Paul M. Blowers

Drama of the Divine Economy: Creator and Creation in Early Christian Theology and Piety

Buch

An introduction to the multiplex relation between Creator and creation as an object both of theological construction and religious devotion in the early church. The book argues that patristic commentators were motivated less by cosmological concerns than the desire to depict creation as the enduring creative and redemptive strategy of the Trinity.
