Description
Summary:The paper offers an overview of the different theological perspectives, which have matured in the history of Old Testament formation, on the central theme of the covenant: that is, of the unique relationship between YHWH and Israel. Beyond the differences between the schools of thought, which have contributed to the discussion on this important theological motif, there is an irreducible polarity, which distinguishes the biblical vision of the covenant: the primacy of God’s grace and the value of man’s freedom.
