In episode 14, Lee and Chris discuss chapter 2 of Meredith Kline's book, By Oath Consigned. In Chapter 2, Kline is still laying the theological foundation for his analysis of the sacraments of circumcision and baptism. This chapter is called "Law Covenant," and it gives the reader some significant insight into some theological themes that remained near and dear to Kline's heart throughout his entire academic career.
