Description

"Justo Gonzalez discusses how the Book of Revelation deals with the cultural conflicts of the first century - which were also political and economic in nature. He demonstrates how these conflicts are not so different from those we face today, from the inequities of the global economy to the incivilities of the "culture wars."" "For preachers and pastors, students and Bible study groups, and all those concerned with the message of Revelation today, For the Healing of the Nations is a book of challenge, hope, and reconciliation."--Jacket.
