Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a crucial aspect of the Christian faith, exploring the true meaning of the Greek word "Metanoia." The author argues that the traditional English translation of "repentance" fails to capture the full depth and significance of the original word, which encompasses a transformative change of mind, heart, and life. By examining the etymological roots of "Metanoia," and contrasting it with the Latin "penitentia," the author reveals the intellectual and spiritual breadth of the concept as it is presented in the New Testament. The book's exploration of "Metanoia" is situated within a historical context of theological debate, and highlights the influence of Latin translations on interpretations of the Christian scriptures. The author skillfully analyzes how the dominant interpretation of "repentance" has shaped the understanding of Christian life and practice. Ultimately, this book offers a profound insight into the transformative power of "Metanoia," challenging readers to engage with the original Greek text and reexamine their own understandings of faith and conversion. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
