Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
The Spirit of God examines the use of 1 and 2 Corinthians by two fourth-century Greek Christian authors, Athanasius and Basil of Caesarea, especially as it relates to the doctrine of the Holy Spirit.
The controversy over the nature and status of the Spirit during the latter half of the fourth century is detailed in order to place in context the examination of the way in which the theological concerns of Athanasius and Basil shaped their pneumatological interpretation of the Corinthian correspondence.
This examination will be of value to patristic scholars interested in the way that Scripture was employed in the fourth century to hammer out doctrine.
'Although Haykin does not work on unexplored grounds, his lucidly written book doubtlessly testifies to his mastery of the complex material. ...valuable and trustworthy study...'
J. Van Oort, Vigiliae Christianae, 1996.
'This is a useful piece of work. All the importance ancient discussions are taken up...this is a worthwile exercise in fieldwork, which students of patristic doctrine and exegesis should consult.'
L.R. Wickham, Journal of Theological Studies, 1996.
