About This Book
A series of theological essays that categorizes and interprets the reported miracles of Jesus, treating them as deliberate expressions of his unseen life. Each chapter examines a class of signs—early miracles, unsolicited and solicited healings, intercessory cures, exorcisms, raisings of the dead, control of nature, acts of destruction, the resurrection, and the transfiguration—and reads individual incidents closely to draw moral, spiritual, and metaphysical implications. The writer explores the relation of faith to miraculous action, offers reflections on the interplay of spirit and matter, and considers how these works disclose divine character and the purpose of revelation.
