Overview

John Howard Yoder was one of the major theologians of the late twentieth century. He wrote faithfully and with theological depth, particularly on the ethics of nonviolence and peacemaking. Before his sudden death, Yoder planned the essays and structure of The War of the Lamb, which he intended to be his last work. Now two leading interpreters of Yoder bring the work to fruition.The book covers pacifism, just war theory, and just peacemaking theory. It crystallizes Yoder's argument that his proposed Christian ethics was/is not sectarian and a matter of withdrawal. Yoder also clearly argues that Christian just war and Christian pacifist traditions are basically compatible--and more specifically, that the Christian just war tradition itself presumes against all violence. Theology and ethics professors, students, and scholars will value this final work from Yoder.
