The Tree of Life is an important motif in Scripture,
appearing first in the Garden of Eden and
reappearing in the New Jerusalem. A careful study
of the exegesis and theological application of the
Tree of Life provides important insights into the
hermeneutical presuppositions and process of a
theologian. Mr. Shelley has here compiled a
critical study of the two great bookends of Western
theology: Augustine and Karl Barth. By comparing
the treatment of the Tree of Life by these two great
theologians, Mr. Shelley has highlighted Augustine s
four senses of Scripture and his Creation-Fall-
Redemption-Consummation narrative structure,
contrasting this sharply to Barth s six motifs of
theology and his Fall-Creation-Redemption narrative
structure. The implications of these differing
approaches is explored in the doctrines of
anthropology, ecclesiology, soteriology, revelation,
and Creation.
