Meaning Of The City
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Jacques Ellul, A Member Of The Law Faculty At The University Of Bordeaux, Is Increasingly Being Recognized As A Brilliant And Penetrating Commentator On The Relationship Between Theology And Sociology. In The Meaning Of The City He Presents What He Finds In The Bible A Sophisticated, Coherent Theology Of The City Fully Applicable To Today'S Urbanized Society. Ellul Believes That The City Symbolizes The Supreme Work Of Man And, As Such, Represents Man'S Ultimate Rejection Of God. Therefore It Is The City, Where Lies Man'S Rebellious Heart, That Must Be Reformed. The Author Stresses The Fact That The Bible Does Not Find Man'S Fulfillment In A Return To An Idyllic Eden, But Points Rather To A Life Of Communion With The Savior In The City Transfigured. The Meaning Of The City, Says John Wilkinson In His Introductory Essay To The Book, Is The Theological Counterpoint To Ellul'S Technological Society, A Work That Analyzed The Phenomenon Of The Autonomous And Totally Manipulative Postindustrial World. Ellul Takes Issue With Those Who Idealistically Plan New Urban Environments For Man, As Though Man Alone Can Negate The Inherent Diabolism Of The City. For Ellul, The History Of The City From The Times Of Cain And Nimrod Through To Babylon And Jerusalem Reveals A Tendency To Destroy The Human Being For The Sake Of Human Works. Nevertheless, Continuing The Theme Of The Tension Between Two Realities That Characterizes All His Works, Ellul Sees God As Electing The City As Itself An Instrument Of Grace For The Believer.
