About this ebook

This commentary by Henri de Lubac on Dei Verbum, the Second Vatican Council’s Constitution on Divine Revelation, is a treatise on revelation and faith which remains strikingly relevant today. In pages nourished by Scripture and the Fathers, pulsating with a profound love for Jesus Christ, and attentive to the uncertainties of our time, de Lubac tells us what constitutes the heart of Christianity and the axis of his own life: Revelation is inseparable from the gift God makes of himself to man, and faith is nothing other than the acceptance of this unimaginable gift, communion in the very mystery of God.
