By engaging with contemporary theologies of deep incarnation and the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas, the author presents a compelling argument that the face of Christ can be found in the cruciform demand for justice that arises from the creaturely finitude and vulnerability that underpins ethics. At the heart of this vision lies the recognition that the religious role-functions that characterized Jesus' life—the revelation of God and the redemption of the world—are carried out throughout the physical world, transcending the limitations of humanity or any single heroic representative of the species. Instead, the human encounter with the divine Christ takes place in and as the face of any vulnerable thing, whether it be an animal, a plant, an element, or otherwise. This radical reimagining of incarnation necessitates a renewed focus on ecological and animal ethics, urging compassionate care for all vulnerable bodies to the extent possible. Scholars in the fields of Christian theology and the philosophy of religion, particularly those interested in ecotheology, religious naturalism, and environmental ethics, will find this work of immense interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 550g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032249414\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Matthew Eaton","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44130909094138,"sku":"9781032249414","price":131.76,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1679474273485_book.jpg?v=1679997358","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/incarnate-earth-deep-incarnation-and-the-face-of-christ-9781032249414","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
