Horatius Bonar Horatius Bonar (1808 - 1889)
Life
Life is a journey, not a home; a road, not a city of habitation; and the enjoyments and blessings we have are but little inns on the roadside of life, where we may be refreshed for a moment, that we may with new strength press on to the end - to the rest that remaineth for the people of God.

Synopsis
"This book attempts to treat the various covenants of the Old Testament from an exegetical, biblical-theological and clearly Reformed perspective. The richness of a covenantal approach to understanding the Bible is presented, along with interaction with other viewpoints. Although other books present the concept of the covenants, this book's valuable contribution is in trying to uncover how the successive covenants develop the central thrust of the biblical message - the various covenant themes of the Bible are tied together with the supreme focus on Jesus Christ. This surfaces constantly throughout the book but unfortunately there in only one chapter explicitly on the Christ and the consummation of the covenant. Read this alongside Dumbrell's book Covenant & Creation and make up your own mind on exegetical (but very important!) minutiae as they come to different conclusions in places."
