Sinossi

A highly accessible and theologically astute exposition of the story of the reign of King David, emphasising the themes of power and repentance. “The Spirit of the Lord speaks through me, His word is upon my tongue” – 2 Samuel 23.2 The author of Walking the Walk now tells the second half of the story of David, from the moment he becomes king of ‘all Israel’ to his death. Wilcox offers his readers an inspiring and timely exposition, combining as it does a subtle literary story with a robust theological analysis. More than just a bible commentary, Talking the Talk is also a populist reading aimed at a theologically untrained audience, approaching the narrative as a drama, consisting of acts and episodes divided into scenes. Addressed primarily to the contemporary western church, the book focuses attention on David’s capacity for repentance.
