all that the Bible teaches about who our Savior is and what he has accomplished, with the conviction that a careful examination of this teaching will lead us to adoration and worship. Peterson explains the saving work of Christ, both his deeds and the biblical pictures illustrating them, and thereby points to the magnitude of what Jesus did to save sinners. Offered here is a substantive, significant, and enduring treatise on a key Christian doctrine—the work of Christ.
“Peterson conducts a full-orbed tour of christology, particularly highlighting the often neglected role of Christ’s resurrection in our salvation. He writes with a pastor’s heart, as is evident in the biblical fidelity and remarkable clarity that marks this work.” Thomas R. Schreiner, James Buchanan Harrison Professor of New Testament

“Systematic theology at its very best. This is the book to which, after Scripture itself, I would first turn to explore any question about Jesus’s incarnation, atonement, or resurrection.” John M. Frame, Professor of Systematic Theology and Philosophy, Reformed
