    Theology and Mission in Ezra–Nehemiah

    New Studies in Biblical Theology

    by Dean R Ulrich
    Series edited by D. A. Carson

    For various reasons, the books of Ezra and Nehemiah have suffered comparative neglect in Old Testament scholarship. However, as Dean Ulrich demonstrates, Ezra–Nehemiah as a literary unit is part of the Christian Bible that tells God's grand story of saving activity. It focuses not so much on how to be an effective leader but on how to be a godly participant in God's story. God may ...

    Theology and Ethics in Deuteronomy

    New Studies in Biblical Theology

    by Gary Millar
    Series edited by D. A. Carson

    Though written thousands of years ago, the book of Deuteronomy is unmatched in its relevance for the affluent Western church of today.

The cultural changes now taking place in our own social setting make the parallel between Israel and the church—and what Deuteronomy has to say—both pertinent ...
