Snyder Belousek offers a comprehensive and critical examination of penal substitution, the most widely accepted evangelical Protestant theory of atonement, and presents a biblically grounded, theologically orthodox alternative. Attending all of the relevant biblical texts and engaging with the full spectrum of scholarship, Belousek systematically develops a biblical theory of atonement that centers on restorative -- rather than retributive -- justice. He also shows how Christian thinking on atonement correlates with major global concerns such as economic justice, capital punishment, `the war on terror,` and ethnic and religious conflicts. Thorough and structured, this book demonstrates how a return to biblical cruciform can radically transform Christian mission, social justice, and peacemaking.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Darrin W.
