Description
This title explores how the Bible may be appropriately used in public theology. It looks at types of modern practical theology with specific emphasis on the use of the Bible; then juxtaposes these with a leading 19th-century public 'theologian', John Ruskin; and, finally, assesses the contribution of this analysis to a modern issue of public importance - the Israel-Palestine question.
