About
The challenge of a seemingly genocidal God who commands ruthless warfare has bewildered Bible readers for generations. The theme of divine war is not limited to the Old Testament Historical Books, however. It is also prevalent in the Prophets and Wisdom literature as well. Yet it doesn't stop there. The New Testament book of Revelation is also full of similar imagery. The questions we are left with multiply. These controversial yet theologically vital issues call for a thorough interpretation, especially given a long history of misinterpretation and misappropriation of these texts. Yet this book does more. A range of expert contributors engage in a multidisciplinary approach that considers the issue from a variety of perspectives: biblical, ethical, philosophical and theological. -- Back Cover.
