This first volume in the series, Deliver Us, fittingly begins with the narrative of the exodus. Brueggemann has consistently brought attention to how the themes of the exodus event and the stories of the giving of the law that follow lay the groundwork for a biblical understanding of salvation.

Even if the writers did not fully understand what they were conveying, God’s plan becomes clear in A Compendium to the Bible.

The book The Satanic Kerygma contains a godless, satanic doctrine, a theology of godlessness—the biblical mystery of godlessness. It constitutes a study of theistic delusional truths and the path of man's transformation to a state of total godlessness. If we take the Latin maxim: fides quaerens intellectum—faith seeking understanding—as a definition of theology, then a theology of godlessness means an understanding that rejects theistic faith altogether.

The carefully crafted storytelling in this two-volume set maintains an accurate rendering of the Scriptures, portraying historical narratives, prophecy, wisdom literature, poetic songs, letters, and the apocalyptic book of Revelation.
