(chapter 5), the extent to which Christ possessed faith and the beatific vision (chapter 6) and the suffering of the impassible Son (chapter 7). Throughout the whole volume, Duby’s conclusions are rarely surprising for those with some familiarity with the ‘classical’ tradition culminating in Aquinas and leading into the Reformed scholastics. What’s noteworthy is the process. Duby reads critics as sensitively as space allows in order to clarify and strengthen his thesis: the very Jesus presented in scripture is none other than the eternal Son, who is one in immutable simplicity with the Father and the Spirit and who took on human nature in all its finitude and capacity for growth, maturation, suffering and death. This book is no easy read, but it is worth the effort. Duby remains fully rooted in post-Reformation scholasticism, bringing the best of that tradition to the task of articulating the sui generis union of humanity and divinity in the person of the Son. This work has the potential to help increase the dialogue across disciplines, and I hope it also inspires others to mine their own traditions for conceptual riches for the work of articulating a vision of Christ rooted in scripture’s proclamation.
