This intriguing work explores the meaning of the dreams and visions found in the Bible and how to use the author's unique methodology for interpreting and understanding dreams.

All of us dream, but few of us know how to interpret our dreams and how to connect our dreaming to our spirituality. While most paths to heightened spiritual awareness (prayer, meditation, good deeds, and social action) require us to reach out and embrace them, dreams come to us without explanation and, all too often, remain unexplored and unexplained.

Seymour Rossel examines the prophetic spirit in dreaming that has transformed human beings through the ages. He demonstrates, too, the Bible's power to reshape and transform us, especially during our most momentous life passages. In this sense, it has been said, God reaches out to us through dreams bringing us guidance, sustaining and nourishing our spirits, healing and refreshing us.

The author explores significant questions:

� Can ancient methods of dream interpretation be meaningful for us today?

� Can today's dreamers experience prophetic dreams?

� Are the dreams in the Bible actually models for our own dreams?

� Do dreams bring us "the word of God"?

� Are we prepared to hear the messages in our dreams?

An ancient Sage once said: "A dream not interpreted is like a letter not read."

If there is a lot of "D"-mail (Dream mail) in your life going unanswered, "Bible Dreams" may help you retrieve your messages.

If you are fascinated by the dreams and visions in the Bible, "Bible Dreams" will enable you to understand them in new and unexpected ways, helping you to interpret your own significant dreams at the same time.
