| Description: |
O'Collins examines Augustine's thought on Christ's resurrection and the reception of those ideas in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. He evaluates Augustine's works to present the central importance of faith in Jesus' resurrection from the dead, the agency of Christ's own resurrection, the nature of his risen existence, the impact of his resurrection on others, and his mediatory role as the risen High Priest. He then unpicks Augustine's rhetorical justification for the resurrection of Christ: evidence form creation, human history, and the desires of all human beings. This innovative work illustrates the enduring significance of Augustine's teaching and apologetic for the resurrection, and updates, augments, and corrects what Augustine believed. |
