Beschreibung

This book is the first time that the 1963 Phd thesis by Albert Nolan OP from the Angelicum in Rome has been published. It deals with a title given to Christ that is problematic for many today. It is a title that is used many times in the New Testament and in the liturgy. When Albert initiated this research, he did so for academic purposes and to further his personal theological knowledge (faith seeking understanding) and spiritual growth. The term 'lord' is still very operative in the liturgy and prayer today. The lordship of Christ is a divine function, a saving function and it was given to Jesus by God. The divine functions are functions of ruling, saving, giving life and sending the Holy Spirit. The term lord is purposeful and meaningful divine service for the benefit of all God's People, the entire Church and for all of Creation, not to be equated with male-controlled interpretations and connotations of our current times. The clarification of the concept 'lord' for Jesus has undergone further clarifications since 1963, but the thesis now in book form, makes it clear that Albert was in search of theological clarification and understanding and he succeeded in his undertaking. Albert's findings make it clear that the title is not patriarchal, or sexist and neither exclusive. He underlines that the title 'lord' for Jesus Christ is a function and not a gender concern. The Lordship of Christ is a divine function, a saving function and it was given to Jesus by God. The divine functions are functions of ruling, saving, giving life and sending the Holy Spirit. it was given to Jesus to Jesus by God. The divine functions are functions of ruling, saving, giving life and sending the Holy Spirit. ' From the Introduction by Jennifer Slater.
