They make clear that the political and psychological connotations of sacrificial language have in modern times given rise to great unease, and examine, in particular, the Catholic tradition of the eucharistic sacrifice, a tradition that was vigorously challenged at the Reformation. Looking at the various controversies from a variety of perspectives, the contributions to the book have a pronounced ecumenical slant, and illuminate sacrifice at the major, formative moments in history, from Old Testament times to contemporary theology.  aTheology  aAtonement History of doctrines  aSacrifice -- Biblical teaching4 uhttps://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15649/61.jpgyCover Image
