if you guys got any questions about the Bible, LMK and i can look them up, doing a course now, and it is killing me (time-intensive), but it explains alot.
however, they do tend to use BIG WORDs:

"(2) Given the relationship of Urzeit and Endzeit within the com-positional
seams of the Pentateuch, it is reasonable to expect to find
the important eschatological themes of the poetic texts also in Genesis
1-11. Where this seems to me to be of particular importance is in
the prominence given in the poetic texts to the idea of an eschatological
kingdom. This suggests that the theme of the Kingdom of God
may also be at work in Genesis 1-11. It is from such a perspective that,
I believe, we can begin to feel some exegetical ground under our feet
in the attempt to link the OT and NT into a single Biblical Theology.
It is an exegesis that, as Eichrodt once lamented, is not "exhausted by
a bare historical connection, such as might afford material for the historian's
examination but no more."58 What I think our exegesis suggests
is that the canonical Pentateuch already appears to be in "the
unique spiritual realm of the NT" in which, to quote Eichrodt again,
there is a "fundamental identity" (eine grundlegende Wesenseigent??mlichkeit)
between the NT and OT. For, to quote Eichrodt one more
time, "that which binds together indivisibly the two realms of the
Old and New Testaments . . . is the irruption of the Kingship of God
into this world and its establishment here."
