Abstract
This paper interrogates the liberationist vision of Sandford’s “Luxury Communist Jesus,” the reactionary Jesus of Myles’ “Opiate of Christ” and the iPperialist chronologies of Wan·s ´ReÁections on EPpireµ in relation to broader questions concerning the ambiguities of scriptural hermeneutics and the complex relationship of Christianity to capitalism.
