So repugnant was the gruesome reality, that a natural tendency prevails to blunt, remove, or deomesticate its scandalous impact. Yet any discussion of a \"theology of the cross\" must be preceded by adequate comprehension of both the nature and extent of this scandal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martin Hengel, Martin Hengle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 080061268X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780800612689\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Augsburg Fortress Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/1977\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.55h x 5.55w x 0.38d","brand":"Martin Hengel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44048342417663,"sku":"9780800612689","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e676b868-7b80-4f58-89db-ba7f09640a12.jpg?v=1684995251","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/crucifixion-martin-hengel-9780800612689","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
