This new series addresses key issues in the discipline of biblical theology. Each of the contributions to this series focuses on one or more of three areas: the nature and status of biblical writer or book, and the delineation of a biblical theme across all or part of the Bible. Scholarly yet uncluttered with untrasliterated Greek and Hebrew, these volumes avoid technical jargon, interact with the best of current literature and above all provide clear and creative insights that help thinking Christians better understand the Bible.
