Jason S. DeRouchie (PhD, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) currently serves as Research Professor of Old Testament and Biblical Theology at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He has written numerous articles and books that wrestle with the message of the Old Testament and its relationship to Christians, including What the Old Testament Authors Really Cared About and How to Understand and Apply the Old Testament. For nearly two decades he has proclaimed the excellencies of Christ and sought to nurture hope in the gospel from the whole of Scripture through his local church and academic ministry.
Finally! An introduction to the only Bible Jesus had that tries to
makes sense of each book by highlighting its life-giving message.
This volume is invitingly organized and composed, and delightfully
illustrated.--Daniel I Block, Gunther H. Knoedler Professor of Old
Testament "Wheaton College" (8/1/2013 12:00:00 AM)
How could I not enjoy a book in which the editor says 'is designed
as a springboard for delight in God--the supreme Savior, Sovereign,
and Satisfier of the world'? Jason DeRouchie has a sure hand when
it comes to guiding a team of scholars. The aroma of his
God-centered, Christ-exalting commitments permeate this survey...I
would happily put this in the hand of every church member.--John
Piper, Founder and Teacher "DesiringGod.org" (8/1/2013 12:00:00

No ordinary survey! This clear, concise, and easy-to-understand
text will help church folks and serious students alike grasp the
contribution of the Old Testament to the Bible as a single text
with a unified plot structure that finds ultimate fulfillment in
Jesus Christ. Beautiful pictures and helpful diagrams aid
communication in a powerful way. I heartily recommend it!--Peter J.
Gentry, Professor of Old Testament Interpretation "The Southern
Baptist Theological Seminary" (8/1/2013 12:00:00 AM)
This book sets new standards for an Old Testament survey. The
Christ-centered emphasis is a breath of fresh air. The canonical
theology is deep and rich. It is exegetically faithful. The
user-friendly features are not just easy to follow; they flat-out
arrest your attention at times. In a crowded field of competitors,
it is a standout. I commend it highly and plan to turn to it
often.--Jason Meyer, Pastor for Preaching and Vision "Bethlehem
Baptist Church, Minneapolis, MN" (8/1/2013 12:00:00 AM)
This clear and attractive book combines academic rigor with
devotional warmth...The authors have taught Old Testament courses
many times, and they know how to connect with students.--Andy
Naselli, Assistant Professor of New Testament and Biblical Theology
"Bethlehem College and Seminary" (8/1/2013 12:00:00 AM)
This is one of the most user-friendly surveys of the Old
Testament--Jesus' Bible--that I have seen....I highly recommend
this book.--David M. Howard, Jr., Professor of Old Testament
"Bethel Seminary" (8/1/2013 12:00:00 AM)
This is truly a remarkable resource for the student of
Scripture....Unlike your standard (and all too often stodgy) survey
of the Old Testament, this volume is written in a vibrant and
engaging style and is visually stunning. But best of all, it is
distinctively Christ-centered. This will be the book to which I
send all future inquisitive students of God's Word.--Sam Storms,
Lead Pastor for Preaching and Vision "Bridgeway Church, Oklahoma
City, OK" (8/1/2013 12:00:00 AM)
