McKelvey, Robert J.: Histories that Mansoul and Her Wars Anatomize

The Drama of Redemption in John Bunyan's 'Holy War'. McKelvey argues that John Bunyan wrote The Holy War as a warfare allegory symbolizing the salvation history of Scripture from a Calvinistic-covenantal perspective. In this cosmic drama of redemption, the "Histories That Mansoul, and her Wars Anatomize" include the individual-soteric-microcosmic level or ordo salutis unfolding analogous to the redemptive-historical-macrocosmic level or historia salutis. The eternal covenant of redemption provides the foundation for this history of salvation, which progresses from creation to the anticipation of consummation. 336 Seiten, gebunden (Reformed Historical Theology; Vol. 15/Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht 2011) leichte Lagerspuren, Rückenkante minimal bestoßen/minor shelfwear, slightly bumped spine
