"Douglas Knight has produced an ambitious, engaging, and creative account of the drama of redemption by changing the baseline terms in the discussion. This is constructive theology of a bold and fresh kind, taking seriously Israel, sacrifice, and an account of the problem of the human condition indebted to Irenaeus and Zizioulas. It is remarkable for its timely account of the church's destiny in the world of God's urgent, consummative work."--Christopher Seitz, University of St. Andrews"Knight combines a rigorous and scripturally disciplined dogmatic approach with fundamental analysis of metaphysical concepts. The result is an exciting and theologically motivated challenge to our modern assumptions about time and change, embodiment and identity."--R. R. Reno, Creighton University"No attentive reader of this book can fail to be impressed by its scope, boldness, and sheer theological energy. As he moves across the fields of historical and systematic theology, biblical studies, and philosophy, Knight demonstrates the resources within the Christian tradition for critical analysis and hopeful reconstruction of culture. This provocative book deserves to be read and debated very widely."--John Webster, University of Aberdeen"Douglas Knight is a free-flowing fountain of unexpected ideas and connections."--Robert W. Jenson, Center of Theological Inquiry, Princeton"In the tradition of Irenaeus's Against Heresies and in conversation with leading theologians and biblical scholars, this tour de force tells a grand narrative of all things coming together and coming to be in Israel, Jesus Christ, and the church. Douglas Knight displays an impressive imagination for pulling together a dizzying variety of voices.--Telford Work, Westmont College"Dense, erudite, and provocative, this work confirms the vitality of British, indeed European, doctrinal theology.... The reader opening to any page will be rewarded with startling and original theological insights."--Brian Brock, University of Aberdeen
