Now Choose Life: Theology and Ethics in Deuteronomy (New Studies in Biblical Theology)

The newest title in a series that I. Howard Marshall calls "fresh and authoritative," this book recovers Deuteronomy's message of life for contemporary believers. Though written thousands of years ago, Deuteronomy is unmatched in its relevance for the affluent Western church of today. In this new study Gary Millar explores Deuteronomy's ethical teaching in the light of its most significant theological themes: covenant, journey, law, and the nations. His perceptive analysis reveals the power with which Deuteronomy calls God's covenant people, from ancient Israelites to modern-day Christians, to hear and do the will of God. Scholarly yet eminently accessible, this book brings to life the profound wisdom of Deuteronomy for pastors, students, and general readers.
