About the Book

This Bampton Lecture series of 1958 provides an illuminating exposition on the Ascension, which as J.G. Davies asserts, has been a greatly neglected article of the creed. J.G. Davies thoroughly examines the Biblical material before following the history of the doctrine and its development from the period of the ante-Nicean Church, through the Carolingian Renaissance to the reforming monastic movements of the eleventh and twelfth centuries. The author also gives a systematic commentary on the Ascension doctrine as it may reasonably be held and taught today. This is a key theological work in the doctrine of the Ascension that deals with the origin and significance of the Apostles Creed.
