An Apology for Millennial Doctrine: In the Form in Which It Was Entertained by the Primitive Church

Meer over het boek

This groundbreaking work challenges conventional thinking about the early Christian church and its beliefs around the end times. Drawing extensively on ancient sources, Siri argues that the millenarian ideas espoused by many early Christian communities were not the result of a misguided or primitive worldview, as is often assumed, but were in fact an important and integral part of Christian thought. Combining meticulous scholarship with clear and accessible prose, this book will appeal to anyone interested in the history of Christianity or the development of religious ideas more generally.
