Experiencing our Biblical heritage
Roland Edmund Murphy and O. Carm
- U.S.A Hendrickson 2001
- 185tr. Paperback 21cm
Says Roland Murphy in the preface, `I began this series of essays on the Old Testament with an eye to the traditions of the Carmelite rule and way of life,` and he proceeds to focus on key ideas in the Carmelite tradition that have, as well, universal appeal--such as land, prophets, wisdom, prayer, the poor, and mysticism. He unfolds the background of important themes in our biblical heritage--including Speech and Silence, The Psalms and Prayer, and Who Are the Poor?--and reveals their rich contribution to our spiritual experience.
