[Peter · Rating 4 out of 5]

A collection of essays by A. on the doctrine of Creation in the OT. There is a lot of great stuff here. A. has good insight into the creation faith of Israel and the New Creation trajectory. Good thoughts on providence as well. A. accepts critical theories, which limits his usefulness, though. Academic.
