As a professor of over twenty years, I am pleased when I read a new book that would work well as a course textbook. The Promise-Plan of God is one of these rare finds. Kaiser has written many books, and some have found their way into my library. His scholarship is always sound, but in the case of Toward an Old Testament Theology, it was hard for some to fully appreciate and dig down into the text when some would bog down and become lost in the lengthy introduction. This work has readability and the visual layout of the publication has real eye appeal as well. I recommend this work for personal libraries for pastors, for academicians, and also as a text for teaching biblical theology.
What is the central theme of the Bible?Given the diversity of authorship, genre, and context of the Bible's various books, is it evenpossible to answer such a question? Or in trying to do so, is an external grid being unnaturallysuperimposed on the biblical text?These are difficult questions that the discipline of biblical theology has struggled to answer.In this thoroughly revised and expanded edition of his classic Toward an Old Testament Theology,Walter Kaiser offers a solution to these unresolved issues. He proposes that there is indeeda unifying center to the theology and message of the Bible that is indicated and affirmed byScripture itself. That center is the promise of God. It is one all-encompassing promise of lifethrough the Messiah that winds itself throughout salvation history in both the Old and NewTestaments, giving cohesiveness and unity to the various parts of Scripture.After laying out his proposal, Kaiser works chronologically through the books of both testaments,demonstrating how the promise is seen throughout, how the various sub-themesof each book relate to the promise, and how God's plan to fulfill the promise progressivelyunfolds. Here is a rich and illuminating biblical theology that will stir the emotion and theintellect. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
