Additional information
by James B. Jordan (Author)
Through New Eyes sets forth the Biblical understanding of the world, and then traces the development of that world through the successive "covenants" of the Bible--each new covenant transforming the previous one, bringing forth "a new world." Each of these "worlds" was given a symbolic model appropriate to the times. By a study of these models, and of the societies they represented, Jordan is able to set forth the Biblical view of the world and of historical change and progress, and make relevant and important applications to the present day.
