"This is thematic biblical theology at its best. Dr. Alexander has done us all a great service in providing this succinct, inspirational, and compelling examination of some of the great themes of the Bible. In doing so he gathers up many different threads in the biblical story and shows with skill their interrelatedness, their fulfillment in Christ, and their consummation in the New Jerusalem. Rich pickings in a short space!” Graeme Goldsworthy.
