This theological work explores the idea of 'preparation' as a key element in the Christian understanding of the Incarnation. Coleridge argues that God's plan for the salvation of humanity was set in motion long before the birth of Christ, and that the prophesies and foreshadowings of the Old Testament were a crucial part of this plan. This book is an insightful and thought-provoking contribution to the study of Christian theology and the history of doctrine.
