Description

Explore the complex connection between religion and politics in this ambitious work from Routledge. Deity and Domination examines how popular images of God, such as King, Lord, and Judge, function as political concepts. By looking at how terms like might, majesty, dominion, and power apply to both the divine and the state, this book provides a deep look into the 19th and 20th centuries. This text investigates the analogy between divine and civil government. It asks important questions about the relationship between religious imagery and political contexts. Readers will gain insight into which images of God can be used by Christians in modern times. It is an essential read for those interested in church history and the way theological concepts influence political thought.
