How does the 'law', Torah, shape Christian thinking about ethics? For a start, it is not 'law' in the sense we usually think about it; much is about principle rather than practice; and the gift of the Spirit enables us to fulfil rather than abolish it. This classic study from a leading scholar offers a fresh perspective on what we find in Exodus, Deuteronomy and Leviticus. Read in context, these texts ask challenging questions of our contemporary thining about ethics.
