It is often recognized that the title 'servant' is applied to key
figures throughout the Bible, culminating in Jesus Christ. Matthew
Harmon carefully traces this theme from Genesis to Revelation,
examining how earlier 'servants' point forwards to the ultimate
Servant. While this theme is significant in its own right
throughout redemptive history, it also plays a supporting role,
enhancing and enriching other themes, such as son, prophet and
king. Harmon shows how the title 'servant' not only gives us a
clearer understanding of Jesus Christ but also has profound
implications for our lives as Christians. When we grasp what it
means to be servants of Christ, our love for him and our obedience
to him deepen. Understanding that the ultimate Servant, Jesus
Christ, indwells his people, to empower them to serve others in
love, has the potential to transform how we interact with fellow
believers and the world around us.
