How can Christians contribute to the debates about climate change and global warming? What ethical criteria do they bring to the conversation? How does the Bible figure in their deliberation? Carol Robb brings together the several dimensions of this one overarching issue of our lifetimes: hers is an ecological ethics in theological perspective, and it integrates economic theory, environmental policy, and most distinctively New Testament studies. Alongside deliberation on scenarios for the future in light of climate change and assessing criteria for ethical policy in this area, she reflects on implications of the New Testament worldview for ethics now. Relating Jesus' life, ministry, and teachings to the resurrection, then probing how Paul and other early followers of Jesus related to the empire, Robb provides a surprisingly fruitful fund of ideas for Christian responsibility in this area.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    Fortress Press have published a scholarly and unique book that seeks to earth ecological justice in the soil of a sustainably biblical vision. Carol Robb weaves together so many of the most difficult themes possible, ranging from ecology, economics, the New Testament and our environment in this rare and accessible title. After reading I felt significantly helped to move from naiveté to understanding and beyond in this critical cultural matter……. As the subtitle paints, this is biblical ethics and it’s intersection with climate change as the focus with academic rigour clear throughout ranging from Torah to policy change! This attractively delivered book offers content and challenge in abundance as well as longer footnotes than many books! Truly important and insightful for our times.
