Lectures in Old Testament Theology John N. Oswalt 第1 版

The Old Testament shows how God first was revealed to humankind. Though a complex and often puzzling story, God's choosing of Abram and his subsequent dealings with Abram's family gives us essential insight into his dealings with us.

Dr. Kinlaw believes that the Old Testament depicts a just God who is nonetheless loving and merciful. Rather than an implacable judge, God more often appears in the Old Testament as a compassionate, self-sacrificing Father. This has profound implications for God's relationship with us today.

These lectures were originally presented at Asbury Theological Seminary in 1993, and now form a useful introduction to the theology of the Old Testament. They provide a unique framework for understanding God s redemptive purpose in today s world.
