What is the meaning of history?
The Christian revelation provides a vantage point above and beyond history, a seat on the balcony, from which the historical drama may be recognized as a meaningful part of God's divine plan. "By faith we understand," says the author of the letter to the Hebrews. By faith, man is "given" a divine standpoint from which to interpret reality.
The Biblical Meaning of History by Siegfried J. Schwantes presents a Christian view of history rich in meaning whereas other views see only chaos. It is concerned not only with the process of history but with its goal. It makes sense. There is no more satisfying view.
