'In this book, Levering not only documents the contemporary re-emergence of Thomistic Christology. He also contributes to it significantly by underscoring the biblical and typological framework of St. Thomas' Christology. He does so while illustrating manifold connections between Aquinas' scriptural exegesis and that of many contemporary biblical interpreters, in a contribution that is both original and sorely needed, restoring unity to regions of theology that are often separated artificially. This is a bold work of theological faith and historical reason, contemporary biblical exegesis and classical scriptural theology, yet another illustration of the judicious insight and tangible charity of Matthew Levering as a central protagonist of theology in our era.' Thomas Joseph White, OP, Rector, Angelicum, Rome
'The very conception of this book a reading of Thomistic Christology through the lens of Thomas' use of biblical typologies is a brilliant and inspired breakthrough that promises to break down entrenched boundaries between systematic Christology, modern biblical exegesis, and Thomistic studies. The realization of this conception throughout this book brings this daring promise to a compelling and richly rewarding fulfillment. This is ressourcement theology at its finest, as deeply recuperative of the riches of the Christian tradition as it is creatively and impactfully responsive to the present moment.' Khaled Anatolios, John A. O'Brien Professor of Theology, University of Notre Dame
'… even if one is not a Thomist, one will find Levering's study of Jesus as the new eschatological Adam, Isaac, Moses, Joshua, and David interesting, perceptive, and comprehensive.' Thomas G. Weinandy, The Thomist
