The Image of God as a Father in the Bible (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the multifaceted concept of the Fatherhood of God as it is presented and developed across Christian theology, history, and contemporary thought. Beginning with an analysis of the biblical foundations of divine fatherhood in both the Old and New Testaments, the work traces the evolution of the concept from early Christian thought, through the theological debates of the Patristic and medieval periods, to the profound implications of the Reformation and Enlightenment. The image of God as Father is then explored in light of modern theological movements such as feminist theology, liberation theology, and postmodernism, highlighting their critiques and reimaginings of the paternal metaphor. The book also examines the role of divine fatherhood in global Christian mission, interfaith dialogue, and the broader implications for social justice, ethics, and spirituality in the contemporary world. By engaging with both historical and modern theological perspectives, this book offers a comprehensive and dynamic analysis of how the Fatherhood of God continues to shape Christian identity and mission, while adapting to the evolving needs and challenges of a pluralistic and interconnected world.
