Ronald Youngblood's concise guide to the central themes of the Old Testament has served students for thirty years.\ In The Heart of the Old Testament, Youngblood demonstrates the thematic unity of the Bible by tracing the development of nine key concepts through the Old Testament and into the New: monotheism, sovereignty, election, covenant, theocracy, law, sacrifice, faith, and redemption. These concepts constitute the very heart of the Old Testament.
Traces nine key theological strands through the Hebrew Scriptures and shows how they link to the New Testament. Highly accessible, profoundly insightful.
