5.0 out of 5 stars
A book for theologians, but should be required reading,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 'Love your enemies': Jesus' love command in the synoptic gospels and in the early Christian paraenesis (Society for New Testament Studies Monograph Series) (Hardcover)
I loved Piper's other books and have been waiting for a used book seller to price this one reasonably. Great book that outlines various theories on Jesus' command to love your enemies along with Piper's take on it. The Mennonite in me doesn't agree with his rationalization of violence, but he does at least address the issue and doesn't try to say Jesus wasn't serious or that he was exaggerating. The book is very thorough on addressing the many instances of the command to love your enemies and putting them in context with the surrounding scripture.
