These exciting studies on the first five books of the Bible cover a wide range of topics, challenging the reader to confront the issues of faithfulness, responsibility, and justice in an ever-changing world. Brueggemann sets the issues of praise and lament, grace and duty, truth and power in new frames of reference that call for a response. He demonstrates that the Christian reader of the Bible cannot blithely pass over the Pentateuch as simply pre-Christian and without relevance. His creative use of metaphor and imagination invite the reader to encounter freshly in these biblical texts God's call and the work of justice. 230.0210800631765993 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 230.021 Bru c E99029637 Non Fiction 230.021 Bru c The_covenanted_self.jpg 32787 2014-11-27 11:54:25 2025-08-29 15:35:57 machine generated
