Download or read book Christian Symbolism Classic Reprint written by Mrs. Henry Jenner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Symbolism There were always two classes of symbols, fixed and arbitrary. In the one Class emblems acquired a fixed meaning, the relation Of which to the thing signified is not always traceable, though in many cases it is fairly obvious. There is no reason on the face of it why a Fish should signify Christ, or a palm-branch martyrdom and the application of the Four Living Creatures of Ezekiel and the Apocalypse to the Four Evan gelists does not explain itself very easily. Yet these and many others acquired the value Of Egyptian ideographs, and, explainable or not, were generally accepted with meanings as definite as words. This class merges by imperceptible degrees into the Class Of types, metaphors and allegories, to which every man may attach the meaning that seems good to him, and whose value depends upon their applicability.

Download or read book An Introduction to Early Christian Symbolism Classic Reprint written by William Palmer and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Early Christian Symbolism Of the Fourteen Compositions described in the following pages, the first alone occurs as a whole in the "Catacombs" (in the Cemetery of S. Callistus): and it was this which suggested to the Author the idea of putting together other Compositions in a somewhat similar form, like triptychs, with a systematic arrangement of subjects. The Paintings and Glasses of these fourteen Compositions exhibit to the eye the Christianity of the third century, though possibly some one or other of them may belong to the second, and several of them certainly belong to the fourth. Such as belong to the fourth, if later than the accession of Constantine but still contemporary with the tombs at which they occur, are distinguishable by the aureole round the heads of the figures, and sometimes by other signs, such as the presence of the monogram, or the presence or vicinity of dates and names of Consuls, &c.

Download or read book On Earth as it is in Heaven written by Margaret Barker and published by Classic Reprints. This book was released on 2009-06 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As more and more is being discovered about the beginnings of Christianity, a whole new understanding of the context of Christian origins is emerging. Any serious student now needs a knowledge of the traditions of the temple. This book, a supplement to Margaret Barker's The Gate of Heaven: The History and Symbolism of the Temple in Jerusalem, breaks further new ground, showing how the symbols and rituals of the temple shaped the lives of the early Christians, and illustrates the striking relevance of temple theology to the New Testament. The influence of the temple cult has to be reconstructed by drawing on the increasing number of non-biblical texts now available. These include those written in the early churches; fragments from among the Dead Sea Scrolls; and Jewish texts written in the early Christian period. Piece by piece the world of the temple is emerging from this material. Through this close study of the Pseudepigrapha and other non-canonical writings, Margaret Barker examines four symbols of temple theology: Light, Life, Blood, and the Robes of Glory. She shows how details missing from the Old Testament descriptions can be recovered from other ancient texts to throw new light upon many significant passages of the Bible. This is a reprint of the volume published by T. & T. Clark in 1995.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History Principles and Practice of Symbolism in Christian Art While pictorial and sculptured forms have their undoubted value as exponents of truth, we must not forget that there is a possibility of such use degenerating into mere picture worship, as may be very evidently seen in the adoration paid by the Russian peasantry to their sacred pictures.

Download or read book The Gospel and the Catholic Church written by Michael Ramsey and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reissue of Archbishop Ramsey s classic theological study of Anglican views of the church is important for students of ecumenism, and for those concerned with the relationship between Christ and the church in the New Testament. Although some of the book is dated, its conviction that the church s meaning lies in its fulfillment of the sufferings of Christ and that every part of its history is intelligible in terms of the Passion remains perceptive and challenging. Examining Scripture, doctrine, and history, Ramsey paints an intricate portrait of the church as an example of Christ s death and resurrection. He explores Eastern orthodox doctrine; explains the purposes and preconditions of the Reformation; and calls for a renewal of liturgical worship and reconciliation within the communion of the saints. Originally published in 1936 while he was serving as sub-warden of Lincoln Theological College, this was Ramsey s first book. After more than seventy years, its wisdom concerning the relationship between Catholic and Evangelical, and the underlying complementarities and tensions which characterize the Anglican tradition, remains theologically sound and biblically astute.
