How should we understand the Bible's many intricate themes across such a breadth of history and writings? This new edition of a successful textbook offers a unified theological vision of the Old and New Testaments. With up-to-date attention to biblical scholarship, the authors present the theological meaning of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation.

God shares his perfect love with his creatures in covenantal relationships. For such love to be realized, the people must love God fully with all their hearts and minds--become a holy people--and experience the indwelling presence of God--live in a holy land. The authors trace these twin themes through Abraham's promised descendants and land, Moses's law and tabernacle, David's kingship and temple, and ultimately the Son of God's incarnation and sending of his Holy Spirit.

Marked by focused presentations of central books of the Bible, this book shows how the themes of holy people and holy land hold together the biblical story. Attuned to creedal theology, it is accessible to the beginner and valuable to more advanced readers. The second edition has been updated throughout and includes a new foreword by Brant Pitre.

This book gives readers the tools to better understand Scripture by showing God's consistent purpose, as revealed by Scripture, to re-create his children so they might dwell with him in a communion of holiness and love through Jesus Christ. It is of special interest to Catholic readers while speaking to all Christians.
