Major Themes in the Old Testament

    
The discipline of Bible exposition is interested in biblical theology and tracing major themes in Scripture. So I am often fascinated by the themes that different interpreter identify in either books or in the Old or New Testaments. Marty Stevens in a recent book identifies four major theological themes in the Old Testament. The themes (helpfully alliterated) are:

Creation
Covenant
Cultus
Character
