God and World in the Old Testament: A Relational Theology of Creation

Fretheim presents here the Old Testament view of the Creator God, the created world, and our role in creation. Beginning with The Beginning, he demonstrates that creation is open-ended and connected. Then, from every part of the Old Testament, Fretheim explores the fullness and richness of Israel's thought regarding creation: from the dynamic created order to human sin, from judgment and environmental devastation to salvation, redemption, and a new creation.
