Bruce Lindley McCormack is Charles Hodge Professor of Systematic Theology at the Princeton Theological Seminary.
This book provides the first thoroughly reformed version of kenotic Christology.
I. A Critical History of Kenotic Christologies and their Antecedents: An Overview: 1. Chalcedon and its legacy; 2. Self-emptying: as either depotentiation or divestment: the failure of nineteenth centure Kenoticism to repair Chalcedon; 3. Divine Kenosis as proper to the Eternal Son: Barth, Bulgakov and von Balthasar; 4. The Post-Barthian temptation: collapse of the Eternal Son into Jesus and surrender of an immanent trinity in protology; II. Returning to Holy Scripture: 5. The self-humiliating God in Paul's theology (and in Hebrews); 6. The Christological subject in the synoptics and in John; III. Repairing Chalcedon: 7. Towards a reformed version of Kenotic Christology; 8. Looking forward.
