Scripture reveals that God has various attributes. One of the attributes that Scripture frequently refers to is God's righteousness. The attribute of God's righteousness enjoys a lot of scholarly attention in systematic theologies. Fewer studies, however, are devoted to investigating God's righteousness from a Biblical Theological perspective. This is exactly what this publication does: it provides a number of Biblical Theological investigations into the attribute of God's righteousness by investigating specific verses, chapters, and corpora from Scripture, and indicates how these portray God's righteousness as part of the developing, unfolding, and progressive storyline of the text. This includes research on topics that have not been adequately explored in the past. The chapters contained in this volume are written by Old and New Testament scholars, and the target audience is fellow Old and New Testament scholars and scholars interested in God's attributes.
