Subject: David G. Peterson situates Romans within the grand redemptive story of the Bible: creation, sin, Abraham's call and covenant, Israel's reception of and failure to keep the law, and God's great promises of salvation. Peterson reads Romans as Paul's exposition and defense of the gospel with unique theological insights into the Trinity, righteousness and justification, Israel and the church, apostolic ministry, and true worship and holy living.
