There are many books about theological exegesis; there are far fewer books of theological exegesis. This volume on the historical books is the second in a six-volume work of theological exegesis which will span select passages from the whole of the Christian Bible. The aim is to read Scripture according to its theological shape as a witness to the living claim of God upon church and world made known in Jesus Christ. The book, and the series, is intended for teachers, pastors, students, and readers attentive to the theological and spiritual dimensions of the biblical witness in all its brilliance and mystery.
