Karl Barth repeatedly spoke of the centrality and unparalleled
significance of the resurrection of Jesus Christ for his
theological understanding, yet a clear grasp of its nature and
scope in Barth continues to find little expression in scholarly
literature. This book seeks to draw out the theological substance
and systematic implications of Barth's thinking on this theme.
Barth's mature understanding of the resurrection concentrates upon
the transition from the objective achievement of reconciliation
culminating in the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ to its
subjective appropriation in the life of the believer, all within a
thoroughly christological context. The resurrection may be
described as the way of the crucified Lord to others, and is, for
Barth, the essential and efficient link between christology proper
and the extension of Christ's saving work to others.
