| General note | 504 Includes bibliographical references (pages 191-209) and <br/> indexes. <br/>505 0 Introduction -- Atonement as purification -- Atonement as <br/> compensation or reciprocity -- Attachment, cruelty, and <br/> coping -- Rescue and disgust in Paul -- Answers to <br/> Atonement -- Fear and loathing in the Epistle to the <br/> Hebrews -- Atonement played out -- Conclusion. <br/>520 "Beneath the commonplace affirmation that Jesus 'paid for <br/> our sins' lie depths of implication: Did God demand a <br/> blood sacrifice to assuage divine anger? Is sacrifice <br/> (consciously or unconsciously) intended to induce the <br/> deity to show favor? What underlies the various metaphors <br/> for atonement used in the Bible? Here, Stephen Finlan <br/> surveys psychological theories that help us to understand <br/> beliefs about sacrifice and atonement and what they may <br/> reveal about patterns of injury, guilt, shame, and <br/> appeasement. Early chapters examine the language in both <br/> testaments of purity and the 'scapegoat,' and of payment, <br/> obligation, reciprocity, and redemption. Later chapters <br/> review theories of the origins of atonement thinking in <br/> fear and traumatic childhood experience, in ambivalent or <br/> avoidant attachment to the parents, and in 'poisonous <br/> pedagogy.' The theories of Sandor Rado, Mary Ainsworth, <br/> Erik Erikson, and Alice Miller are examined, then Finlan <br/> draws conclusions about the moral responsibility of <br/> appropriating or rejecting atonement metaphors. His <br/> arguments bear careful consideration by all who live with <br/> these metaphors and their effects today."--publisher's <br/> description. <br/> |
