Barth's doctrine of reconciliation is exposited in a characteristic Barthian triad of confession: Jesus Christ is very God, very Man, and God-Man. This second part-volume treats the second theme in this three-fold confession by examining Jesus Christ as very man who is exalted and reconciled. While this volume takes up the kingly work of Christ, the previous part-volume focused on the high-priestly work of Christ and the following part-volume looks to the prophetic work of Christ. The discussion in this volume includes an examination of Chalcedonian Christology, treatment of the historical figure of Jesus in the Gospels, and a detailed exposition of the Holy Spirit's relation to the Christian community.
