Dominion and Dynasty: a Biblical Theology Of the Hebrew Bible

---

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- from David to the coming Davidic king.
