Apocalypse by Eric Giacometti
There has never been a book provoking more delirium, foolishness and irrational movements, without any relationship to Jesus Christ than the Book of Revelation]. - Jacques Ellul, Introduction Known for his trenchant critique of modernity and of those Christians who celebrate their captivity to it, Ellul here cuts to the heart of the theological intention of the Book of Revelation, and thereby reveals the liberating gospel in all its offensiveness. Neither an exhaustive commentary nor a work of historical-exegetical analysis, Apocalypse is a provocative, independent interpretation. Ellul seeks to rescue Revelation from the reassuring and orthodox banality to which commentators often reduce it. The goal is to perceive the totality of the book in its movement and structure. Architecture in movement is the key to understanding Revelation's puzzling but simple message. This edition also comes with a new foreword by Jacob Marques Rollison who provides an essential aid for guiding readers through Ellul's thorough engagement with Revelation.A former journalist for Le Parisien, Eric Giacometti spent several years uncovering some of France's biggest medical scandals. He also spent the end of the 1990s investigating Freemasonry, a subject he then explored in fiction with his writing partner, Jacques Ravenne.
