Title: Covenant of Redemption
Description: John V. Fesko explores the historical origins of the doctrine of the covenant of redemption (pactum salutis), the eternal intra-trinitarian covenant, which was a common staple within Early Modern Reformed theology. Furthermore, he surveys its development in the seventeenth- through nineteenth-centuries, examining key advocates of the doctrine. He also studies the contemporary reception of the doctrine in the twentieth century with a survey of the doctrine’s critics (e. g. Karl Barth) and its proponents.
