We live in a day of advanced technology, but what lies behind it is applied knowledge. Knowledge is a sweeping term, serving as a common denominator under-girding science, philosophy, theology and the list goes on. It speaks to the condition of learnedness as opposed to merely opinion, or its absence, ignorance. Christianity is knowledge based too. Like pursuing a philosophic line of reasoning, this book engages the biblical trajectory that follows from the Tree of Knowledge. Drawing upon the great thinkers, topics such as the great debate over faith and reason, postmodernism, law in the in the confines of covenant, justice in the context of dominion, and the role of the Holy Spirit are addressed, distilling out key components related to knowledge, showing how the path forward leads into covenant-relationship.

I am connected through GoodReads to the author. He asked if I would like to read his book. I am truly glad I said “yes.” This is one of those books that I didn’t know I wanted, but truly needed.
“…knowledge is more than understanding is apparent in the student who gets it and then forgets it before the exam.” ~ Dante Aligheri, THE DIVINE COMEDY
This book was a whirlwind of information, which gave a great basis, in my opinion, for greater understanding of the Bible and the plethora of knowledge which exists upon the pages of all it’s books. Which, by the way, will require me to read it again. Due to the vast array of knowledge, I am certain that I did miss somethings.
I am truly grateful to Jeffrey L. Romine for entrusting to me such a book! Thank you, dear sir…I have been greatly blessed through your book.
This book is well worth the time to read, great knowledge stored within which can, and assuredly will, open the floodgates of understanding.
Godspeed & Good Reads!
