Description: The Theology of Jonathan Edwards by Gerald R. McDermott, Michael J. McClymond Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This book is the first survey of the religious thought of Americas theologian-Jonathan Edwards-that draws on all of his writings, now available in a 73-volume online Yale critical edition. In 48 chapters, McClymond and McDermott, two of the worlds leading Edwards scholars, treat topics in Edwardss thought that have rarely been analyzed in depth, and never in coordination with a close analysis of the rest of his theology. Publisher Description Winner of the 2013 Christianity Today Book Award for Theology/EthicsScholars and laypersons alike regard Jonathan Edwards (1703-58) as North Americas greatest theologian. The Theology of Jonathan Edwards is the most comprehensive survey of his theology yet produced and the first study to make full use of the recently-completed seventy-three-volume online edition of the Worksof Jonathan Edwards. The books forty-five chapters examine all major aspects of Edwardss thought and include in-depth discussions of the extensive secondary literature on Edwards as well as Edwardss own writings. Its opening chapters set out Edwardss historicaland personal theological contexts. The next thirty chapters connect Edwardss theological loci in the temporally-ordered way in which he conceptualized the theological enterprise-beginning with the triune God in eternity with his angels to the history of redemption as an expression of Gods inner reality ad extra, and then back to God in eschatological glory. The authors analyze such themes as aesthetics, metaphysics, typology, history of redemption, revival,and true virtue. They also take up such rarely-explored topics as Edwardss missiology, treatment of heaven and angels, sacramental thought, public theology, and views of non-Christian religions. Runningthroughout the volume are what the authors identify as five basic theological constituents: trinitarian communication, creaturely participation, necessitarian dispositionalism, divine priority, and harmonious constitutionalism. Later chapters trace his influence on and connections with later theologies and philosophies in America and Europe. The result is a multi-layered analysis that treats Edwards as a theologian for the twenty-first-century global Christian community, and a bridge betweenthe Christian West and East, Protestantism and Catholicism, conservatism and liberalism, and charismatic and non-charismatic churches.
