This book critically interacts with the recent "New Covenant Theology" movement on the main themes of the Covenant of Works and the Rest of God, the Sabbath for God's people. It begins with an introduction to hermeneutics, a necessary aspect for understanding these theological themes; continues with a special treatise on the definition and justification of the Covenant of Works with Adam and its implications; and concludes with the doctrine of the Christian Sabbath, its foundation, and implications for the New Covenant church. A book that is irenic in its polemic against those who question both doctrines, yet precise in its biblical and theological contributions. An excellent book for understanding how the first chapters of the Bible are fundamental for a correct understanding of sound theology.
