Bøker av David M. Moffitt

"Compels us to rethink what we thought we knew about the New Testament"David Moffitt challenges reductive views of the atonement and offers new perspectives on the saving significance of the death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus in the New Testament."Rarely does a new body of scholarship come along that compels us to rethink what we thought we knew about the New Testament. Moffitt's work on the Letter to the Hebrews is exactly that sort of game-changing intervention."--Richard B. Hays, Duke University (emeritus)"Moffitt makes a compelling and urgent case for re-examining the saving significance of Jesus's resurrection and ascension (as well as his death) within the biblical understanding of atonement. This volume will be indispensable for the study of Hebrews, and it should be foundational for the development of atonement theology."--Loveday Alexander, University of Sheffield (emerita)"An eye-opening series of arguments, each one of which now needs to be pondered and integrated into our overall assessment of Hebrews and its contribution to early Christian thought as a whole."--N. T. Wright (from the foreword)"Moffitt has changed not only how I read Hebrews but how I conceive of my faith. I'm eager to put this volume into the hands of my students and parishioners."--Amy Peeler, Wheaton College"This collection of essays is not simply a rethinking but a Copernican Revolution in atonement theology, both because it concerns the movement of a celestial body (the risen and ascended Jesus Christ) and because it calls for a reversal of some traditional soteriological polarities."--Kevin J. Vanhoozer, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School"Rethinking the Atonement promises to be no less than field changing. It will no longer be possible to write on the atonement, let alone Christology, without engaging in detail with the exegetical arguments that Moffitt presents. I cannot recommend this remarkable volume highly enough!"--Alan J. Torrance, University of St. Andrews (emeritus)"A spectacular set of essays from one of the greatest living New Testament scholars--David Moffitt. This collection provides a convenient and affordable anthology of some of his most influential work."--Madison N. Pierce, Western Theological Seminary
