Ch28

Title: Divine Misdirection

 

The chapter content focus on how messianic prophecy was deliberately cryptic—how it was laid out in breadcrumb trails (thematic elements) throughout the Old Testament, as opposed to propositional statements. The bibliography in the chapter and added here focus on the thematic elements in the Old Testament and the Second Temple (“Intertestamental”) Period.
