Meaning of Revelation

Meaning of Revelation by Niebuhr, H. Richard. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780020877509.

H. Richard Niebuhrs The Meaning of Revelation is a masterful examination of a central theological concept. Probing the relationship between revelation and personal experience, Niebuhr defines revelation as an "illuminating center" - a center that makes our individual and communal lives intelligible and helps shape personal and group identity. First published in 1941, this classic text has deeply influenced theological movements that still prevail over forty years after his death. This new edition is now enhanced with an introduction by Douglas F. Ottati, which sets The Meaning of Revelation in the context of Niebuhrs other writings and explores its enduring significance.
