In these days when cremation is so common, few realise that in Christian-in uenced societies it originated only in the nineteenth century and that for many years the choice of burial or cremation was one primarily made on the grounds of the faith of the deceased and the relatives. is book does not try to replay the debates of the past, but instead it takes a careful and balanced look at the biblical data and encourages thoughtful, prayerful planning. Helpful appendices contain suggested hymns and Scriptures for funeral services.
