Yes, I have read it, and reread it. It's not the sort of book I'd recommend for people who are seeking to understand biblical theology in the "Vos / Goldsworthy" vein. Owen didn't give it the title "Biblical Theology" it was the the publishing house.
The book is very dense and difficult, and not for the faint-hearted! I personally don't think it's Owen at his best.
One other excellent book that is a simple and clear is Tim Chester,
Creation to New Creation.
