dc.description.abstract<p>This chapter asks what the death of Christ revealed about God and the way he relates to humanity. It also asks whether this death was an elaborate cosmic legal transaction, a demonstration of divine love, or a divine expression of divine solidarity with the human race. This chapter suggests that the account of a covenant ceremony in Gen. 15 offers insights into these questions.</p>
