Book: The Structure of Biblical Authority

910698

I finished this book a number of weeks ago. I really thought it was well written and presented some stellar insights. I’ve never read anyone like Kline with the level of sophistication he brings on the topic of covenant. I’m not sure there is anyone better really. I keep the book on my desk to review my highlights from time-to-time. Many good things to think about.

On coventantal parallelism and administrations:

“The scene of the Sermon on the Mount, which epitomizes Jesus’ authoritative teaching role, recalls on mistakenly the figure of Moses at Mount Sinai.” (192)

“Even when stating the contrast between Moses and Jesus Christ in terms of law over against grace and truth, John draws attention to their common mediatorial role. It was “through” Moses and “through” Christ that the Old and New Covenant came.” (190)
