The Apostles' Creed 'He Descended Into Hell' Marcel Sarot

Starting with a biblical view, The Apostles' Creed 'He Descended into Hell' covers the history of theology by discussing the ideas of Augustine, the liturgy of the Early Church, the role of Christ's decent in Franciscan spirituality and in the theology of Thomas Aquinas. It also asks whether similar theological ideas are present in Judaism. In addition, it gauges the meaning of Christ's descent for today by reflecting on pastoral activities and on computer games. To conclude, a fundamental theological reflection systematises and summarises all the material present within the volume.
