Peter Adam is Principal of Ridley College, Melbourne, and this book could well be described as his third book on the Bible, after Speaking God’s Words and Hearing God’s Words.
This book expounds Adam’s convictions about the Bible by taking one summary phrase, ‘Receiving God’s words written for his people by his Spirit about his Son’, unpacking this large phrase one smaller phrase at a time. In doing so, he deals in some detail with an impressive number of Scriptures (Exodus 19-25, Isaiah 55, Ezra 7, Nehemiah 8, Psalm 1, Matthew 22, Mark 7, 1 Corinthians 10, Romans 15, for example, in just two sections).
