T&T Clark Handbook of Thomas F. Torrance Summary

T&T Clark Handbook of Thomas F. Torrance by Paul D. Molnar

This handbook explores Thomas F. Torrance's importance in modern theology, with each contribution bringing Torrance's deep and nuanced insights to a broad range of contemporary theological concerns. The contributors to this volume present cutting-edge Torrance scholarship for a new generation, which will enable readers to see the timely significance of Torrance for today. Comprising both contexts and dogmatics, these essays not only introduce key themes in Torrance's extensive published writings – including his work on the Trinity, ecumenism, incarnation, atonement, and eschatology - but also provide fresh interpretations fully conversant with theological problems facing the church in the world today. Designed as both a guide for students and a reference point for scholars, this handbook thoroughly explores the frameworks of key debates related to Torrance's theology, while also suggesting fresh interpretative strategies concerning his thought.

T&T Clark Handbook of Thomas F. Torrance Reviews

The scope and quality of this fine handbook tells of the importance and continued influence of the Scottish historian of doctrine, theologian, churchman, and ecumenist, Thomas F. Torrance. Those looking for an entrée and orientation to Torrance’s work, as well as those keen to deepen their appreciation of his theology and its legacy, will certainly benefit from the many fine contributions drawn together here. * Philip G. Ziegler, University of Aberdeen *
For many, Thomas F. Torrance's theology remains a vast, unexplored and intimidating continent. There are dense passages, steep cliffs, but also rewarding vistas, particularly on the relationship of theology and science and the humanity of Jesus Christ – all the more reason to be thankful for this new handbook and its guides. * Kevin J. Vanhoozer, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, USA *
There were various things my father didn’t like, including flimsy arguments and a refusal to engage with the primary texts. He had a particular dislike of sycophantic would-be disciples who utilised certain of his arguments to construct a scholasticism which he found unrecognisable. This collection of essays provides the informed but distanced engagement he would have welcomed. Watching my father, I used to find myself reminded of the paradoxes expounded by St Paul: simultaneously combative and humble, utterly confident of his vision yet always enquiring. I commend these essays and am most grateful to their editors. * Iain R. Torrance, Princeton Theological Seminary, USA *
This handbook is an extraordinary secondary resource for anyone interested in Thomas F. Torrance and his theology. Paul D. Molnar and Myk Habets have assembled a global team of scholars to explore the full depth and breadth of topics central to the work of Torrance, the most seminal and prolific theological voice in the English-speaking world of the late 20th century. No one interested in Thomas F. Torrance can avoid reading this handbook, which is destined to be on the shortlist of works crucial for understanding his theology. * El Colyer, University of Dubuque Theological Seminary, USA *
