Michael investigates our misconceptions concerning the body and soul, exploring the Platonic and NeoPlatonic influences on Christian thought, which has produced dualistic and body-dismissing conceptions of human nature and the source of sin. Some of this relies on our misunderstanding of the Apostle Paul’s use of the word “flesh,” which Michael explores in detail. He considers also the immortality of the soul. In sum, he drives at a more biblical understanding of body and soul.
