The Invisible Dimension: Spirit-Beings, the Afterlife, and Ghosts - Paperback

by Matthew D. Arnold (Author)

"In this fascinating and eye-opening study, Matt Arnold offers a mind-expanding tour of the Bible's supernatural world. What's so refreshing is that he allows scripture to speak in its own terms, leading to concepts that challenge some widely held Christian beliefs. The exhaustive research, sensitive approach, and multiple "aha!" moments make this an adventure of a book."

- Peter Laws, author of the Matt Hunter thriller series and The Frighteners: Why We Love Monsters, Ghosts, Death, and Gore, as well as the host of Frightful podcast

"People have always speculated that there might be more than just what we can see and touch-whether it is angels looking out for us, demons trying to frustrate us, or our dead relatives wanting to send us messages. Many Christians regard all this as an outdated embarrassment, while others denounce such interest as the work of the devil (and meanwhile, physicists now talk of multiple dimensions as a likely reality). Matt Arnold is a well-informed guide to these esoteric topics, offering insights that may be surprising, while remaining always faithful to what the Bible actually says."

- John Drane, author of Introduction to the Old Testament and Introduction to the New Testament, and Olive Drane, author of Through the Eyes of a Child

"Matt Arnold does something very different in this volume, going back to the biblical texts and digging deep to understand them in their own contexts. The supernatural phenomena Arnold describes offer new scriptural insights into a reality filled with wonder and enchantment."

-John W. Morehead, co-editor of The Paranormal and Popular Culture and The Oxford Handbook of Biblical Monsters
