Depicting and analyzing what the Christian tradition has to say about the flesh of Christians in relation to that of Christ, the book shows that some kinds of fleshly activity conform well to being a Christian, while others are in tension with it. But to lead a Christian life is to be unconstrained by ordinary ethical norms. Arguing that no particular case of fleshly activity is forbidden, Paul J. Griffiths illustrates his message through extended case studies of what it is for Christians to eat, to clothe themselves, and to engage in physical intimacy. 606 $aFlesh (Theology) 606 $aHuman body$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 615 0$aFlesh (Theology) 615 0$aHuman body$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 676 $a233.5 700 $aGriffiths$b Paul J., $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0994255 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793165403321 996 $aChristian Flesh$93700300 997 $aUNINA
