Concerned by the ever-widening chasm between Paul and Reformation
theology, Forensic Apocalyptic Theology is a thorough and
innovative examination of the mature work of Karl Barth in
relationship to the question of Paul and the Protestant doctrine of
justification. Shannon Nicole Smythe argues that the basis of
Barth's revised doctrine of justification is located in his mature
Christ-ology, which is both deeply apocalyptic and thoroughly
forensic. Closely analysing Barth's exegetical work, Smythe
discovers in Barth what she terms a "forensic-apocalyptic"
approach, which allows him to formulate a doctrine of justification
with stronger ties not only to the Reformation doctrine but also to
Pauline apocalyptic. The result is that Barth's doctrine of
justification is not susceptible to the same criticisms commonly
brought against a judicial (forensic) reading, while his
soteriology becomes more consistently forensic than that of the
Reformation and points toward a different approach to the
relationship between justification in Paul and the Protestant
doctrine.
