He is as likely to quote Claudel as Aquinas or Origen. His intimate acquaintance with Patristic writings combines with a sympathetic understanding of such Protestant sources as Luther, Calvin, and Barth to yield an admirably ecumenical perspective. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book's title refers to James 1:23-24, which portrays the Word of God as a mirror into which one gazes. The concomitant notion of not only examining the text but also being examined by the Word is a fruitful one for learning how to be more fully nourished by one's study of the Bible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean-Louis Chretien\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0823262316\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780823262311\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fordham University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.10w x 0.70d","brand":"Jean-Louis Chretien","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086981017855,"sku":"9780823262311","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e376c515-ff75-4257-a08f-d3cf0bef380a.jpg?v=1769097615","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/under-the-gaze-of-the-jean-louis-chretien-9780823262311","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
