This book is the wonderful fruit of many years of close and expert reading the Scriptures. In it, Dr Goldsworthy reminds us, as he has done in earlier books, of the riches of the Bible and the value of careful study, especially in revealing the unity of God's word and the power of its narrative. For example, I was blessed and challenged by his exposition of the covenant theme, especially as he reminds us that 'the train of salvation history runs along the tracks of the covenant'. I warmly commend the book to those who desire to have a deeper understanding of God's revelation of himself in his word.
