THE LAST ADAM. ISRAEL, THE NATIONS AND THE MYSTERY OF THE STRANGER

In The Last Adam: Israel, the Nations and the Mystery of the Stranger, Darla Sharp examines the biblical patterns that reveal God's plan of redemption from the Old Testament through the New. Following the thread of Scripture, this book explores Israel's covenant story, the place of the nations, and the meaning of the "e;stranger"e; who was once outside but is brought near through Christ.Through biblical types, shadows, covenants, and prophetic patterns, The Last Adam invites readers to look again at familiar passages and see how they connect to the greater mystery revealed in Jesus Christ.This book is for readers who want to move beyond isolated verses and study the Bible as one connected story—allowing Scripture to interpret Scripture and tracing the patterns that lead from the first Adam to the Last Adam, Jesus Christ.Discover how the Law, the Prophets, the Gospels, and the writings of the apostles bear witness to one unfolding plan: God bringing together a people for Himself through Christ.
