The author of the book of Revelation struggled, as we do today, to
live out a Christian faith in the context of an empire that
trampled and destroyed the earth and its creatures. In this book,
Micah D. Kiel will look at how and why Revelation was written,
along with how it has been interpreted across the centuries, to
come to an understanding of its potential contribution to a modern
environmental ethic. While the book of Revelation is replete with
images of destruction of the earth, Kiel shows readers, through
Revelation's ancient context, a message of hope that calls for the
care of and respect for the environment.
