Reviews
Adriani Milli Rodrigues's book Toward a Priestly Christology is a fascinating investigation of Christ's priesthood, with significant systematic implications for theology proper, Christology, and anthropology. Rodrigues carefully surveys and analyzes three prominent models of Christ's priesthood-sacramental, functional, and ontological-and sets forth a constructive alternative, which he labels the historical model. This hermeneutically sophisticated work makes an impressive contribution to the existing literature and warrants considerable attention in the scholarly community. -- John C. Peckham, Andrews University
This is an intelligent and perceptive study of a crucial theme in Christian dogmatics. Rodrigues shows us the pertinence of a priestly Christology that unfolds the present Christ in connection with his earthy life and sacrifice. The result is a dynamic understanding of priestly Christology that is bathed in Holy Scripture, rigorously historical, and wise in its constructive judgments. -- Christopher Holmes, University of Otago
Written with impressive care and precision, this book offers an excellent examination of the intercessory work of Christ. Seeking to untangle a range of challenging issues, most notably the relationship between time and eternity in the work of the ascended Christ, and demonstrating an ability to navigate large swathes of Christian theology, this book is worthy reading for anyone wanting to dig more deeply into this important topic. -- Marc Cortez, Professor of Theology, Wheaton College
