J. J. Johnson Leese discusses how the apostle Paul's writing on
Christ's relationship to creation, read alongside the
interpretations of Irenaeus of Lyon, provide a meaningful
contribution to contemporary debates on the interrelationship
between religion and nature. Leese draws upon the integration of
three related scholarly trends - the increased importance placed on
biblical creation themes, the emergence of ecotheology, and the
history of reception - while focusing on the Pauline corpus and
readings of Paul by Irenaeus, thus uncovering a robust creation and
ecotheological theology. Irenaeus' approach provides the
possibility for Paul to contribute to ecotheology, by way of a
theological vision where the whole of reality in relationship to
Christ and creation and by extension, to soteriology and
ecclesiology, are central components of Paul's theology.
