I was twice blest last week!
First, I was sent all of Dr. Kaiser's JETS articles I was missing. They're up on the side column now and they are:
- The Present State of Old Testament Studies
- The Davidic Promise And The Inclusion Of The Gentiles (Amos 9:9-15 And Acts 15:13-18): A Test Passage For Theological Systems
- The Current Crisis In Exegesis And The Apostolic Use Of Deuteronomy 25:4 In 1 Corinthians 9:8-10
- The Promise To David In Psalm 16 And Its Application In Acts 2:25-33 And 13:32-37
- Inner Biblical Exegesis As A Model For Bridging The “Then” And “Now” Gap: Hos 12:1-6
- God's Promise Plan and His Gracious Law
- New Approaches To Old Testament Ethics
Second, I received and email from Dr. Kaiser.
The key book in my estimation is Willis J. Beecher, The Prophets and the Promise. This was his 1904 Stone lecture at Princeton, often reprinted. It is the most important book you can read even though the section on the prophets is way out of date.
...The concept is partially in Paul and Elizabeth Achtemeir's The Old Testament Roots of our Faith (Abingdon Press, 1962), but more directly in George Bristow's The Promise of God: God's Unchangeable Purpose throuh Human History (Grand Rapids, MI.: Gospel Folio Press, 1997).
