Dr. James M. Hamilton Jr. is Associate Professor of Biblical Theology at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and serves as preaching pastor at Kenwood Baptist church. He is the author of God’s Indwelling Presence: The Holy Spirit in the Old and New Testaments and God’s Glory in Salvation through Judgment: A Biblical Theology.
Andy Cheung: Your forthcoming book is titled, God's Glory in Salvation through Judgment: A Biblical Theology. Please tell us why you decided to write this and how your book differs from the approach taken from recent authors such as Thomas Schreiner, Christopher Wright, and Bruce Waltke among others.
Dr James Hamilton: For as long as I can remember I have wanted to understand the Bible and help others understand it, too. This was never an end in itself but always a desire to know God through Christ by the Spirit and live in a way that was pleasing to him. So I mainly wanted to write this book in order to understand the Bible so as to know and please God.
As I studied biblical theology, it was curious to me that the glory of God was absent from discussions of the center of biblical theology. At that time I was also making my way through Isaiah in Hebrew, slowly working through the text and reading it repeatedly. I became convinced that the glory of God in salvation through judgment was the center of Isaiah’s theology, and then I began to test that thesis against other parts of the Bible: it matched what happened at the exodus, at the cross, and at the consummation. Once all this came together, I wanted to make a case that the glory of God in salvation through judgment is indeed the center of biblical theology.

With its change of name last year from Midlands Bible College to King's Evangelical Divinity School, as well as switching to a new, more powerful server as we continue to expand our eCampus, the college is continuing its long-term migration of all its websites to the new server under the new domains. We have forwarding software in place for now anyway, but if you do happen to link to any of the college sites you should update links to reflect the new URLs (eg http://www.kingsdivinity.org/ instead of http://www.midbible.ac.uk/), as eventually automatic forwarding wil be switched off.
Please also note that this weekend the King's blog's URL has changed to http://blog.kingsdivinity.org/.

Students wishing to obtain funding towards taking a B.Th. with Kings Evangelical Divinity School may now apply for The Grafton-Holt Scholarship Award for Eschatological Research. The new award was set up by former KEDS student Paul Grafton-Holt and his wife Cynthia, who are providing this scholarship grant to help someone formally study the Word of God. Paul became KEDS’ first student to complete the B.Th programme and receive his degree in 2009 at the annual awards ceremony in Wales. He is now conducting research for his M.Phil at the UWL by examining Luke’s perspective on the eschatological view of the intermediate state. Full details of the fund and application information is available on the scholarships page.
We are grateful to Paul and Cynthia for helping KEDS students in this way, and we wish him well as he continues his postgraduate studies at Lampeter.
