Dominion and Dynasty: A Theology of the Hebrew… by Stephen G. Dempster

The thesis of this book is that, the Hebrew Bible (the TANAKH), is to be read as one whole book, instead of many unrelated texts. The unity of the TANAKH is made possible due to its canonical nature and narrative framework. Moreover, the author argues for two main uniting themes throughout the storyline of the TANAKH, namely dominion and dynasty or geography and genealogy.
