A theological view of beauty plays no part, with rare exception, in any of the traditional loci of theology and doctrinal courses that are offered in Christian higher education within a broadly evangelical perspective. The reasons behind the aforementioned state of affairs in contemporary scholarship are manifold, but a prominent one clearly would be the lack of consensus that exists on the validity of beauty as a proper locus of theology, or if it is affirmed, to which locus it belongs. Another reason why beauty and aesthetics are treated in relative isolation from biblical and systematic theology is that theological scholarship on aesthetics is done overwhelmingly in the way of religious aesthetics or theology of the arts. The constructive argumentation of this dissertation will help serve as a corrective to this neglect. My thesis is that the Son's fittingness as incarnate Redeemer, and in the divine economy in general, serves to display the Son's glory in every stage of the theodrama. The properly dogmatic (i.e., Trinitarian) ground of the Son's fittingness is God's beauty, which, in conjunction with divine simplicity, entails that everything God does is, by definition, beautiful (i.e., God-glorifying). I trace this theological aesthetic across the principal phases of the theodrama (creation, redemption, and consummation) through the lens of Christology and the related theme of the imago Dei.
