A Biblical Theology of the Royal Priesthood from Genesis to Revelation
"You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light." —1 Peter 2:9
From Genesis to Revelation, the theme of the royal priesthood runs through the biblical story from the garden of Eden through the priesthood of Israel to Jesus Christ—the true and better high priest. It culminates with the creation of God's new covenant people, called out of the nations to be his priests to the nations. In this concise treatment, David Schrock traces this theme of priesthood throughout the Bible and displays to readers how Jesus, the great high priest, informs the worship, discipleship, and evangelism of the church.
Short and Accessible: Traces the theme of priesthood from Genesis to Revelation and gives practical application for the church today
Written for Laypeople and Church Leaders: Excellent for students, Bible studies, small groups, and leaders of all levels
