Apocalypse Against Empire: Theologies of Resistance in Early Judaism
* An innovative study of a turning point in Jewish history---the persecution under Antiochus IV Epiphanes. Reconstructing historical events and key players during this traumatic time, Portier-Young views the Book of Daniel, the Apocalypse of Weeks, and the Book of Dreams as antidotes to Roman propaganda, aiming to reinvigorate the faith and hope of an oppressed people. 488 pages, softcover from Eerdmans.
