{"product_id":"9781565482890","title":"Homilies on the First Epistle of John","description":"Saint Augustines ten homilies on the First Epistle of John are among his greatest and most influential works. John and Augustine both develop the same central theme love -- and in these homilies Augustine uses Johns epistle as a point of departure for exploring the meaning and implications of love with his customary profundity, passion and analytic rigor. As with John, a context of dissension and conflict within the Christian community (the Donatist breakaway from Catholic unity), gives his preaching a tone of urgency and poignancy. Anyone who reads these homilies, universally viewed as classics, cannot fail to be moved and challenged both intellectually and emotionally.","brand":"New City Press NY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47040799408368,"sku":"9781565482890","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781565482890_p0.jpg?v=1763789575","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781565482890","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
