A top Old Testament theologian known for his accessible and
provocative writing probes what is necessary to understand and
appropriate the Hebrew Bible as a fundamental resource for
Christian theology and life today. This volume offers a creative
example of theological interpretation, modeling a way of doing Old
Testament theology that takes seriously both the nature of the
biblical text as ancient text and also the questions and
difficulties that arise as believers read this text in a
contemporary context. Walter Moberly offers an in-depth study of
key Old Testament passages, highlighting enduring existential
issues in the Hebrew Bible and discussing Jewish readings alongside
Christian readings. The volume is representative of the content of
Israel's Scripture rather than comprehensive, yet it discusses most
of the major topics of Old Testament theology. Moberly demonstrates
a Christian approach to reading and appropriating the Old Testament
that holds together the priorities of both scholarship and faith.
