Who Is God?: Key Moments of Biblical Revelation Hardcover -
by Richard Bauckham; H. Daniel Zacharias (Editor)
From the rear cover
"A short, powerful book on a huge, vital topic"
"Richard Bauckham here distills his massive biblical scholarship into an exciting and easily accessible study of nothing less than the character of God. This is a short, powerful book on a huge, vital topic."
--N. T. Wright, research professor of New Testament and early Christianity, University of St. Andrews; senior research fellow, Wycliffe Hall, Oxford
"Bauckham writes as a scholar of deep and learned mind; he writes as someone who can talk about God in a way that is as easy to understand as it could possibly be. And he talks about the God of the Old Testament and the God of the New Testament in a way that shows how this is one God, concretely and consistently portrayed in both testaments."
--John Goldingay, David Allan Hubbard Professor Emeritus of Old Testament, Fuller Theological Seminary
"In this brilliant and readable little tome, Bauckham asks and answers the perennial question: Who is God? In doing so, he models how to do deeply revelatory biblical theology. This is a book to savor: its clear prose and profound biblical scope lead the reader to encounter the God of the Bible afresh."
--Mariam Kovalishyn, assistant professor of New Testament studies, Regent College
"This is a fantastic little book for anyone who wants to know God. With his customary lucidity and accessibility, careful treatment of evidence, and presentation of convincing arguments, Bauckham shows us that knowing God depends on God's self-revelation and his initiative to be with humanity as the God of immediacy, intimacy, and active presence. By interpreting the stories of Jacob's dream and Moses's burning bush experience and discussing three key moments of divine revelation in Jesus's baptism, transfiguration, and crucifixion, Bauckham beautifully explains how God seeks to be 'God-with-us' through Jesus and his Spirit. Bauckham illustrates these stories with ancient art from Ethiopia, where Christianity has existed for almost 1,700 years. In so doing, Bauckham emphasizes the universality of God's revelation and his dynamic and personal presence through Jesus Christ. This book--whose significance goes well beyond its size--will be appreciated by anyone who wants to know God better."
--Desta Heliso, lecturer in New Testament and Jewish literature of the Second Temple Period, Ethiopian Graduate School of Theology
This book is based on the Frumentius Lectures for 2015 at the Ethiopian Graduate School of Theology in Addis Ababa and on the Hayward Lectures for 2018 at Acadia Divinity College, Nova Scotia.
