Buku Do We Need the New Testament?: Letting the Old Testament Speak for Itself – John Goldingay

 Do we need the Old Testament? That’s a familiar question, often  asked. But as an Old Testament scholar, John Goldingay turns that  question on its head: Do we need the New Testament? What’s new about the  New Testament? After all, the Old Testament was the only Bible Jesus  and the disciples knew. Jesus affirmed it as the Word of God. Do we need  anything more? And what happens when we begin to look at the Old  Testament, which is the First Testament, not as a deficient old work in  need of a christological makeover, but as a rich and splendid revelation  of God’s faithfulness to Israel and the world? In this cheerfully  provocative yet probingly serious book, John Goldingay sets the question  and views it from a variety of angles. Under his expert hand, each  facet unfolds the surprising richness of the Old Testament and  challenges us to recalibrate our perspective on it.
