"A tour de force"

Taking inspiration from Jonathan Edwards, Gerald McDermott traces the redeeming work of the Messiah in the Bible and in Church history up through the new heavens and new earth.

"This is a book with a bold agenda--to complete and extend an unfinished masterpiece by America's greatest theologian. In these pages Jonathan Edwards comes alive in a new way, and we see how the drama of redemption informs all that he wrote--his history, theology, and exegesis. At once scholarly and edifying, this is a tour de force!"
--Timothy George, Beeson Divinity School, Samford University

"McDermott is well known as a Jonathan Edwards scholar. Now he has stepped into the role of updating the great theologian's work by offering his own account of the history of redemption. But this is no mere rehash of Edwards. Instead, McDermott works to bring out the astounding beauty of redemption (a much-neglected category in Protestantism) for a new generation. A very encouraging volume."
--Carl R. Trueman, Grove City College

"Audacious, sweeping, magisterial, and highly distinctive--at a moment in history when understanding the global is essential, McDermott gives us both a deep history and a wide-ranging global view of God's restoration of the world that expands our minds and enriches our faith. Fascinating reading."
--Os Guinness, author of Magna Carta for Humanity

"McDermott's voice carefully unites the Reformed tradition with key Roman Catholic theologians to write an ecumenically compelling theology of God's redemption, from before creation to the end of time. He pays special attention to 'Israel' (both Jews who follow Jesus and those who do not) and to Israel's enduring role in salvation history. A genuine contribution to theology, ecclesiology, and Christian-Jewish relations."
--Gavin D'Costa, Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas, Rome

"McDermott proves once again that he is one of the most well-grounded yet exciting and thought-provoking Christian theologians of our day. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in Christianity, the New Testament, or contemporary theology. From now on, serious Christian theology should take this formidable book into account."
--Rabbi Eugene Korn, Center for Jewish-Christian Understanding and Cooperation, Jerusalem
