Must There be Scapegoats?: Violence and Redemption in the Bible

Forside
Gracewing Publishing, 2000 - 243 sider
"Schwager reverses three millennia of conventional understanding of the Bible as he argues that the God of the Old Testament is not a God of violence; that Jesus sacrifice is not an act of appeasement of the Father; and that the suffering and death of an infinite victim is not compensation for an infinite offence against God."-- Back cover.
