Know about the book -
The Suffering of the Impassible God is written by Paul L. Gavrilyuk and published by Oxford University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0191533548 (ISBN 10) and 9780191533549 (ISBN 13).
The Suffering of the Impassible God provides a major reconsideration of the issue of divine suffering and divine emotions in the early Church Fathers. Patristic writers are commonly criticized for falling prey to Hellenistic philosophy and uncritically accepting the claim that God cannot suffer or feel emotions. Gavrilyuk shows that this view represents a misreading of evidence. In contrast, he construes the development of patristic thought as a series of dialectical turning points taken to safeguard the paradox of God's voluntary and salvific suffering in the Incarnation.
