This book examines its use in theology today. It turns to two contemporary Jesuits: Jon Sobrino (Liberation theologian) and Pope Francis (Representative of the theology of the people). From the comparative analysis of their understanding of the expression and considering new forms of human suffering as well as the sufferings of all of creation nowadays, this book suggests that the 'preferential option for the poor' should be replaced in theology today by 'compassion for the vulnerable'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michel Simo Temgo Scj\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1984590006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781984590008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Xlibris UK\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/29\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 422\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.94d","brand":"Michel Simo Temgo Scj","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43940631380223,"sku":"9781984590008","price":24.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_1024fd37-c282-45de-95b6-7957af32112a.jpg?v=1681448299","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jon-sobrino-and-pope-francis-michel-simo-temgo-scj-9781984590008","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
