Roadmap, myth, or history? The Book of Revelation draws readers and
repels them. It offers some people hope and instills fear in
others. In this volume of the new AABS series Frederick W. Schmidt,
also the series editor, explores the approaches that have dominated
the interpretation of John's Apocalypse and offers the reader an
accessible means of understanding and evaluating them. With this
grounding in hand, Schmidt explores how Revelation can shape our
understanding of God, and nurture our spiritual lives in unexpected
ways. Leaving behind left-behind theology, Schmidt offers instead
an approach that allows this obscure, almost opaque text to speak
to us anew about God, faith, hope, and justice. Books in this
series, co-sponsored by the Anglican Association of Biblical
Scholars, are written in accessible language, sensitive to the
needs of people who have little or no experience in reading the
Bible. Each book focuses on exploring the historical and critical
background, as well as how the biblical texts written centuries ago
can still speak to readers today.
