R Mackintosh, Historic Theories of Atonement, p. 284-5: 'Denney began to modify, to qualify his statements, to explain that his real meaning was different. [...] Denney had already repudiated "forensic " or "legal" or "juridical" views of Atonement. One must press the question, Is the death of Christ penal or is it not ? The posthumous volume answers, "In one sense" it is, but "not in another."'
