| Résumé : |
The political interpretation of the Bible has many pitfalls for the unwary. It is all too easy to read our own prejudices into the text, and much harder to move intelligently, without anachronism, between the political societies of biblical times and the very different societies of today. The enduring value of The Bible in Politics is that it teaches the reader how to read the Bible politically, and so gain an understanding of the social relevance of the Bible that is more disciplined, more informed, more imaginative and more politically fruitful. For this second edition, Richard Bauckham provides a substantial new introduction, dealing with pressing contemporary concerns such as globalization and climate change, and making this book essential reading for a new generation of Christians who want to be effective instruments of God's will, both locally and globally, today. |
