The Bible and the Anointing of the Sick Healing in Christ Michael Patrick Barber A CATHOLIC BIBLICAL THEOLOGY OF THE SACRAMENTS Timothy C. Gray and John Sehorn, series editors
Michael Barber offers a biblical theology of the anointing of the sick rooted in the Old and New Testaments.
“Barber’s splendid treatment of the biblical foundations of the sacrament of the anointing of the sick demonstrates how this sacrament actualizes the believer’s participation in Christ’s royal, priestly, and prophetic identity. With scholarly rigor and spiritual sensitivity, Barber presents a deeply compelling proclamation of Christ as the true physician of our souls and bodies.” — Khaled Anatolios, University of Notre Dame “A much-needed, exhaustive study of the sacrament of anointing of the sick. Barber explores the ritual from every aspect, seamlessly integrating the wisdom of Church Fathers with contemporary scholarly insight.” —Sherri Brown, Creighton University
