| Abstract
|
:
|
Biblical scholar and theologian Walter Wink reformulates ancient religious concepts, such as angels and demons, principalities and powers, and God and Satan in light of current knowledge. Wink's theology is shaped by his involvement in the fight against apartheid in South Africa, his involvement in the civil rights movement, and his study of the Bible.
