Sommario/riassunto |
|
One hundred years ago Bishop Colenso was excommunicated because of his liberal critical views on the inspiration and authority of the Bible. But while in South Africa he worked strenuously for social and political reform. 2003 will mark the revocation of his excommunication in a ceremony in South Africa and this book commemorates that event.

It will appeal not only to the biblical scholar and Christian theologian but also to anyone interes |
