Waiting for the Land: The Story Line of the Pentateuch

How should Israel's waiting for their land shape our reading of the Pentateuch, and how should this shape the hope of the church today?

Treating the Pentateuch as a coherent and progressive story, Waiting for the Land is the first book-length exploration of these questions. Following an introduction to the Pentateuch, Leder examines each book, showing that the promise of the land was not realized. He then shows how the contemporary church should wait for its land.
