Mark Elliott shows that, contrary to received opinion, the Bible has a lot to say about providence as a distinct doctrine within the wider scope of God's acts of salvation. This book by a leading scholar of Christian theology and exegesis is a capstone of years of research on the history and theology of the doctrine of providence"-- Amazon.com; "A leading scholar of Christian theology and exegesis offers a constructive account of the doctrine of providence"-- ER -
