Description: The Apocalypse of John and Liberation Theology in Africa is a rich and multifaceted portrayal of the Apocalypse as a sophisticated code to interpret either history or a response to God in contemporary personal life. This book brings new ways of reading for the liberation of the African continent.
Review Quotes: "Certainly, this is a relevant magnum opus, whose key conceptions--derived from the biblical book of the Revelation of John--are apocalypse, cataclysm, death, and destruction. This book goes a long way in Africanizing the concept of the apocalypse, to the extent that it gives the apocalypse a reflective meaning outside the Hebrew world. It is indeed a welcome read for all biblical and Africanist scholars globally, as it helps us in understanding the twenty-first-century hermeneutical trajectories in the most profound way possible." --Julius Gathogo, Kenyatta University
