Old Testament Law for the Life of the Church, The : Reading the Torah in the Light of Christ
Outline : The Old Testament Law has been a subject of much confusion, debate, and theological division. To sort through the numerous interpretations, we need to start with a solid knowledge of the Law itself. Richard Averbeck provides a comprehensive, accessible discussion of how the Law fits into the arc of the Bible and its relevance to the church today. Beginning with the way God intended the Law to work in its original context, Averbeck then explores the New Testament perspective on the Law. He identifies three biblical theological theses: the Law is good, the Law is weak, and the Law is a unified whole. Rejecting common partitions between categories of law, he makes the case that the whole Law applies to the Christian. The Old Testament Law for the Life of the Church invites readers to consider how all of Scripture is illuminating and useful for God's people.
