Mark Scarlata: The Cup of Salvation, Gebunden

Klappentext

Wine is a sign and symbol of salvation throughout the Old and New Testaments. Scripture connects wine and vineyards with the presence and blessings of God's kingdom.

In The Cup of Salvation, Mark Scarlata unpacks the significance of wine in the Scriptures, particularly focusing on the theological questions this image raises for us today. In connection with the biblical texts about wine, Scarlata explores contemporary questions around ecology, connection with the land and community, consumerism, the nature of sacraments, and the wise use of God's gifts.

Throughout, Scarlata highlights wine as a means for rediscovering a powerful metaphor that helps us see God's blessing for all humanity, rooted in Christ through the wine he gives as a symbol of salvation for the world.
