The third edition of Martens's well known study of Old Testament theology which has become a standard textbook at evangelical seminaries and bible colleges. Exodus 5:22-6:8 reveals God's design for building his kingdom, a design with four components: 1) Deliverance, 2) Community, 3) Knowledge of God, 4) The Abundant Life. From these components, Martens constructs a grid through which the entire message of the Old Testament can be read. God's Design presents an overview of the Old Testament all Bible students will find fascinating.
