The whole intensive discussion shows that Old Testament commentary and Christian theology are no longer kept separate.The contributors include Gerhard von Rad and Walther Eichrodt on the typological interpretation of the Old Testament, Rudolf Bultmann and Walther Zimmerli on prophecy and fulfilment, Martin Noth onthe 'representation' in proclamation, J. J. Stamm on Jesus Christ andhis Scripture, and Th. C. Vriezen on the biblical doctrine of salvation. There is a bibliography.
