An erudite and in depth analysis of the concept of deification. It examines not only the contribution of patristic writers to the development of the doctrine but also its antecedents in Graeco- Roman and Jewish cultures. The pivotal role of St. Maximus the Confessor in elaborating and popularising deification as God's gift of Himself to us is clearly set out. The study comes completely up to date with a discussion of how the Byzantine understanding of deification impacts upon the contemporary debate around the nature of the human person.

It helps us to understand how this prayer is key to our manner of life in Christ.

A parallel Greek/English text of this important early Christian writing is provided together with an introduction. Whilst focusing on the Church's understanding of Christ it demonstrates that dogma and exegesis are intertwined in Patristic theological thought. Patristic dogma is in turn shown to be rooted in the biblical witness which is handled in a way quite distinct from many contemporary biblical scholars.
