Mikhael
Apostolic Preaching of the Cross
Above my pay grade. This is much more academic than I thought it'd be and assumes proficiency with Biblical Hebrew and Greek. I powered through, and I'm glad I did. Morris takes clear stances on the important of capital concepts like Justification and Substitution while also not using absence of evidence as evidence of absence (regarding certain perspectives on the mechanisms of salvation). Readers with a one-dimensional belief regarding atonement will be challenged to ditch the myopia and embrace something closer to Eastern holisticity, while those who chalk Christ's death up to an opaque mystery never to be explained will be challenged to plant a stake where things are elucidated with Western, academically rigorous interrogation of the documents.
