The Heartbeat of Old Testament Theology: Three Creedal Expressions (Acadia Studies in Bible and Theology)

A highly-respected scholar explores the theological heart of the Old Testament by examining three big ideas that communicate the Old Testament's redemptive theology.

This volume explores the theological heartbeat of the Old Testament by examining three big ideas that communicate the Old Testament's redemptive theology. 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.
