"Take and Eat"

A Biblical Theology

Beschreibung

There are many doorways that can be used to enter and engage with the storyline of the Bible. In this book, TK Dunn traces the theme of "take and eat" across the pages of Scripture to demonstrate that many of the critical events in redemptive history are marked by uses of food. From God's bountiful provision in Eden through the celebratory feast of the New Jerusalem, Dunn explores how God uses meals as a symbolic method of teaching his people about grace, mercy, justice, holiness, and redemption. This Biblical Theological feast is designed to provide a unique and captivating analysis of God's activity in his created realm by interacting with his people in a manner that they could both experience and understand. The contract of the Fallen Adam with the Final Adam sits at the heart of the gospel and it is therefore not surprising that the "take and eat" motif is present in the lives of both Adam and Jesus. Seeing Jesus' obedience as an inversion of Adam's failure, Dunn demonstrates how Christ is not only the fulfillment of the Old Testament's hopes and promises, but also the one who restores and renews all things by the unwinding of the Fall. By considering how God uses these moments to progressively reveal more about his work of salvation through Christ, Dunn provides a theological buffet that will entice the unbeliever to "taste and see that the Lord is good" and also satisfy the believer who is eagerly anticipating the day when Christ will sit and feast with his beloved church at the end of time.
