Résumé :
|
"The Bible's symbolic language is theological, but it is very distinct from the theological language of Greco-Roman, medieval, or modern culture. Nevertheless, it is the Bible's symbolic language that is most expressive and best able to engage the cultures where the Christian faith is growing most rapidly today, such as those in Asia and in Africa. Indeed, such symbolic language may now also be well-suited to engaging Western societies, which are beginning to move away from the rationalist mindset that has dulled religious sensibilities for so long." "In proposing a way to classify the Bible's symbols, Grelot shows how its language works to make perceptible that which, in the purpose of God, cannot otherwise be explained. Book jacket."--R├®sum├® de l'├®diteur. "The Bible's symbolic language is theological, but it is very distinct from the theological language of Greco-Roman, medieval, or modern culture.
