We just received the new Peter Kreeft book at the Catholic Information Center. I picked up a copy yesterday and started reading. I can’t put it down. The first chapter of the “Metaphysics of Christ” is wonderful. The imagery that Kreeft employs is spectacular. Here’s an excerpt:

He is the Fisherman, the Fisher-King, and we are the fish, not vice versa. This Fisherman cannot be caught life fish. He fits into no net and swallows no bait, not even the Devil’s temptations in the wilderness. There is no place in His mouth for a hook to hold, for His mouth is fire.

I heartily recommend it.
