The Covenant of the Torch: A Forgotten Encounter in the History of the Exodus and Wilderness Journey (Book 2)
The Covenant of the Torch made with Abraham is the most significant among all the covenants in the Bible. Why? It's the most detailed yet condensed summary of God's divine administration for redemption that outlines the work of restoration of His godly people and holy land.
In this book, Rev. Abraham Park brings to life the Covenant of the Torch, and helps us to understand—accurately, and in chronological detail—692 years of redemptive history starting from Abraham, including the great exodus, the wilderness journey and the conquest of Canaan.
Just as his best-seller The Genesis Genealogies has helped readers to better understand the time frames and relationships in the Book of Genesis, Rev. Park now helps us to carefully study the books of Exodus up to Joshua, and to realize what those events and participants tell us regarding God's larger plan. This book offers:
A detailed chronology of 692 years from Abraham to the Israelites' conquest of Canaan.
The first ever map of all 42 camp sites in the wilderness.
Color photos of the locations in the wilderness journey.
A theologically sound method of viewing God's Word through the perspective of God's administration in the history of redemption.
Wisdom and insight on how to overcome the spiritual "wilderness" in our lives of faith today.
Despite periods of spiritual darkness, unbelief, complaining and grumbling by the people of God as they wandered in the desert, we see God's faithfulness in fulfilling His Word and the Covenant of the Torch. And by understanding the chronological flow of the biblical events in a systematic manner, we gain a much broader and deeper grasp of God's plan of salvation.
This title is part of the History of Redemption series which includes:
Book 1: The Genesis Genealogies
Book 2: The Covenant of the Tourch
Book 3: The Unquenchable Lamp of the Covenant
Book 4: God's Profound and Mysterious Providence
Book 5: The Promise of the Eternal Covenant

I am not a Christian, but have many times in many year wanted to read the old testament. I was searching for the genealogy chart many years and was so happy that I found this book and it was easy to read. Now, I am going to buy The Genesis Genealogies.

The ‘Covenant of The Torch’ is a continuation of Book 1 The Genesis Genealogies- on God’s Administration in the History of Redemption.
It’s indeed very details with lots of research done in writing of this book, which is good for every Bible student.
Based on the covenant God made with Abram in Genesis 15:12-17, The author has diligently provided a very concise historical timeline events on the life’s of the old patriarch in the OT that shows each and every of God’s promises have been fulfilled. An interesting book to read
