Material Mystery analyzes three anthropomorphic figures from religious myths: the bodies of Adam and Christ and the resurrected or "glorious" body. Using Jewish and Christian Wisdom traditions, the book argues that these myths help us to understand the interaction, interdependence, and divine character of all matter.
