In this book Dr Edmund Clowney traces the story-line of God’s grace as it unfolds through the Old Testament. Beginning with Adam and Eve he continues to the last of the prophets, showing how such key figures as Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Moses fit into the plot of the greatest story ever told. He also relates key episodes, like the offering up of Isaac at Moriah and the giving of the low Sinai, to their fulfilment in Jesus Christ.

Without ignoring the Old Testament as history or resorting fanciful interpretations, Dr Clowney help us to find Christ in the old Testament, sometimes in the unexpected places. Rich in spiritual insight and intellectually satisfying, this book will help you to read the Old Testament with new appreciation as it builds up to its climax in the coming of Christ.
