Covenant theology has been a vital topic in both biblical studies and historic and systematic theology. Unfortunately, these disciplines rarely intersect. Such a predicament is answered in the new book Covenant: A Vital Element of Reformed Theology: Biblical, Historical and Systematic-Theological Perspectives (Brill, 2021), which takes a multi-disciplinary approach, with contributions aimed at interaction between exegesis and dogmatics. Join us as speak with Jaap Dekker about his contribution to Covenant, which considers an elusive reference to the Davidic covenant within the book of Isaiah. Jaap Dekker is Professor of Biblical Studies and Christian Identity on the Henk de Jong Chair at the Theological University of Kampen, the Netherlands. He is widely published, with many published studies focusing on the book of Isaiah. Michael Morales is Professor of Biblical Studies at Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary, and the author of The Tabernacle Pre-Figured: Cosmic Mountain Ideology in Genesis and Exodus(Peeters, 2012), Who Shall Ascend the Mountain of the Lord?: A Biblical Theology of Leviticus (IVP Academic, 2015), and Exodus Old and New: A Biblical Theology of Redemption (IVP Academic, 2020).
