“Applicable,” not “Obeyable”!
For those interested in following my writing endeavors, there is a new article I’ve written for the Journal of the Evangelical Homiletics Society available here.
It is actually an essay-length book review of John H. Walton and J. Harvey Walton, The Lost World of the Torah: Law as Covenant and Wisdom in Ancient Context (Downers Grove: InterVarsity, 2019). This volume is part of InterVarsity’s Lost World series and the second tome co-authored by the Waltons, a father and son duo.
Apart from (and alongside) my review of their production, in this article there are also a couple of aspects of pericopal theology that I’ve recently been articulating afresh, that readers, especially if they are preachers, might find interesting.
Let me know what y’all think ….
