In Exodus 34 Moses asks to see God’s glory, and Godreveals himself as a God who is merciful and just. James HamiltonJr. contends that from this passage comes a biblical theology thatunites the meta-narrative of Scripture under one central theme:God’s glory in salvation through judgment.Hamilton begins in the Old Testament by showing that Israel wassaved through God’s judgment on the Egyptians and theCaananites. God was glorified through both his judgment and mercy,accorded in salvation to Israel. The New Testament unfolds theultimate display of God’s glory in justice and mercy, as itwas God’s righteous judgment shown on the cross that broughtus salvation. God’s glory in salvation through judgment willbe shown at the end of time, when Christ returns to judge hisenemies and save all who have called on his name.Hamilton moves through the Bible book by book, showing thatthere is one theological center to the whole Bible. Thevolume’s systematic method and scope make it a uniqueresource for pastors, professors, and students.
