Description

The title ‘the
Son of Man’ evokes the different aspects of the whole Christ: the humanity
and divinity of Christ, his earthly ministry, his sacramental presence, and
the eschatological consummation of his work. It is also a term of
relationship, suggestive of both the relations constitutive of the life of
the Holy Trinity, and  also of the way
that our knowing and loving the Son of Man is always an invitation to
communion – with the Triune God, as the Body of Christ, and for the life of
the world.

Contributors to this collection explore some of the many registers of the
mystery of Christ, both historically and thematically. Contributors include
some of today’s leading theological thinkers, including NT Wright, Rowan
Williams, Lydia Schumacher, Kallistos Wareliver and Oliver O’Donovan. With
poetic reflections from Malcolm Guite.

Chapters include:

“Son of Man and the New Creation” (NT Wright),
“The Son of Man in the Gospel of John” (John Behr),
“Sound and Silence in Augustine’s Christological Exegesis” (Carol
Harrison),
“According to the Flesh?: The Problem of Knowing Christ in
Chalcedonian Perspective” (Ian Mcfarland),
“Christ and the Moral Life” (Oliver O’Donovan),
“Christ and the Poetic Imagination” (Malcolm Guite)
