Opis

Building on the author's much acclaimed study "Ascension and Ecclesia", this book places the doctrine of the ascension in the context of the biblical narrative of descent and ascent, in order to shed light on 'the upward call of God in Christ Jesus and on the eucharistic community that hears and answers that call.
