This significant new work of Christology-- a full-scale systematic study of the mysteries of the life of Jesus-- analyzes the Incarnation, Mariology, the virginal conception, the apostolic life and teaching, transfiguration and miracles, and the atoning death and glorification of Christ, presented in clear and accessible form. The author's longstanding study of historical exegesis, classical patristic doctrine, and modern Christological controversies is present in the background and gives rise to a deeply integrated theological portrait. This book is the fruit of a lifetime of learning and teaching but also of meditating profoundly on the mystery of Jesus Christ.
