Beschreibung

From the perspectives of Levitical sacrifice and the conceptual movement in the incarnation of the Son away from and then back to the Father, Jesus's sacrifice cannot be reduced to his death. This book argues that the incarnate Son moves in the direction of Jewish sacrifice when he returns to his Father's heavenly presence.
