Description:
Do covenants or dispensations structure the biblical revelation? The historic conflict between covenant and dispensational theology has resulted in a neglect of biblical covenants in dispensationalism. As a corrective, this book offers a variant of dispensationalism designated covenantal dispensationalism. Analyzing both ancient Near Eastern and biblical covenants, this work clearly demonstrates that the character of each dispensation is the sum of the stipulations of the operative covenants. Therefore, this book concludes that covenants structure the biblical revelation and that resulting structure is dispensationalism. - Back cover.
