Produktbeschreibung

In Weak Elements, Weak Flesh, Ernest Clark reinvigorates an ancient interpretation overlooked since the fourth century. Clark argues that when Paul writes "we too were enslaved under the elements of the world," he is describing sin's enslavement of all people through the material elements that compose and compromise their flesh.
