Series edited by D. A. CarsonWhat does God intend for his broken creation? In this New Studies in Biblical Theology volume, Graham A. Cole seeks to answer this question by setting the atoning work of the cross in the broad framework of God's grand plan to restore the created order, and places the story of Jesus, his cross and empty tomb within it. Since we have become paradoxically the glory and garbage of the universe, our ...

Christian Reflections on the Song of Songs, Ruth, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes and Esther
New Studies in Biblical Theology
by Barry G. Webb
Series edited by D. A. CarsonThese five Old Testament books, traditionally known simply as "the Scrolls," are among the most neglected parts of the Christian Bible.

ebookA Mouth Full of Fire
The Word of God in the Words of Jeremiah
New Studies in Biblical Theology
by Andrew G. Shead
Series edited by D. A. Carson"I am putting my words as a fire in your mouth; these people are tinder and it will consume them." (Jeremiah 5:14) In the book of Jeremiah, not only is the vocabulary of "word" and "words" uniquely prevalent, but formulae marking divine speech also play an unprecedented role in giving the book's final form its narrative and theological shape. Indeed, "the word of the Lord" is arguably the main ...

A Biblical Theology of Priesthood
New Studies in Biblical Theology
by Andrew S. Malone
Series edited by D. A. CarsonThere are many investigations of the Old Testament priests and the New Testament’s appropriation of such imagery for Jesus Christ. There are also studies of Israel’s corporate priesthood and what this means for the priesthood of God’s new covenant people. However, such studies are less frequently connected with each other: key interrelations are missed, and key questions are not addressed. In this ...

ebookPossessed by God
A New Testament theology of sanctification and holiness
New Studies in Biblical Theology
by David G. Peterson
Series edited by D. A. CarsonIn this New Studies in Biblical Theology volume, David Peterson challenges the common assumption that the New Testament views sanctification as primarily a process. He argues that its emphasis falls upon sanctification as a definitive event, "God's way of taking possession of us in Christ, setting us apart to belong to him and to fulfill his purpose for us." Simply to identify sanctification ...
