Overview

Prophecies about the restoration of Israel in the Old Testament have stirred the imagination of scholars and poets.This scenario introduces the hermeneutical challenge that must be addressed in this paper. It stands to reason that the predictions about a glorious future for Israel remain largely unfulflled—at least as far as a literal fulfllment would be expected.

Key Features

• Argues that the Old Testament prophecies about the restoration of Israel must be understood as conditional upon Israel’s faithfulness to the covenant
• States that God’s relationship with humanity, and subsequently with Israel, takes place within the framework of the covenant
• Takes into consideration how the New Testament interprets the Old Testament, along with Israel and its institutions, in light of the person and work of Christ

Contents

• Israel from a Covenantal Perspective
• Israel from an Intertextual Perspective
• Hermeneutical Implications
