God of the Living is a profound volume, worthy of careful study. --
Michael Chan, Luther Seminary -- Word & World
Critically informed, exhaustive in treatment, integrative in
conception, this volume makes a rare contribution: a scholarly
presentation of images of God in both the OT and the NT. -- Mark W.
Hamilton, Abilene Christian University -- Restoration Quarterly
[Feldmeier and Spieckermann] present a co-written volume on God
from an Old Testament and a New Testament perspective - much to be
applauded in these days of over-specialization. The weighty
resulting volume is a strong statement of a largely traditional way
of conceptualizing 'biblical theology': the presentation of [a
consistent] picture of God across the canon. -- Richard S. Briggs,
St John's College -- Modern Believing
An impressive work...representing the greatest minds in Biblical
Theology does more than present God as they leaf through the pages
of the Bible but they also take the historical matters contained
within the text and bring them to light for the reader. -- Don
Haflich -- The Reformed Register
The straightforward title of this volume directly communicates what
the subject matter is, but it cannot convey its extraordinary
character. Feldmeier and Spieckermann, specialists in New and Old
Testament respectively, together undertake an exploration of the
nature and character of God that ranges across the canon. The
result is no mere catalogue of texts and themes but a bold and
often beautiful exposition of the God who lives and who brings life
into being. -- Beverly Roberts Gaventa -- The Christian Century
