"This book is an instant classic that deserves a wide readership."

--from the forward by A. Andrew Das, distinguished chair, Professor of Religious Studies, Elmhurst College.

This volume by Dr. Thomas R. Schreiner on the interplay between Christianity and biblical law is an excellent addition to the 40 Questions & Answers series. Schreiner not only coherently answers the tough questions that flow from a discussion about the Old Testament Levitical Law, but also writes clearly and engagingly for the student. The pastor, student, and layperson can easily understand Schreiner's biblical theology of the Law.
