In ‘Biblical Theology,’ Geerhardus Vos shows us how to discover the richness of the biblical story as we’re drawn ever closer to the heart of God’s redemptive purposes.

Given the popularity of resources like The Bible Project and Sally Lloyd Jones’s The Jesus Storybook Bible, it’s hard to remember that biblical theology wasn’t always such a common approach to Scripture among evangelicals. We owe biblical theology’s popularity, in part, to the work of Geerhardus Vos (1862–1949), who’s often referred to as the father of Reformed biblical theology. As distinguished professor of biblical theology at Princeton Theological Seminary, Vos culminated his career by systematically articulating his understanding of biblical theology as a distinct discipline.
