Six essays explore the intersections of political movements and biblical exegesis. Individual contributions examine English political theorists' use of the Bible in the context of secularisation, analyse the theological discussion of discoveries in the New World in a context of fraught Jewish-Christian relations in Europe and dissect millennarian preaching in the lead up to the Crimean War. Others investigate the anti-imperialist use of the Bible in southern Africa, compare Spanish and British biblicisation techniques and trace the effects of biblically-rooted articulations of nationalism on the development of Hinduism's relationship to the Vedas. Contributors include: Yvonne Sherwood, Ana Valdez, Mark Somos, Andrew Mein, Hendrik Bosman and Hugh Pyper. 410 0$aBiblical interpretation series ;$vv. 126. 606 $aChristianity and politics$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aChristianity and politics$xHistory. 676 $a220.09 701 $aCrouch$b Carly L$g(Carly Lorraine),$f1982-$0931432 701 $aSto?kl$b Jonathan$f1977-$0956417 701 $aQuine$b Cat$0956418 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453816703321 996 $aIn the name of God$92165648 997 $aUNINA
