Thomas Schreiner, a respected scholar and trusted voice for many students and pastors, offers a substantial and accessible overview of the entire Bible.
The author traces the storyline of Scripture from a canonical perspective of biblical theology, examining the overarching message conveyed throughout. Schreiner highlights three interrelated and unified themes that stand out in the biblical narrative: God as Lord, human beings made in God's image, and the earth or the place where God's rule is exercised.
The goal of God's kingdom is to see the King in His beauty and be enraptured by His glory. This first volume analyzes the Pentateuch, the historical books, and wisdom literature.
