Description
Summary:This article considers the significance of the resurrection in the soteriology of Karl Barth. While Barth has rightly been associated with an understanding of the resurrection centred around the concepts of ‘declaration’ and ‘revelation’, this article explores an often overlooked secondary strand in Barth's theologia resurrectionis centred around the concepts of ‘redemption’ and ‘justice’. With a view of the ‘three-agent’ character of the soteriology developed in §59.2–3, it will be demonstrated that this second strand of Barth's theology of the resurrection can fund an account of salvation as a reality completed not in the crucifixion of Christ but in God's new, eschatological act of raising Christ from the dead.
