Peter Leithart shows in Theopolitan Reading that the whole Bible grows from seeds planted in the early chapters of Genesis.
The Fundamentals will be followed by a collection of Theopolis Explorations volumes that will examine Scripture, liturgy, and culture in more depth and detail..
The early volumes of the series summarize our convictions about biblical interpretation, liturgical theology and practice, and the church\'s cultural and political mission.
The Theopolis Fundamentals Series introduces the Biblical Horizons / Theopolis outlook and agenda to a new generation.
Leithart serves as a mentor and invites readers to imitate him as he imitates Christ Jesus.
To be good readers, we need mentors who model good reading.
Rules are of limited use.
Theopolitan Reading doesn\'t lay out detailed rules for reading.
All the themes of Genesis come to their climax in Jesus, the Last Adam who delivers His new Eve, the church, so that together they can transform the wild waste of the world into an image of the new Jerusalem.
The Scriptures are a story of Eden lost, regained, and glorified into a heavenly city.
Adam is in the background of all the men of the Bible, and Eve in the background of all the women.
The events of Scripture take place in the three-story world created in Genesis 1.
