Sanctified Aggression (Journal For The Study Of The Old Testament Supplement Series)
Jonneke Bekkenkamp, Yvonne Sherwood, Andrew Mein, Claudia V. CampPaperback 2005-01-01
Publisher Description
Working from the premise that biblical, Jewish, and Christian texts continue to resonate, inspire, and misfire, these essays explore how these vocabularies and symbols have influenced events from the Holocaust to Columbine. The collective conclusion is that it is not possible to control biblical and religious violence by simply identifying canonical trouble-spots, then fencing them off with barbed wire or holding peace summits around them.
