Construing the Cross

Více o knize

Exploring the early interpretations of the cross, this book delves into the typology of Passover as a foundational understanding of Christ's passion. It re-evaluates sacrificial imagery and traces the identification of the cross with the Tree of Life through history, including connections to the Eden narrative. The author argues for imaginative insights into the significance of the cross, blending theological analysis with literary and liturgical reflections, ultimately emphasizing a paradoxical focus on life rather than death.
