This volume is a good, perhaps ideal, introduction to Webster ... Allen has collected an illuminating group of essays that aptly present Webster’s profound and comprehensive theology, which, because of the very nature of his thought, is not easy to summarize. The dogmatically inclined reader will enjoy this relatively brief but deep tour of Webster’s teaching on the source, life, contexts, tasks, centers, and ends of the science of Christian dogmatics.

Reading Religion

This Reader charts John Webster’s theology from its earliest development, guiding the reader through selective essays that represent his corpus. It is an excellent introduction to the breadth of his writings, which teaches students how to engage with his particular mode of theological argument.

T&T Clark Reader in John Webster starts with a biographical, chronological and topical survey of Webster’s theological development. It notes his shifting conversation partners and his abiding theological principles. The editor places the essays in context with short introductions, as well as editorial footnotes clarifying key terms, historical or exegetical arguments or polemical emphases. This is an essential introduction to Webster’s work and his impact on classical and contemporary theology.
