2 Prophecy and Promise - Part 3: The Promise of the Saviour - E1: The Genesis of a Promise
In this episode of Theology Unpacked, Dr John Moffatt SJ explores the theme of ‘covenant’ and God’s promise of a rescuer for God’s people.
It highlights how early Christians, through a prophetic rereading of ancient texts, saw Jesus as the ultimate realisation of David as the model rescuer-Messiah.
He also explores how the New Testament presents Jesus as the fulfilment of Old Testament covenants, focusing on God’s promise of an everlasting kingdom through David’s lineage.
