Description: As Stuckenbruck shows, an angelomorphic Christology, shared by the author of Revelation and its readers, functions to preserve the author's monotheistic emphasis as well as to emphasize Christ's superiority over the angels--setting the stage for the worship of the Lamb in a monotheistic framework that does not contradict the angelic directive to worship God alone.--Larry Hurtado "Journal of Theological Studies"

Review Quotes:

This is an able and well-argued work. The author's discussion of the relationship between the angels and the Lamb in Revelation is original and persuasive.

--William Adler "Journal of Biblical Literature"
