A Biblical scholar reveals why our popular understanding of the Apocalypse is all wrong—and why that matters.

What The Reviewers Say

David Dark,
The Washington Post
Having once held a fundamentalist read on Revelation himself, Ehrman knows feelingly what a toxic conception of God, self and others can do to a person. He’s also vigilantly persuasive concerning the horrors wrought by particular readings of Revelation in the corridors of power.

Kirkus
Ehrman hopes to look beyond the traditional end-times mentality to question its very view of Christ and his followers.

Publishers Weekly
Ambitious but uneven.
