Clement of Alexandria (150-215) lived and taught in the most lively
intellectual centre of his day. This book offers a comprehensive
account of how he joined the ideas of the New Testament to those of
Plato and other classical thinkers. Clement taught that God was
active from the beginning to the end of human history and that a
Christian life should move on from simple faith to knowledge and
love. He argued that a sequence of three elliptical relations
governed the universe: Father and Son, God and humanity, humans and
their neighbours. Faith as a fixed conviction which is also a
growing mustard seed was joined to Plato's unwavering search for
the best reason. The open heaven of prophecy became intelligible
through Plato's ascending dialectic. This book will be invaluable
in making this outstanding thinker of the early Church accessible
to the students of today.
