Coles In the Fullness of Time: The Roman Empire as Providential Context for the Incarnation at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The mystery of the Incarnation stands at the center of Christian faith, the moment in which the eternal Word entered history, assumed human nature, and dwelt among us. For the Catholic tradition, this event is not an isolated miracle dropped into the world without context, but the culmination of a divine pedagogy unfolding across centuries. God, who governs all things with wisdom and love, prepared the world for the coming of His Son in ways both supernatural and historical. The Incarnation occurred not merely at a chronological moment but, as St. Paul writes, "in the fullness of time," a phrase that invites contemplation of the providential conditions that made the Roman Empire the stage upon which the Redeemer appeared. This book seeks to explore that providential context, examining how the political, cultural, intellectual, and social realities of the Roman world formed a unique environment for the advent of Christ and the birth of the Church.
