Servant Theology
Author: George A. F. Knight
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 9780802810397
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
"George Knight has produced a very fluent and readable commentary on these important chapters of the book of Isaiah, which, more than any other part of the Old Testament, anticipate the Cross of Christ. By concentrating on the theological issues that are raised and by adopting a non-technical style of presentation, Knight introduces the reader to some of the leading motifs of biblical theology. In view of the complex questions which relate to the structure and unity of the book of Isaiah, I believe that all who share an evangelical faith and who have regard for the theological importance of the Old Testament will find this commentary rewarding and enriching." -- R.E. Clements, King's College, University of London.

Book Description
Moving back home to Ohio after her beloved grandparents are killed in a car crash, former ad executive Jillian Morgan believes she'll never be happy - or find love - again. Not even a bag of "gypsy gold" gifted to her by a local fortune teller can change Jillian's mind. One evening, while wishing for a white knight to ride in and save her, Jillian accidentally spills the gold flakes over an old book of paper dolls, and suddenly, the man of her dreams is standing right before her - in the flesh! The only problem is that just moments before, he was simply a drawing on a piece of paper. And he certainly wasn't this human. Or this sexy. Daniel Carrington, otherwise known as "Daniel The Dream Date Doll," is every woman's fantasy come to life - literally! Created by Jillian's grandfather twenty years before to accompany a line of vinyl dolls, Daniel has existed in paper doll form for a very long time. Now that he's human, he must convince Jillian that she's ready to heal her broken heart and find love again. He also needs to convince her that he's been designed for one purpose and one purpose only - to be her one and only dream date!
