Dominion and Dynasty
A Biblical Theology of the Hebrew Bible
by Stephen G. Dempster
- 1 Want to read
Christian theologians rarely study the Old Testament in its final Hebrew canonical form, even though this was very likely the Bible used by Jesus and the early church. However, once read as a whole, the larger structure of the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) provides a "wide-angle lens" through which its contents can be viewed. In this stimulating exposition, Stephen G. Dempster argues that, despite its undoubted literary diversity, the Hebrew Bible possesses a remarkable structural and conceptual unity. The various genres and books are placed within a comprehensive narrative framework which provides an overarching literary and historical context. The many texts contribute to this larger text, and find their meaning and significance within its story of "dominion and dynasty," which ranges from Adam to the Son of Man to David, and to a coming Davidic king. - Publisher.

First Sentence
"Biblical theology has often been regarded as a discipline that avoids the subjectivity of other theological disciplines, since its goal is to discover the Bible's own distinctive theology."
