Fabián Santiago

The Fellowship of the Throne in John's Apocalypse (eBook, ePUB)

A Theo-Political Inquiry into Authority and Society and their Christological Bond

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

What relevance does the book of Revelation hold for our lived reality within secular societies? In this book, Dr Fabián Santiago explores concepts of authority, society, and political power against the backdrop of the Apocalypse and in conversation with Oliver O'Donovan's political theology. Santiago offers a reading of Revelation that does not bypass its exegetical complexities, but instead allows for new possibilities of engagement. He investigates the conception of authority presented in Revelation - a conception centered on the throne of God and transformed by the exalted Jesus - and argues that this divine authority ultimately correlates with the Fellowship of the Throne, a liturgical community mediated by the risen Christ. An excellent resource for students of political theory and theology, Christology, and biblical narrative, this book offers a powerful theo-political critique of secular discourse on the nature of political authority.
