Deuteronomy is full of vibrant stories of God's people and a vital vision for walking God's way. Considered by some to be the theological center of the Old Testament, it is the book that Jesus quoted when asked about the heart of Israel's faith. Deuteronomy has also been used to justify violence and all manner of war. Old Testament scholar Gerald E. Gerbrandt invites readers to struggle with the difficult passages and to converse with the book's consistently hopeful themes of covenant, land, and leadership. Deuteronomy calls for the exclusive worship of the one God, with a reminder of what God has done for us. It presents a vision for a community of sisters and brothers who treat each other with justice and generosity. In this twenty-ninth volume in the Believers Church Bible Commentary series, Gerbrandt unfolds for readers the richness of this ancient book, which remains endlessly challenging and remarkably relevant for today.]]> | DEUTERONOMY by Gerald E Gerbrandt, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
