Description: Partakers of the Divine Nature : The History and Development of Deification in the Christian Traditions Author: Michael J. Christensen (ed.) - Jeffery A. Wittung (ed.) Title: Partakers of the Divine Nature : The History and Development of Deification in the Christian Traditions Publication: 24: Fairleigh Dickinson University Press, 2007 Edition: 1st Edition Description: Hardcover. This critical volume focuses on the issue of continuity and discontinuity ofthe Christian concept of theosis, or deification, in the intellectual history of ideas. It addresses the origin, development, and function of theosis from its antecedents in ancient Greek philosophy to its nuanced use in contemporary theological thought. Often seen as a heresy in the Protestant West, the revival of interest in deification in both lay and scholastic circles heralds a return to foundational understandings of salvation in the Christian church before the divisions of East and West, Catholic and Protestant. 325 pp. Fine / Fine.
