Old Testament (1215)
  1. Every part of Jesus’ encounter with Mary Magdalene in John 20 was incredibly intentional and personal for God to systematically redeem what was lost.
  2. A showdown with the prophets of Baal.
  3. The Prophet and the widow.
  4. Hamilton writes lucidly. He has that rare gift of walking the tightrope between the academy and the church, being able to communicate to both groups in the same book.
  5. Everything going in reverse leading up to Elijah.
  6. A reduction in idolatry right before an increase.
  7. Obviously, the LORD has no intention of slapping a bandage on creation. He will completely restore—it will be made new.
  8. Jerusalem, temple, and king, all three bespoke of Yahweh’s kingship, as well as of His Kingdom and presence on earth and all the blessings bound up with it.
  9. The danger of acting like an idolator.
  10. The LORD vindicates His people in the midst of their misery and despair—for this He has come.
  11. Repentance can change history.
  12. The Exodus always remains a continual and present reality for the people of Israel—it is always on their mind. It was and remained the big salvific event of the Old Testament, yet at the same time it points forward to what God will yet/continue to do to save His people.
