Truly Divine And Truly Human by Spck
Traces the story of how Christians came to proclaim Jesus of Nazareth as both 'truly divine' and 'truly human'. This title examines the controversies that led up to the first seven ecumenical councils, the councils themselves, the decisions they made, the key theologians involved and the cities in which the councils were held.
"* 'An admirably lucid account of the Councils' story, their achievements and vicissitudes, which will help readers to grasp both the issues at stake and the sometimes strange circumstances in which they were discussed and even settled, at least for the time being' Professor Emeritas Leslie Houlden, Kings College, London * 'There is a real need for a popular theological study in English of all seven early ecumenical councils... Stephen Need here offers this study. In addition, he makes a still more important move: to consider the significance of these councils for the different churches today and for the relations between them.' Dr Sara Parvis, University of Edinburgh"
Stephen W. Need has taught New Testament Studies and Early Christianity for many years and is currently Dean of St. George's College Jerusalem.
