Letter and Spirit: From Written Text to Living Word in the Liturgy

Hahn extends the message of "The Lamb's Supper," offering far-reaching and profound insights into what the Bible teaches about living the spiritual life. Focusing on the Catholic Mass, he describes how God's Word is meant to focus on the life-giving power of the sacraments, and how the liturgy brings about the "actualization" of the saving truths of Scripture.
