Toward a Christology of Christ the High Priest (Tesi Gregoriana)

This study is a historical retrieval of particular authors and their discussions of Christ as priest, discussions that often emanated from age-old tensions. The Lord’s priesthood—an important but often neglected theme in Christology— may provide a prism for any current renewal in both the baptismal and ministerial dimensions of the priesthood of Jesus Christ. He is the original model, the one from whom we always learn what being priestly is all about.
