Description
Interpreting Jesus explores Christian belief in the risen Jesus as Son of God and Savior of the world, focusing on the significance of his crucifixion and resurrection. This Christology draws on traditional teaching and scripture scholarship to clarify the original meaning and ongoing relevance of this central Christian doctrine.
The book delves into the theological implications of key symbols associated with Jesus' death and resurrection, including the Shroud of Turin. It also examines the redemptive symbolism of his blood, a theme that has been largely neglected in contemporary Christology. By returning to these aspects of Jesus' story, Father O'Collins aims to provide a deeper understanding of Christian faith.
This work represents a mature culmination of earlier writings on Jesus Christ by Father O'Collins and is intended for those seeking to deepen their understanding of the core of Christian belief.
