Book Description
This study explores in literalism and inerrancy as the interpretive basis of some Jewish, Christian, and Muslim justifications of acts of violence. In the end, an argument is made, on historical, scriptural, moral and theological grounds, rejecting Holy War as a perversion of God’s creation.
