other texts at work in each passage, encouraging the reader to hear it
within the Bible's grand story.

includes contemporary stories and illustrations to aid preachers,
teachers, and students.
--Exodus--

greatest act of redemption until the cross and resurrection of Christ.
Its concluding picture of God in all his blessing and glory dwelling in
the midst of his people will spark the faith and vision of the
concluding picture of the whole Bible.
Edited by Scot McKnight and Tremper Longman III, and written by a number
