A Father Who Keeps His Promises God Covenant Love in Scripture Scott Hahn Paul Smith 9780867167863 Books

I had the digital version of the book on my kindle. I carry it with me during my daily visits to the Lord on my guard hour. It took me a few months to finish the book as I only read it when I am in the presence of the Lord. I was chewing on the words and tried to digest them slowly glancing at the Lord from time to time saying "Ah, so that is what you meant..". It helped me understand the old testament which was so confusing in a sense that I couldn't understand what the Eternal Father meant and why He did what He did. The author refer to the Bible verses, history and practices which helped in relation to understanding the culture at the time the Scripture was written. It made me see clearer the role of the Church as the bride and us as individual bride the Lord loved so much. After reading the book, I have a new concept of the Church and realized the whole story of creation and salvation is truly the best love story ever written for all time. It goes beyond human understanding and perception of love and mercy. It made me stop and stare at the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament in awe "Lord, what kind of love is this? Unfathomable, extra ordinary, exemplary..." There is no word to describe. It made me think that "wow, I do really have an awesome Eternal Father and God and I am glad I am adopted" . He does keep His promises.
Highly recommended for those who are having difficulties understanding the Old Testament and correlating it with the New Testament. Its like treasure hunting where the things that are hidden are made clear . Like jewels being uncovered that builds a concrete and beautiful bridge parallel to the New Testament. Totally awesome.

A Father Who Keeps His Promises God Covenant Love in Scripture Scott Hahn Paul Smith 9780867167863 Books Reviews

I have been studying Sacred Scripture for several years but "A Father Who Keeps His Promises" really brought my understanding level to deeper levels. Dr. Hahn systematically explains why things happened from Genesis through Revelation, not just that they happened, but WHY they happened. Boring parts like Scripture like genealogies came alive and provided intrigue instead of meaningless names on a list. Wars and times of peace gave clues to what happened and what will happen. Finally, and most importantly, this book opened my eyes to the true meanings of marriage, adoption, worship and suffering, and what my final destination can and should be.
Incredibly well-written, well-researched book that walks you through the scriptural covenants between God and His people. The scholarship in this book is second only to the love this author shows for his God and his readers. He takes complex subjects and makes them easier to understand while talking to his audience as intelligent human beings. The reader is left with a deeper appreciation for the bible and a desire to walk closer to God.
This book was an amazing piece of work. It helped me to understand what Catholics believe what they do about the Bible. It explores things from a different angle than I was expecting to see things. I rated it four stars because I am a tough grader.

I needed this book in training for a crash course in the six main covenants in salvation history. It was a helpful supplement to the class. Additionally, it was a helpful aid to turn to during the classes that I had to teach this summer to kids.
Scott Hahn hits another home run with this book. He breaks down the various covenants that God established through the Old Testament and the one He established in the New Testament. He defines exactly what a "covenant" is and how God has developed and enlarged them over the centuries. This book will help you understand the structure of the Bible better and What God has had in mind for us all along. Thank you Mr. Hahn and I look forward to your future works!
"A Father Who Keeps His Promises" is a study of God's promises to mankind, first to Adam, then to Noah, Abraham, Moses and, finally, to David as He builds not only the human family, but a kingdom for all believers everywhere. Scott Hahn weaves history, language, culture, humor (!) and scripture into a fascinating narrative of the origins of Judaism which sets the stage for the arrival of Jesus as the star player in the expansion of His kingdom. It is a book to be studied, savored, and reflected upon.
Just a simple review from a simple man. I am not a biblical scholar and have been challenged to understand many of the books of the Old Testament. I finally decided to see what writings were out there to help. I came across this book by Dr. Hahn and have to say I simply love it. Generally speaking, he provides a clear and thorough review of the Old Testament. I have such a better understanding of historical events that occurred from the Creation of Adam and Eve to the Birth of Jesus Christ. He does an incredible job of tying together Old Testament events, Laws, Rulers, etc. and he makes it make sense. I plan to read the book again after I finish the last few pages. It's that good...
A Father Who Keeps His Promises is one of Scott Hahn's best works. It provides a great explanation, and can be used as an educational tool to tie the New Testament to the Old Testament. Many Catholics, and perhaps other Christians as well, labor with an inadequate understanding of the Old Testament, or how the law and the prophets were fulfilled in the New Testament. Indeed, even the Apostles lacked this understanding until Jesus' Resurrection, when he explained everything to them. This book is a useful executive summary of Scott Hahn's doctoral thesis, Kinship by Covenant, which is probably too deep, too long and too expensive for the average reader. I whole heartedly recommend A Father Who Keeps His Promises to anyone who wants to deepen his/her faith by scriptural study.
