Jason Meyer surveys the various differences that have been argued between the two covenants in The End of the Law, carefully and inductively perfoming a semantic, grammatical, and contextual analysis of all the Pauline texts dealing with covenant concepts.Book seven of the New American Commentary Studies in Bible & Theology series, an extension of the long-respected New American Commentary.
