About the Author
James Stuart Russell was a nineteenth-century Scottish theologian and author whose work explored biblical prophecy, eschatology, and the interpretation of New Testament passages concerning Christ’s return. He is best known for Parousia: The New Testament Doctrine of Our Lord's Second Coming, a landmark study associated with preterist readings of prophecy. Russell’s scholarship challenged prevailing assumptions about the timing and fulfillment of biblical predictions, encouraging readers to reconsider the historical context of early Christian texts. His writing continues to attract theologians, historians, and students of Christian doctrine interested in eschatological interpretation and the development of prophetic thought.
