Overview

Adding her distinctive voice to lively conversations about the work and legacy of Jonathan Edwards, Larsen shows that Edwards thinks boldly about the freedom of the Father and the Son within their blessed fellowship in the Spirit. She identifies profound insights into the relationship between the divine being and the divine economy by focusing on Edwards’s understanding of the Son as he undertakes the work of ad extra glorification—the work by which God is externally blessed through God’s communication to creatures. In addition to careful analyses of the ‘covenantal’ and ‘evocative’ registers in which Edwards describes the fittingness of the Son’s redemptive mission, Larsen concludes by drawing resources from Edwards’s Christology that speak to key issues of freedom and aesthetics in Reformed thought today.

Reviews

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 Edwards’s thought, revealing deep tributaries often left unnoticed. Highly recommended! * Kyle Strobel, Biola University, USA. *
