A Biblical Theology of Circumcision
New Studies in Biblical Theology
by Karl Deenick
Series edited by D. A. CarsonGiven the foundational importance of circumcision in the Old Testament and its prevalence in numerous debates in the New Testament, it is surprising that so little detailed work has been done on establishing a biblical theology of circumcision. This lack is even more surprising given that circumcision forms the background for some of the most hotly contested writings of the apostle Paul. The situation ...

100 Readings Through the Bible's Greatest Story
by Whitney T. Kuniholm
Jesus is the most influential person of human history. "Jesus never became a political, military or government leader; he never wanted to. He never owned a multinational corporation or acquired any wealth to speak of; he didn't need it. He never wrote a book, never staged a concert tour, never appeared on television and never had a radio talk show--or even his own blog. . . . What's so special ...

A Biblical Theology of Spiritual Adultery
New Studies in Biblical Theology
by Raymond C. Ortlund Jr.
Series edited by D. A. CarsonThe biblical theme of spiritual adultery stands in all its bluntness for a deeply offensive sin—the unfaithfulness of God's covenant people in departing from Yahweh, their husband, and going after false gods. Raymond C. Ortlund Jr. begins by showing how the Genesis vision of human marriage provides the logic and coherent network of meanings for the story of Israel's relationship with Yahweh. He ...
