Description
Historically, the Old Testament's Song of Songs has always been interpreted as a mystical hymn of God's love for his people. More recently, it has been seen as a collection of secular love songs that Jewish and Christian tradition subsequently spiritualized. In this book Christos Yannaras unites both approaches in a powerful series of poetic images that invite us to see sexuality and spirituality as complementary to each other. We can choose how we lead our lives: according to the mode of nature or according to the mode of life. Yannaras takes us on a provocative journey that gives us insights into the unexplored nature of our being. He accompanies us through time and space, showing us how to reach out beyond self to radiant otherness.
