The kingdom of God and the atonement are two of the most
important themes in all of Scripture. Tragically, theologians have
often either set the two at odds or focused on one to the complete
neglect of the other.
In The Crucified King, Jeremy Treat demonstrates that Scripture
presents a mutually enriching relationship between the kingdom and
atonement that draws significantly from the story of Israel and
culminates in the crucifixion of Christ the king. As Israel s
messiah, he holds together the kingdom and the cross by bringing
God s reign on earth through his atoning death. The kingdom is the
ultimate goal of the cross, and the cross is the means by which the
kingdom comes. Jesus death is not the failure of his messianic
ministry, nor simply the prelude to his royal glory, but is the
apex of his kingdom mission. The cross is the throne from which he
rules and establishes his kingdom.
Using a holistic approach that brings together the insights of
biblical and systematic theology, this book demonstrates not only
that the kingdom and the cross are inseparable, but how they are
integrated in Scripture and theology."
