{"product_id":"adam-as-israel-9780227680193","title":"Adam as Israel","description":"\u003cb\u003eA discussion of how the links between the stories of Adam and of the people of Israel explain otherwise perplexing features of the Eden narrative.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePostell contends that the opening chapters of the Bible, when interpreted as a strategic literary introduction to the Torah and to the Tanakh, intentionally foreshadows Israel's failure to keep the Sinai Covenant and their consequent exile from the Promised Land, in order to point the reader to a future work of God. Postell highlights numerous intentional links between the story of Adam and the story of Israel and, in the process, explains numerous otherwise perplexing features of the Eden story.\u003cbr\u003ePostell employs a wealth of theologies to support his argument including those of Nicholas of Lyra, John Calvin, Wellhausen, Johannes Coccejus and Matthew Poole; successfully breathing new life into the wealth of exegeses.","brand":"Seth D.
