    Mission, Salvation and Spirituality in the Book of Jonah

    New Studies in Biblical Theology

    by Daniel C. Timmer
    Series edited by D. A. Carson

    The book of Jonah is arguably just as jarring for us as it was for the ancients. Ninevah's repentance, Jonah's estrangement from God and the book's bracing moral conclusion all pose unsettling questions for today's readers. For biblical theologians, Jonah also raises tough questions regarding mission and religious conversion. Here, Daniel Timmer embarks on a new reading of Jonah in order to secure ...

    Psalm 110 in Biblical Theology

    New Studies in Biblical Theology

    by Matthew H. Emadi
    Series edited by D. A. Carson

    By considering David's biblical warrant for bringing together priesthood and kingship in a single figure, Matthew Emadi shows how we are able to uncover the theological foundation on ...
