| Sumario: | "In 1960, when Images of the Church in the New Testament was first published, there was nothing quite like it. Even forty years later, it remains unparalleled, much less surpassed. Among those conversant with English-speaking biblical scholarship, it still springs immediately to mind in discussions of ecclesiology - the study of the church. Unlike its nearest kin thematically and in influence, Avery Dulles' Models of the Church (1874, 1987), Images of the Church is not a contribution to doctrinal systematics. It is, instead, an exercise in the replenishment of theological imagination: a comprehensive study of nearly 100 metaphors or analogies for the church in the New Testament. This is no mere register or dry compendium of tropes."--Jacket |
