Description: Michael Barber offers a biblical approach to anointing of the sick, drawing from both the Old and New Testaments. He unpacks the riches of the Scriptures to explain what true healing in Christ involves, demonstrating how an exegetical approach to the sacrament can advance our understanding of it.

Topics include the biblical significance of oil; the relationship of physical healing and spiritual healing, including the forgiveness of sins; sin and death; Christ as the New Adam; the continuation of Jesus's ministry in the church; the power of sacral anointing; Christ's fulfillment of messianic hopes; and participation in Christ's royal, priestly, and prophetic mission.

The book is suitable for classroom use and parish ministry.
