The Western tradition has always cherished the family as an
essential foundation of a just and orderly society, and thus
accorded it special legal and religious protection. Christianity
embraced this teaching from the start, and many of the basics of
Western family law were shaped by the Christian theologies of
nature, sacrament, and covenant. This volume introduces readers to
the enduring and evolving Christian norms and teachings on
betrothals and weddings; marriage and divorce; women's and
children's rights; marital property and inheritance; and human
sexuality and intimate relationships. The chapters are
authoritatively written but accessible to college and graduate
students and scholars, as well as clergy and laity. While alert to
the hot button issues of sexual liberty today, the contributing
authors let the historical figures speak for themselves about what
Christianity has and can contribute to the protection and guidance
of our most intimate association.
