Probably either Horton on covenant theology, or Hart's Lost Soul.  &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;As for your 20th century list, that's not bad.  You're right on Ridderbos on Paul.  I'd also agree with Muller and Machen, and maybe Berkhof, too.  I don't think I'd put Cranfield on the list, or Hendriksen.  Not that those aren't very fine books, but I don't see how they'd make it into the top 10.  &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Interesting thing with Beale: I almost put him on the 21st century list with the caveat that he was close enough to count.  His is an excellent (though massive) commentary.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;STefan</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20749386/2119851725887683680/comments/default/4438458616952880736'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20749386/2119851725887683680/comments/default/4438458616952880736'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://confessionalreformedbaptist.blogspot.com/2008/03/top-ten-books-of-21st-century.html?showComment=1205736420000#c4438458616952880736' title=''/><author><name>Stefan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00678256944843625087</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='08670989535242006886'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://confessionalreformedbaptist.blogspot.com/2008/03/top-ten-books-of-21st-century.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20749386.post-2119851725887683680' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20749386/posts/default/2119851725887683680' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20749386.post-8242586745674526559</id><published>2008-03-16T18:24:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T18:24:00.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>I'm surprised you don't have the Selected Shorter ...</title><content type='html'>I'm surprised you don't have the Selected Shorter Writings of Machen up there.  Was it close to your top 10?  My top 10 of the 20th century?  This is just a quick and easy list, but I wouldn't be too ashamed of it as a final draught.  (1) Paul: An Outline of His Theology by Ridderbos; (2) Berkhof's Systematic Theology; (3) Vos's Bibclial Theology; (4) Hendriksen's More than Conquerors; (5) C.E.B. Cranfield's 2 volume commentary on Romans; (6) Machen's Christianity and Liberalism; (7)Coming of the Kingdom by Ridderbos; (8) Commentary on Revelation (NIGTC) by G.K. Beale (barely... it's 1999); (9) Dictionary of Latin and Greek Theological Terms by Muller; and (10) Kingdom Prologue by Kline.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20749386/2119851725887683680/comments/default/8242586745674526559'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20749386/2119851725887683680/comments/default/8242586745674526559'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://confessionalreformedbaptist.blogspot.com/2008/03/top-ten-books-of-21st-century.html?showComment=1205717040000#c8242586745674526559' title=''/><author><name>Bradford</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02162379202540507960</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://confessionalreformedbaptist.blogspot.com/2008/03/top-ten-books-of-21st-century.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20749386.post-2119851725887683680' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20749386/posts/default/2119851725887683680' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20749386.post-4807915063862574399</id><published>2008-03-16T13:10:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T13:10:00.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>As for the top 10 of the 20th century, I'm not sur...</title><content type='html'>As for the top 10 of the 20th century, I'm not sure I have enough time to widdle down 100 years worth of books.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Just off the top of my head I'd have to include Murray's Redemption Accomplished and Applied, Vos's Biblical Theology and Pauline Eschatology, something by Kline (Kingdom Prologue or Structure of Biblical Authority).
