ꔛ★「認識神三部曲」磅礡合體ꔛ★最深入淺出的聖經神學邀您一同加入父、子、聖靈的深刻團契！少有一本書讓基督徒意識到，我們需要好好認識舊約，因為耶穌自己也是從舊約認出了他的身分和使命！若想真正認識耶穌，進而認識藉由神子完全啟示自身的父神，和在其中持續工作的聖靈，那麼認識塑造耶穌的舊約，就是條必經之路。若不認識舊約的故事，我們怎能全然明白耶穌所完成的故事？唯有認識了雅巍對亞伯拉罕的應許，我們才能看懂以色列和耶穌的使命，及其與福音的關係。唯有認識了以色列人對律法和聖潔的信念，才能理解耶穌劃時代的救贖衝擊，為世界帶來了哪些震盪與安慰。唯有認識了舊約中「立約」、「受膏」的涵義，聆聽先知們的信息，才能完整體會父神深廣的心意和聖靈從創世以來的工作。大師級聖經學者萊特寫給普羅大眾最好的「認識神三書」，一次收錄在《從舊約認識神》，帶領讀者回到聖經，以既平易又縝密的方式，清楚認識父、子、聖靈個別的特性與行動，不同於系統神學較抽象、概念性的討論，萊特引領讀者在聖經敘事的具體脈絡中，對三一神有本於聖經、多面向的豐富認識。讀者可在一部曲「認識耶穌」中，透過舊約對耶穌的層層影響，更認識耶穌，同時也對舊約有更好的認識；在二部曲「認識父神」中，從雅巍於舊約歷史的作為、與人類的互動、所重視的價值等面向，更明瞭父神的心意；在三部曲「認識聖靈」中，從創造、賦能、預言、膏立、再臨等五大層面，補足我們對聖靈過於單薄的認識。本書將舊約和新約連貫了起來，使父、子、聖靈從舊約到新約一脈相承的軸線得以顯現，融合了萊特深厚的學術功底和牧者心腸，是本有溫度的「聖經神學普及讀本」，幫助今日的我們，透過聖經對三一神有更好的認識，以及更深刻的團契。所有認真的基督徒都會同意，如果要確實理解聖經的信息，就得認識舊約的教導。在這趟探索旅程中，萊特是非常傑出的嚮導，因為他不僅是一流的學者，更有能力以平易近人的方式與他人分享他對舊約的認識。因此即使是對這領域沒有涉獵的人，讀起這本書來也會覺得有趣又好懂。——費蘭度（Ajith Fernando）萊特的生命結合了學者的智慧和宣教士的熱忱，這兩項恩賜在本書中的每一頁都躍然紙上。萊特的著作在我作為基督徒的思考和實踐上，有無可抹滅的貢獻。因此，看到他的重要著作匯集成此三部曲大作，讓我非常興奮。——坎迪亞（Krish Kandiah）Home For Good創辦人God Is Stranger
