Incarnation and Israel: A Supralapsarian Account of Israel’s Chosenness

| Zusammenfassung: | In its first part, this essay maps various ways in which Christian theology has tried to make sense of the notion of Israel’s election: as simply an expression of Israel’s religious self-consciousness (Friedrich Schleiermacher, Naim Ateek), as serving a larger goal in the divine economy (N.T. Wright, missional hermeneutics), and as the result of a divine falling in love (Michael Wyschogrod, Jon D. Levenson, R.W.L. Moberly). Finding all these approaches theologically wanting, in its second part the article develops an alternative approach, embedded in a supralapsarian Christology. The third part of the essay refutes the idea that supralapsarian Christology leads to supersessionism (R. Kendall Soulen) and argues that rather the opposite is the case: on the account of Israel’s election offered here, the covenant with Israel cannot be superseded because it is rooted in the very being of the incarnate One himself. |
