Revelation is resistance literature, written to instruct early
Christians on how to live as followers of Jesus in the Roman
Empire. The Nonviolent Apocalypse uses modern examples and
scholarship on nonviolence to help illuminate Revelation's
resistance, arguing that Revelation's famously violent visions are
actually acts of nonviolent resistance to the Empire. The visions
form part of Revelation's proclamation of God's way as a just and
life-giving alternative to the system constructed by Rome.
Revelation urges its readers to pursue this radical form of living,
engaging in nonviolent resistance to all that stands in the way of
God's vision for the world.
