§42 The Yes of God the Creator – a long-winded expostion of three good points, concluding with an astounding excursus on the over-confident privilege of apologetics and optimism

§41.3 The Covenant as the Internal Basis of Creation. A fabulous section for its treatment of the trees in Eden; but a missed opportunity to divest the sign of marriage from its accomodation to patriarchy.

§41.2 Creation as the External Basis of the Covenant. A pretty important and sometimes very illuminating section

§41.1 Creation, History, and Creation History. This section would drive the inerrantists crazy but it's obviously right, and more Christian.

§40 Faith in God the Creator. Certainly one of the overly verbose sections.

§26.2 Knowability of God: Readiness of Man
– a pretty 'meh' section until the excursus on article 1 of the Barmen Declaration, which is pure fire

§26.1 Knowability of God: Readiness of God

Finished §35 The Election of the Individual

Which finally completes my read of Ch VII, The Election of God, begun in 2006 (in a Briercrest reading group with David Guretzki that sent me on a new path!)

Finished §38 The Command as the Decision of God

Finished §37 The Command as the Claim of God
