description: Fretheim presents here the Old Testament view of the Creator God the created world and our role in creation. Beginning with The Beginning he demonstrates that creation is open-ended and connected. Then from every part of the Old Testament Fretheim explores the fullness and richness of Israel's thought regarding creation: from the dynamic created order to human sin from judgment and environmental devastation to salvation redemption and a new creation.
