Opis

Volume II is a follow-up to Dr. Meyer van Rensburg's best selling first volume under the same title. In the first volume images of Christ that appeared in the first ten chapters of Genesis were revealed to our view in order to show how God has been in control of the writing of the Scriptures from the very beginning. "He is as vividly painted in Genesis as what He is in the Gospels. He is the Alfa and the Omega and He stands as clearly at the beginning of our world in the Garden of Eden in Genesis as He stands at the end in Revelation. The whole Bible is the revelation of Jesus Christ (Rev.1:1): He has first place in it. The history that is in the Bible is His-story." In fact, the whole of Genesis depicts Christ. The first two chapters, which deal with the creation, show us Christ, the Creator, and after that the Gospel story is depicted by the characters in the different chapters, as each one shows us another aspect of the life of Christ, setting out clearly the steps of redemption. In this new volume our journey through Genesis continues as the author shows us more images of Christ, and thereby revealing how Jesus was already revealed in the first book of the Bible as the Baptiser with the Holy Spirit; God's Son; Our High Priest and King; The Living Word; the Heir of the World; and the Well of Living Water. Genesis is often called "the seed plot of the Bible" and here we can see why: one image of Christ after another emerges from the mists of antiquity as God's Spirit reveals them to us through Dr. Meyer's penmanship. Each image is well researched but the author connects with the reader in a conversational style that shows his love for God and His Word as aspects of the Word that have seldom been seen or discussed are revealed
