Is anyone familiar with Schilder's (1890-1952) trilogy on the sufferings and crucifixion of Christ? I ran across a set at a local library (the original Eerdman's 3-volume set from 1938-1940) and was going to check out the first volume, but hesitated.
It seems to me that I've heard that Schilder's trilogy is too "mystical" or "speculative" or "imaginative" or something along that line. I've also heard that, even within the Dutch tradition, his theology is a little "different", somehow.
Sorry I'm so vague about all this, but that's why I'm asking. So: are his books worth reading?
