Customer Reviews

A very good review. . .

. . .to counter some of the silliness out there (Jenkins and LaHaye) about the End Times. Fr. William Kurz, SJ, is a noted Catholic New Testament scholar who trained at Yale University and has taught for decades at Marquette University. In this volume, created not for the scholar, but rather for the "Catholic in the Pew", he traces what the Church has REALLY taught about "Last Things", beginning NOT with Revelation -- but rather with Genesis! Throughout, Fr. Kurz expresses a keen grasp of Scripture and biblical interpretation and shows the historically minded Christian the facts of the matter -- rather than fundamentalist hysteria. A well-done book which I have recommended to others.
