The Crucifixion of the Warrior God: Interpreting the Old Testament's Violent Portraits of God in Light of the Cross, Volume 1 & 2

Exploring the contrast between violent portrayals of God in Scripture and the non-violent nature revealed through Christ's crucifixion, Gregory A. Boyd introduces a "cruciform hermeneutic." In this two-volume work, he presents a theological framework that reframes these violent depictions, demonstrating how they ultimately point to God's self-sacrificial love. Boyd's interpretation seeks to subvert the violence in Scripture, offering a profound understanding of divine love as embodied in the crucified Christ.
