Description for Oh, That You Would Rend the Heavens and Come Down!: The Eschatological Theology of Third Isaiah (Isaiah 56-66)
Paperback. A revelatory study of Isaiah 56-66, showing how the theology implicit in the text forms a coherent whole that expresses strong eschatological and covenantal themes.

The covenant concept (56:1-8) forms a framework for the eschatology ... Read more
