The Sovereign Seed: A Typological Defense in Romans 9:113

Have we missed Paul's recall of the Old Testament figures in Romans 9? Paul defends God against an accusation of unreliability by way of a typological use of Abraham and company.Volume I of this definitive series (Romans 9:1-13) analyzes Paul's defense of God's covenantal fidelity in the wake of Israel's rejection of Jesus. Operating with the precision of a seasoned litigator, Paul utilizes a complex web of Old Testament typology that few modern commentators have fully unraveled-until now.Interacting skillfully with classic and modern literature across church history, Dr. Vic Rockhill examines the true mechanism of God's elective choice. Does Paul's argument point directly to his well-known justification by faith alone (Sola Fide)? Or does it rest entirely on a sovereign condition that no human can satisfy (Sola Deo)? Comprehensively researched and fiercely argued, this volume promises to disrupt the traditional paradigms of both sides of the debate.
