Reading Revelation Nonviolently (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780999430651)

The book of Revelation is infamously violent and notoriously difficult to interpret. As a result, millions of Christians shun it. They don't understand it, can't reconcile it with the Gospels, and despise the violence they believe it glorifies and promotes.

In this short, easy-to-read, compellingly argued primer, which is an excerpt from Jesus the Pacifist: A Concise Guide to His Radical Nonviolence (Foreword by Greg Boyd), Fleischer provides a Christ-centered, scripturally based nonviolent interpretation of Revelation. By placing the text in its proper historical, literary, and biblical contexts, he demonstrates that a nonviolent reading is not only possible but theologically responsible.

If you possess a strong commitment to Scripture but desire a more beautiful and hopeful perspective on Revelation, look no further. This book will show you how to appreciate-even love-John's complex, visionary letter.

CAVEAT: If you have read Jesus the Pacifist, you have read Reading Revelation Nonviolently. All of the analysis in Reading Revelation Nonviolently is located in Chapters 5, 6, and 7 of Jesus the Pacifist.
