This work masterfully unpacks the biblical doctrine of the Covenant of Grace, distinguishing it from the Covenant of Works and illuminating its fulfillment in the person and work of Jesus Christ.
这部作品巧妙地阐述了恩典之约的圣经教义，将其与行为之约区分开来，并阐明其在耶稣基督的位格和工作中的成就。
Petto’s careful handling of Scripture, coupled with his precise theological reasoning, makes this book an invaluable resource for those who desire to grasp the unity of God’s redemptive purposes from Genesis to Revelation.
佩托对圣经的谨慎处理，加上他精确的神学推理，使这本书成为那些渴望把握神从创世记到启示录救赎旨意统一性的人的宝贵资源。
One of the most compelling aspects of Petto’s work is his detailed exploration of the relationship between the Old and New Covenants.
佩托作品最引人注目的方面之一是他对旧约和新约关系的详细探讨。
He addresses difficult questions concerning the Sinai Covenant—whether it was an administration of the Covenant of Grace or bore a legal, conditional character.
他处理关于西奈之约的困难问题——它是否是恩典之约的一个实施，或带有律法的、有条件的性质。
Through his meticulous analysis, Petto demonstrates that the Covenant of Grace, while progressively revealed throughout biblical history, remains fundamentally one in substance, though differing in administration.
通过他细致的分析，佩托证明了恩典之约，虽然在整个圣经历史中逐步启示，但在实质上始终保持根本的统一性，尽管在实施上有所不同。
His exposition clarifies how Christ stands as the Mediator of this covenant, fulfilling its conditions and securing its blessings for His people.
他的阐述阐明了基督如何作为这约的中保，成就其条件并为祂的子民保证其祝福。
This book will appeal to those who cherish Reformed covenant theology and seek to deepen their understanding of God’s unchanging purpose in redemption.
这本书将吸引那些珍视改革宗圣约神学并寻求加深对神在救赎中不变旨意理解的人。
Readers will be drawn in by Petto’s pastoral concern—he does not treat covenant theology as a mere academic exercise but as a doctrine that brings deep assurance and comfort to believers.
读者将被佩托的牧养关怀所吸引——他不把圣约神学当作纯粹的学术练习，而是当作给信徒带来深刻确据和安慰的教义。
He emphasizes the full sufficiency of Christ’s atonement and righteousness, dispelling any notion of salvation by human merit.
他强调基督赎罪和义的完全充足性，消除任何靠人的功德得救的观念。
His treatment of justification, the imputation of Christ’s righteousness, and the necessity of faith is particularly edifying and serves as a firm defense against legalism and antinomianism alike.
他对称义、基督义的归算和信心必要性的处理特别有启发性，并成为对律法主义和反律法主义的坚固防御。
Another compelling feature of The Great Mystery of the Covenant of Grace is the foreword by John Owen, which testifies to the work’s doctrinal soundness and theological depth.
《恩典之约的伟大奥秘》另一个引人注目的特色是约翰·欧文的序言，它见证了这部作品的教义纯正性和神学深度。
If one of the 17th century’s greatest theologians commended Petto’s insights, it is reason enough for serious students of Scripture to take up and read.
如果17世纪最伟大的神学家之一推荐佩托的洞见，这就足以成为认真的圣经学者拿起阅读的理由。
Samuel Petto (c. 1624–1711) was a Puritan minister and theologian known for his covenantal writings and his pastoral labors in England.
撒母耳·佩托（约1624-1711）是一位清教徒牧师和神学家，以其圣约著作和在英格兰的牧养劳作而闻名。
A contemporary of John Owen, Petto’s work on covenant theology was deeply influential in the development of federal theology within Reformed orthodoxy.
作为约翰·欧文的同时代人，佩托在圣约神学方面的工作对改革宗正统派内联邦神学的发展产生了深刻影响。
His writings reflect a robust biblical fidelity, a keen exegetical mind, and a heart concerned with the spiritual well-being of the Church.
他的著作反映了坚固的圣经忠实性、敏锐的释经头脑，以及关心教会属灵福祉的心。
His legacy endures in the theological richness of his writings, which continue to instruct and edify believers centuries after his death.
他的遗产在其著作的神学丰富性中持续存在，在他死后几个世纪仍继续教导和造就信徒。
For those seeking to understand the Covenant of Grace more fully, to see Christ magnified in the unity of God’s redemptive work, and to be strengthened in faith, The Great Mystery of the Covenant of Grace is an essential read.
对于那些寻求更充分理解恩典之约、在神救赎工作的统一性中看见基督被尊大、并在信心中得坚固的人来说，《恩典之约的伟大奥秘》是必读之作。
