Recenzii
"Bauckham reminds the reader that, as Creator, God delights in and cares for all creation. ... He wishes to recover the biblical view of human solidarity with the rest of creation by establishing creation's own inherent value." --Bill Walker, five-star review, Christianity Today (Dec. 2011)
"A significant biblical, theological, and historical resource for the desperately needed 'greening' of the Christian faith. Bauckham's collection deserves very wide attention." --David P. Gushee, Distinguished University Professor of Christian Ethics and Director, Center for Theology and Public Life, Mercer University
"Filled with intelligence and serious scholarship, Living with Other Creatures carries a deeply important message. A very valuable contribution." --Roger S. Gottlieb, author of Engaging Voices: Tales of Morality and Meaning in an Age of Global Warming and A Greener Faith ook of Revelation
"In this exciting volume, Bauckham weaves together Jesus' teaching of the kingdom of God, the Jewish traditions of animal compassion, St. Francis, the Apocalypse, and Christian mystics to make the case that creation's praise of God--independent of humans--is foundational to the Christian tradition. The result is an important, highly recommended reading of the biblical mandate for ethical engagement in today's ecological crises." --Barbara Rossing, Professor of New Testament, Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago and author of The Rapture Exposed: The Message of Hope in the Book of Revelation
[Bauckham] aptly demonstrates that humanity is causing an ecological catastrophe that has been predicated on theological convictions. For this crisis to be remedied, it is necessary for Christians to shift their ecological outlook. -- Nick Elder, Marquette University -- Theological Book Review
... a fine supplementary text in seminaries and graduate level classes. -- Christina Richie, Boston College -- Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society
... contributes toward opening exegetical and theological vistas that have previously been closed. -- J. David Stark, Adjunct Online Professor of Judeo-Christian Studies -- Stone-Campbell Journal

Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Richard Bauckham offers a fresh approach to the relationship between humanity and creation and our responsibility before God to steward wisely. Looking carefully at biblical texts Bauckham reads them through an ecological lens which both enriches our own reading of them and encourages us to look more closely at our world.
