Abstract:
Deep incarnation in recent theology -- Irenaeus and the earthly incarnation of the Word -- Athanasius on the depths of the incarnation -- Karl Rahner on incarnation in an evolutionary world -- The cross: sacrament of God's redemptive suffering with creatures.
Abstract:
"Based on the Duffy Lectures, a yearly lecture series at Boston College, this short book explores the theme of 'Deep Incarnation' as a way of making connections between incarnation and the whole of creation, including the costs built into our evolutionary world. The key question of 'Deep Incarnation,' for Edwards, is: 'What relationship is there between the wider natural world, the world of galaxies and stars, mountains and seas, bacteria, plants and animals, and the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ?'"--
