Unveil the Logos across ancient voices and sacred texts. This scholarly edition gathers Philo’s insights on the Word of God, pairing his ideas with scriptures and related writings to illuminate how early thinkers understood divine presence, creation, and salvation. The collection invites careful comparison across traditions, revealing how late antique thought intersected with Jewish, Christian, and Chinese reflections on mystery and meaning.
Philo’s Logos is presented not as a single doctrine but as a framework that links divine revelation with human understanding. The pages mix philosophy and scripture, offering historical context and direct extracts that show how these ideas traveled and transformed. This edition emphasizes the development of key themes while remaining faithful to original sources, helping readers trace a long conversation about God, truth, and the path to holiness.

- Clear introductions and selections that connect philosophical concepts with biblical passages
- Explanations of terms and ideas used by Philo and their later Christian reception
- Comparisons that illuminate how different traditions approached creation, revelation, and mediation
- Notes that help situate the material in its historical and religious setting

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the history of Christ's divinity from the early days of the church through the thinkers and events that followed, scrutinizing how early adherents and detractors alike conceptualized his nature. The author argues that many early Christian thinkers, such as Nicolaus, viewed Christ as divine but not human, a view which gained traction in Gnosticism and other heretical movements of the time. Through a survey of extant texts and analysis of key historical figures including Philo Judaeus, the author demonstrates how early interpretations of Christ's nature, both within and outside the church, shaped our present-day understanding of Christian doctrine. This book is an invaluable resource for theologians and anyone interested in the historical evolution of Christian theology.
