Revelation

"This series reflects current interpretive ferment marked by growing resistance to the historical-critical project. It holds the promise of asking interpretive questions that are deeply grounded in the primal claims of faith." Walter Brueggemann, Columbia Theological Seminary This commentary, like each in the Brazos Theological Commentary on the Bible, is designed to serve the church through aid in preaching, teaching, study groups, and so forth and demonstrate the continuing intellectual and practical viability of theological interpretation of Scripture. In this addition to the series, Joseph Mangina offers a constructive ecclesiology for the role and mission of the church in the twenty-first century formed by a close examination of Revelation. The general editor for the Brazos Theological Commentary on the Bible is R. R. Reno(Creighton University). Series editors include Robert W. Jenson(Center of Theological Inquiry); Robert Louis Wilken(University of Virginia); Ephraim Radner(Wycliffe College, University of Toronto); Michael Root(Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary); and George Sumner(Wycliffe College, University of Toronto).
