Synopsis

In his important new study Dr H. D. McDonald examines the importance of Christ's atoning act for man's redemption.
McDonald's work stands in the tradition of Reformed biblical scholarship which is based around the work of Emil Brunner and James Denney and contains a restatement of Evangelical biblical theology and of critique of the tendencies of modern liberal theologians.
Compiling his argument by means of a detailed study of biblical thought surrounding the Christian doctrine of salvation and atonement, McDonald examines the various authors of the text of the Bible and locates the New Testament's background in Old Testament thought.

Review:

"More perhaps even than the phrase 'the cross' that of 'the blood' encapsulates all that the New Testament signifies by the Calvary event. Not only is the cost of redemption present in the word itself, but also its content." Extract from Chapter V, The Blood, New Testament Concept of Atonement."
