    The God Who Makes Himself Known

    The Missionary Heart of the Book of Exodus

    New Studies in Biblical Theology

    by W. Ross Blackburn

    The Old Testament books of wisdom and poetry carry themselves differently from those of the Pentateuch, the histories or the prophets. The divine voice does not peal from Sinai, there are no narratives carried along by prophetic interpretation nor are oracles declaimed by a prophet. Here Scripture often ...
