Product Description -
In To Will and ToDo, twentieth-century French thinker Jacques Ellul presented his landmarktheological contribution, yet the full text has never before been available inEnglish. Incorporating recent insights on Ellul, and benefitting from thediscovery of a lost manuscript, this new publication remedies this, combining afresh translation of Volume One with a first English translation of Volume Two. Together, the two volumes constitute the first part of Ellul's plannedfour-part treatment of Christian ethics. In Volume One, Ellulexamines the origin of the problem of Good and Evil, surveys the contemporarymorality of Western society, and provocatively sketches the paradox of animpossible and yet necessary Christian ethics. In Volume Two, he carries thisdiscussion forward, outlining the characteristics and conditions of Christianethics, and analysing the relationship between ethics, the legal texts of theBible, and dogmatic theology. He concludes by reimagining the theological useof the 'analogy of faith' for scriptural interpretation. Throughout, Ellulremains in dialogue with Karl Barth, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Paul Ricoeur andothers, helping to cement To Will and To Do as a major intervention intwentieth-century theological ethics.
