So That God May Be All in All: The Apocalyptic Message Od 1 Corinthians 15,12-34Paperback, 1 January 1998

Passages such as 1 Cor 15, 12-34 have been a rich source for theological reflection on Christology, eschatology, and the resurrection, especially during the formative period of the Church. Today, this and similar passages have lost their influence in Catholic theological reflection, catechesis, and preaching, perhaps because of their apocalyptic cosmology and eschatology. Contemporary scholars are attempting to define, understand and reappropriate apocalyptic theology for the life of the Church. This study continues this process by demonstrating that 1 Cor 15, 12-34 is an expression of apocalyptic theology and that it is only in understanding it as such that we can unlock he integrity and power of its message.
