In The Trinitarian Testimony of the Spirit, Kyle R. Hughes offers a new approach to the development of early Christian pneumatology by focusing on how Justin, Irenaeus, and Tertullian linked the Holy Spirit with testimony to the deity and lordship of the Father and the Son. Drawing extensively on recent studies of prosopological exegesis and divine testimony in the ancient world, Hughes demonstrates how these three pre-Nicene Christian writers utilized Scripture and the conventions of ancient rhetoric and exegesis to formulate a highly innovative approach to the Holy Spirit that would contribute to the identification of the Spirit as the third person of the Trinity.

Hughes makes valuable contributions to the history of trinitarian exegesis, which he summarises conveniently in his conclusions, to support recent efforts that move the history of trinitarian theology beyond the mere analysis of threefold imagery and triple naming, Scripture scholars and historians of doctrine will benefit from this study.
