Trinity - An Interdisciplinary Symposium on the Trinity

Zusatztext No other recent book brings together biblical, systematic and historical contributions ... much of this book provides some long-overdue demythologising of what have become common places of recent theology. For this alone it deserves a warm welcome. Klappentext This interdisciplinary study is the result of an international and ecumenical meeting of nineteen scholars held in New York at Easter 1998: the Trinity Summit. They are experts in fields such as the Bible, ancient Christian writers, ancient Jewish writers, theology, philosophy, art, and preaching. This is a well researched, skillfully argued, and at times provocative volume on the belief at the very heart of Christianity: the Holy Trinity Zusammenfassung Nineteen scholars, experts in a variety of fields - the Bible, ancient Christian writers, ancient Jewish writers, theology, philosophy, art, and preaching - gathered in New York at Easter 1998 for the 'Trinity Summit'. This book, the result of that meeting, is on the belief at the very heart of Christianity: the Holy Trinity.
