These diverse essays comprise an illuminating investigation into that question [what is sin?], searching the biblical roots of the vocabulary of sin, the doctrine’s historical development, and its dogmatic implications ... A lucid venture into a difficult topic. This volume will serve as an excellent reference work not only for scholars, but for clergy as well.
