| Résumé : | “God and World in the Old Testament fulfills an urgent theological need in our time. Fretheim guides us through the wealth of biblical resources as he helps us rethink our understandings of the interrelationships of God, humans, and the world from the ground up. Fretheim weaves his broad and compelling vision of the Old Testament’s ‘relational theology of creation’ through engaging and well-researched studies of key creation texts throughout the Old Testament, beginning with Genesis and extending through the prophets, wisdom, and the psalms. This work represents the mature theological reflection of a biblical theologian who has spent ä lifetime thinking hard and long about fundamental questions concerning the relationships of God and the world and their contemporary implications, including current issues of science, ecology, prayer, human suffering, ethics, and the nature of God’s interaction with the world. I recommend this book with ardent enthusiasm!” - Dennis T. Olson |
