Spirit and Life: Interpreting the Bible in Ordinary Time is the newest book by well-known and respected scholar and author Scott Hahn. Published by Emmaus Road, these nine essays provide fresh insights into important biblical themes. Topics in this volume include:
- Scripture as God s symphony
- Pope Benedict s Scripture-based teaching on the person and prayer of Jesus
- The connection of Scripture, liturgy, and the Church
- The liturgical sense of God s Word
- The theme of fulfillment in Matthew s Gospel
- Church authority within a scriptural context
- A biblical approach to the Pentecostal phenomena
- A paradox? Christ as Majestic Judge vs. Christ as the Lamb
Hahn shows that Scripture is not a dead letter but rather a great, living gift from God. Indeed, it is spirit and life to those who will unwrap and embrace it. Spirit and Life: Interpreting the Bible in Ordinary Time provides the reader with a greater appreciation of the Living Word.
