YHWH Is There

“Grumbles’s work is a comprehensive study of a neglected section of the Old Testament. Definitely worth reading carefully.”


—Iain M. Duguid, Westminster Theological Seminary





“The heart of God’s covenant dealings with humanity—the goal of both creation and redemption—is the promise that he will dwell among his people. The temple vision in Ezekiel 40–48, which contributes significantly to this central theme in biblical theology, has been largely neglected in scholarship, a gap addressed by YHWH Is There. Grounded in sound methodology, judicial assessment of competing views, and careful exegesis, Grumbles has written a solid guide for understanding the temple vision of Ezekiel as typological and eschatological, gesturing toward a greater fulfillment—as developed in the New Testament. YHWH Is There offers not only a solid grasp of Ezekiel’s prophecy, but opens a window to the panorama of redemptive history and its dawning glory, when YHWH will bring his people to himself forever to dwell with him on his holy mountain.”


—L. Michael Morales, Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary





“YHWH Is There will prove to be an important work for two reasons. First, Grumbles has presented a viable understanding of the temple vision of Ezekiel that is grounded in a careful exegesis of the text, and which is informed by a holistic biblical theology. Second, he has provided a needed nuance to our understanding of typology in the Old and New Testaments, hopefully bearing fruit in many other areas of the Old Testament.”
