It offers both a bird’s-eye view―giving more attention than is often done to the theological significance of the arrangement of the biblical books within the canon―and an up-close-and-personal view analyzing the theological contribution of each book of the New Testament. The author describes the ethical significance and contribution to the storyline of Scripture of each book and each collection of books. This volume thus puts on clear display both the diversity and the unity of our single canonical volume.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDouglas J.

In this book, we encounter methodological considerations and history of the discipline, hermeneutics (implicitly), canonical placement and its implications, theological exposition leading to thematic highlights of each biblical book, the ethics of every book, and each book’s place in the Bible’s storyline. A lengthy and full conclusion ties everything together. The extensive scholarship of Köstenberger results in a wide-ranging synthesis drawing on a wealth of bibliography. The last chapter even offers a vision for the future of biblical theology. Here, then, is a compendium of recent generations of scholarship, with fresh insights for grappling with the whole counsel of Scripture in this and the coming generation.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRobert W.

It indeed is a challenge to encompass all the layers of Scripture’s richness. In that way, this volume makes a major contribution to the field in that it endeavors to show how all these factors build on each other into a cohesive whole. This work then is not only a resource to observe biblical theology in every book of the New Testament but also gives much food for thought as to how we engage in biblical theology.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbner Chou\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e,\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ePresident and John F.
