Mission in the Old Testament by Walter C. Jr. Kaiser Book PDF Summary

Walter Kaiser questions the notion that the New Testament represents a deviation from God's supposed intention to save only the Israelites. He argues that--contrary to popular opinion--the older Testament does not reinforce an exclusive redemptive plan. Instead, it emphasizes a common human condition and God's original and continuing concern for all humanity.

This new edition adds two new chapters, freshens material throughout, expands the bibliography, and includes study questions.
