Description

Italian Jesuit Pietro Bovati reminds us that each section of the Old Testament contains expressions that explain and supplement narrated events that bring a powerful message of freedom and liberation for today. His systematic study will facilitate insight of the sacred texts by examining both the stories themselves and particular phrases— such as those of the Patriarchs and of David. His methodology of combining both exegetical and thematic perspectives provides a valuable articulation, revealing a rich reinforcement of the importance of the theme of liberation as an integral part of the whole theology of the Old Testament.
