In this work, Dr. Martin examines the Law as presented in these books (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy), focusing on the historical, theological, and ethical aspects of the text. He provides insights into the laws given to the Israelites, their significance in the covenant relationship between God and His people, and how they shaped the life and worship of ancient Israel. Dr. Martin also emphasizes the role of the Law in the broader biblical narrative, pointing to its fulfillment in the New Testament, especially through the person and work of Jesus Christ. The book serves as both a theological guide and an academic survey for readers seeking to understand the foundational principles of the Hebrew Scriptures.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Alfred Martin</note> <subject> <topic>Law and gospel -- History of doctrines</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Law (Theology)</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Old Testament -- History of Biblical events</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Pentateuch -- Introductions</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">220.61</classification> <classification authority="ddc">S963-S43</classification> <identifier type="isbn">0529067331</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15912/law1.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15912/law1.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-1</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071532.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
