Book Description

October 27, 2008
This is the fourth annual volume of the remarkably popular journal of biblical theology edited by Scott Hahn and his St. Paul Center for Biblical Theology. This volume features important new works by Hahn, Gary Anderson, John Cavadini, Brant Pitre, among others. Inspired by the ground-breaking work of Yves Congar and Jean Danielou, this volume includes original and thought-provoking contributions on such topics as: the Tabernacle and the origins of Christian mysticism; Jesus self-consciousness of being the new Temple and the new High Priest; and the doctrine of the indwelling of the Trinity in the soul; Hahn contributes a new perspective on the Gospel of John, showing how Israel's Temple and feasts are fulfilled in Christ and the sacraments of the Church. As the editors write in their introduction to this volume: The Temple theme is perhaps the richest in all of biblical theology, embracing the mysteries of Christ, Church, and Kingdom; liturgy, sacraments, and priesthood; salvation, sanctification, and divine filiation. These are the beautiful mysteries we contemplate in this volume of Letter & Spirit.

This review is from: Letter & Spirit, Vol. 4: Temple and Contemplation: God's Presence in the Cosmos, Church, and Human Heart (A Journal of Catholic Biblical Theology) (Paperback)
I look forward every year to the Release of the Letter and Spirit Journal. This years's edition (fourth) is a superb work of Scriptural scholarship and synthesis. I am a particularly impressed by Dr Brant Petre's contribution to this edition as well as his work in general. Dr.Scott Hahn and the people at St Paul Center for Biblical Theology are to be highly commended for this addition to their invaluable work in presenting Biblical scholarship to the average pew dweller. Well done!
