This detailed and scholarly study of the theology of the Old
Testament arranges its themes under classic headings: God, Man,
Salvation. In part one, 'God', Koehler discusses the existence,
nature, and designations of God, the scope of God's works, and
explains the Old Testament teaching on Divine Revelation. Part two,
'Man', outlines of Old Testament concepts of the origin of nature
and life of man, discussing the world of man, community, good and
evil, sin, Satan, and 'the cult'. Part three, 'Salvation', covers
law, disobedience, expiation, forgiveness, and salvation by
judgement and redemption. Old Testament Theology is divided into 57
sections of convenient length. The student is guided quickly to the
information he seeks through an analytical table of contents and
comprehensive indexes; notes clarify specific points, directing the
reader to other literature. In addition, the volume offers a
veritable Old Testament theological wordbook, explaining key Hebrew
terms of theological importance throughout the book. This book
stands among the most significant works on the Old Testament.
The original appearance of this book was enthusiastically greeted
by Sir Godfrey Driver: 'The interest of this little book is out of
all proportion to its size; for Dr Kohler has compressed an immense
amount of information into a small space. He describes the life of
an ordinary Hebrew man from the physical, psychological and
intellectual points of view: his body in health and ill-health,
expectation of life, upbringing, manhood and health, his attitude
to the vicissitudes of life and the spiritual influences forming
its background and working on him.' The English translation first
published in 1956 has been out of print for some while, but the
passage of time has not invalidated the main emphasis of the work,
and this reissue is undertaken in the belief that the book still
provides an excellent entry into a world familiar from the long
tradition of reading the Old Testament in synagogue and church, but
in reality strange and different from contemporary life.
