This book is the winner of the $7,500 Abingdon-Cokesbury award for
the book adjudged "to accomplish the greatest good for the
Christian faith and Christian living among all people." Its author
is professor of Hebrew and interpretation of the Old-Testament at
Union Theological Seminary, Richmond, Va. The book ?? the Bib??
concept of the Kingdom of God and its meaning for the church. He
finds this to be the unifying theme of the Bible and the motivating
force of the living ?? Professor Bright has addressed his book to
the general reader of the Bible in the hope that it will present to
him a unifying principle in his Bible study which will make the
Scriptures loss confusing and more understandable. However, ?? the
reader is already fairly familiar with the Scriptures he is not ??
to be led to such a study by this thorough but pretty pedestria??
development of the theme. Ministers of ??servative best will find
it helpful and some of the laity will appreciate it. It is not a
book that the public, even the church-going part of it, will get ??
(Kirkus Reviews)
'This is one of the most satisfactory books on biblical theology to
appear recently in America...It is a work of first-class
scholarship which could only have been written by one thoroughly
coversant with the modern debate about the Bible...A passionate
appeal to the Church to be the Church...A book which should be red
and pondered by all theologians and ministers.' --Theology Today
