The Christian doctrine of justification continues to be of major importance in modern ecumenical discussions. In fact, this book became the leading reference work on the subject after its initial publication in 1986. This third edition thoroughly updates previous editions by adding new material and responding to the latest developments in scholarly literature. The volume's many acclaimed features include a detailed assessment of the semantic background of the concept in the ancient Near East, a thorough examination of the doctrine of the medieval period, and especially careful analysis of its development during the critical years of the sixteenth century.

The doctrine of justification is of major importance to Christian theologians and played a central role in the Reformation. This book is the only major study of the development of this doctrine. Providing a complete update of the successful earlier editions it will be an essential resource for all concerned with the development of Christian doctrine, the history of the Reformation debates on the identity of Christianity, and modern discussions between Protestants and Roman Catholics over the nature of salvation.
Alister E. McGrath is Professor of Historical Theology at the University of Oxford. His many publications include Christian Theology: An Introduction, 3rd Edition (2001).
