Author: Earl Banks
Publisher: Austin Macauley Publishers
ISBN: 1645364291
Category : Young Adult Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
In an easy-to-read style, Earl Banks has provided us with a very important book for people who have wondered, ‘what are the first five books of the Bible all about?’ Or, ‘what are the Psalms all about?’ Earl answers these questions beautifully. Most Christians spend their time reading the New Testament because that’s the Word of the Lord to the believer in Christ. But Earl shows that the book of the Law was the Word of the Lord to the Psalmist. The more we understand the Book of the Law, written by Moses, the more we can understand the Psalms. Earl shows how to read those books of Moses, and how to understand the Psalms. This is a must read for anyone who would like a deeper understanding of the Old Testament, and especially the book of Psalms.

The Heartbeat of Old Testament Theology
Author: Mark J. Boda
Publisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 9780801030895
Category : Religion

Book Description

Highly respected scholar Mark Boda shows how three creedal expressions--the narrative, character, and relational creeds--recur throughout the Old Testament and express its core redemptive theology, in turn revealing how the redemptive pulse of God expands to all of creation. He also traces these redemptive and creational pulses into the New Testament and shows their relevance for today's Christian community.
