Biblical Demonology (1994)

A Study of Spiritual Forces at Work Today A classic work on the subject of demons and the spirit world, Biblical Demonology explores the scriptural teaching on satanic forces in a systematic fashion. After a thorough introduction on the origin of biblical demonology and a discussion on the reality and identity of demons, Merrill F. Unger tackles several specific practices of demonology, including demon possession, magic, divination, and deliverance from demonic oppression. Recognized as one of the twentieth century's most influential evangelical Bible scholars, Unger provides a study of the invisible spiritual forces behind the scenes of contemporary history that is scholarly yet accessible to both Christian leaders and Christian readers. "The careful reading of this scholarly work will illuminate many passages in the Word of God ordinarily passed over or misinterpreted...It will remain for many years to come the standard treatment of biblical demonology..."
