You'll find nearly everything the Bible has to say about the end in the Book of Revelation: a mystifying prophecy filled with bizarre symbolism, violent imagery, mangled syntax, confounding contradictions, and very firm ideas about the horrors that await us all. But whether you understand the book as a literal description of what will soon come to pass, interpret it as a metaphorical expression of hope for those suffering now, or only recognize its highlights from pop culture, what you think Revelation reveals...is almost certainly wrong. In Armageddon, acclaimed New Testament authority Bart D. Ehrman delves into the most misunderstood--and possibly the most dangerous--book of the Bible, exploring the horrifying social and political consequences of expecting an imminent apocalypse and offering a fascinating tour through three millennia of Judeo-Christian thinking about how our world will end. By turns hilarious, moving, troubling, and provocative, Armageddon presents inspiring insights into how to live our lives in the face of an uncertain future and reveals what the Bible really says about the end"-- $c Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20240425. 630 $a Bible $x Prophecies. 650 $a Armageddon $x Biblical teaching. 650 $a End of the world $x Biblical teaching. 655 7 $a Informational works. 941 $a 1 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20240705010032.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D3D02CCA3A9311EF8D1FA94A4FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
