- Synopsis
- Sprinkle (Old Testament, Crossroads College) explores the Pentateuch to find what Christians are to make of Mosaic law, based upon his understanding of how these principles serve as foundations for the Christian life and life in the world. He finds that all biblical laws are relevant for Christian believers, that understanding the Old Testament is a large part of understanding God's grace and that the Old Testament has a unique way of informing the moral system behind secular law. He explores the role of Mosaic law in a personal relationship with God and the applications to such topics as abortion, theft and deprivation of property, the notion of "clean v. unclean," purity, divorce, sexual ethics, war, and justice.
