Leading theologian Hans Boersma discusses numerous sermons and commentaries of the church fathers to show how they regarded Christ as the treasure hidden in the field of the Old Testament and explains that the church today can and should retrieve the sacramental reading of the early church. Combining detailed scholarly insight with clear, compelling prose, this book makes a unique contribution to contemporary interest in theological interpretation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHans Boersma\u003c\/b\u003e (PhD, University of Utrecht), a highly regarded theologian and an experienced preacher, is St. Benedict Servants of Christ Chair in Ascetical Theology at Nashotah House in Wisconsin.
