| book description |
How has humanity in general, and Christianity in particular, dealt with the question of the soul’s immortality? In this book, Jeremiah Mutie digs deep into the pages of history, revealing that the immortality of the human soul has been an ongoing issue for the entirety of humanity’s existence. Tracing the pre-Tatian Greek philosophical concepts of the soul, Mutie advances ongoing discussions on the fate of the human soul, turning specifically to Tatian’s (120-180) infamous “battle†with the Greeks. He contends that, compared to the Platonic and Middle Platonic Greek views, Tatian’s view comes closest to biblical conceptions of the human soul. Across six chapters, Mutie critiques historical claims of Tatian’s heresy, arguing that Tatian’s work not only echoes biblical writings, but creates rich fodder for discussions of the immortality of the human soul.
