Infanticide. Holy war. Divine wrath. Violence in the Old Testament has long been a stumbling block for Christians and skeptics alike. Yet conventional efforts to understand this aspect of Scripturewhether by downplaying it as allegory or a relic of primitive cultures, or by dismissing the authority of Scripture altogethertend to raise more questions than they answer. God Is a Man of War offers a fresh interpretation of Old Testament accounts of violence by exploring them through the twofold lens of Orthodox tradition and historical context. Instead of avoiding or invalidating problem passages out of discomfort, Fr. Stephen De Young inquires into what they reveal about the nature of Christ and His creation. In doing so, this book bears witness to a world filled not only with pain and sufferingoften of human makingbut also with the love of God, poured out through the endless centuries and generations of human strife that preceded and necessitated the Incarnation of Christ.
