Christ the Center How the Rule of Faith, the Nomina Sacra, and Numerical Patterns Shape the Canon by Tomas Bokedal

Scripture is a beautiful mosaic of Christ. In Christ the Center, Tomas Bokedal shows how the canon is shaped by numerical patterns of nomina sacra--scribal reverence for divine names. These patterns, which especially revolve around Christ, reveal the devotional and theological preoccupations of the earliest Christians. The rule of faith is not a later development; it is in the very text of Scripture. Christ the Center shows a remarkable interplay between Scripture and theology.
