The Cosmic Covenant

Biblical Themes of Justice, Peace and the Integrity of Creation

About this book

Murray's study of the covenant theme begins with a chronological survey of the concept, beginning at the creation itself. He traces this theme through the Bible, noting its key components of justice and peace. The concept is a shared one between Judaism and Christianity, and Murray suggests that it continues to have ecological as well as spiritual relevance to the world today.
