E-raamat: Glory of the Blessed Son: An Approach to the Christology of Jonathan Edwards

Overshadowed by his trinitarian thought, philosophical musings, and psychological vision, Christology has been neglected in the secondary literature on Jonathan Edwards. Larsen seeks to remedy that neglect through a focus on the covenantal and evocative registers of Edwardss thought, revealing deep tributaries often left unnoticed. Highly recommended! * Kyle Strobel, Biola University, USA. * Jonathan Edwardss Christology has long been a puzzle to his interpreters. Partly this is because he does not develop a systematic account of the person and work of Christ. However, it is also because what he does say is piecemeal and sometimes rather unexpected. In this book, Larsen attempts an analytic reconstruction of his account, focusing on the way in which it intersects with his doctrine of divine glorificationa central motif in much of his work. Alive to the ways in which Edwards is indebted to the Reformed tradition, as well as the ways in which he strikes out on his own, this is an important study that all those interested in Edwards's theology will want to study with care. * Oliver Crisp, University of St Andrews, UK *
