A Layman’s Guide to Redemptive-Historical Interpretation

Yesterday in the mail I received the newest issue of “Southern Seminary” magazine. Right now one of the popular topics in evangelicalism is on Christ in the Old Testament. I just returned from The Gospel Coalition Conference where the theme was “Preaching Christ in the Old Testament.” This issue of SBTS’ magazine is about “Teaching About Jesus Through the Old Testament.”

One article in particular caught my attention by Robert L. Plummer, “What is Redemptive-Historical Interpretation? A Laymen’s Guide.” If you are in my Sunday School class I would implore you to read this. It is only two pages and will be well worth your time. This article, in a conversation format, is exactly where we are headed in Sunday School in the coming months.
