The books of Ezra and Nehemiah have been neglected in Old Testament
scholarship, but as Dean Ulrich demonstrates in this valuable
study, new in the NSBT series, Ezra-Nehemiah as a literary unit is
part of the Christian Bible that tells God's grand story of saving
activity. Now and Not Yet explores how the narrative theology of
Ezra and Nehemiah shows us how to be a godly participant in God's
story, and how the moral imperatives of leadership are bound up in
the larger context of God's acts and promises: God's redeemed
community that is bigger than any individual person, and at the
heart of this is mission - participation in God's purpose for his
world. Seeing these books as the record of the beginning of a new
work of God among his people after the exile, Ulrich also
illuminates how the theology of Ezra and Nehemiah connects to the
larger biblical narrative and leads to the first coming of Jesus.
Insightful and accessible, Now and Not Yet is a brilliant addition
to the New Studies in Biblical Theology series. It is ideal for
students, pastors and anyone looking for studies on Ezra and
Nehemiah that dig deeply into their theology, particularly in
relation to biblical mission. Now and Not Yet will leave you with a
greater understanding of Ezra-Nehemiah as a literary unit, and how
its theology is still relevant for Christians today - the new work
it reveals enables God's people to be restored in their
relationship with God, through both hope in God's promises and
obedience to his instruction concerned with mission.
