The bride of Christ

By Claude Chavasse

Subjects: Ehe, Theologie, Urchristentum, Mystical body of Jesus Christ, Mystical body

Description: Chavasse provides one of the most thorough treatments of the Bride of Christ metaphor among the Protestant community, especially in terms of the nuptial elements of the Gospels. While little can be found about the author, his work on this topic stands as a great contribution. He is writing from an Anglican perspective, calling it a meditation on the Book of Common prayer.
