Описание: The Old Testament tells the story of a particular nation, ancient Israel, from its origins to its collapse in the face of foreign invaders. But what sort of story is this? How does it fit in with the findings of archaeological explorations of ancient Syro-Palestine? Joshua to Kings picks up the two aspects of the story told in the books from Joshua to 2 Kings, that of an actual historical society and that of a literary presentation of a nation, told from a religious perspective. By exploring the contents of these books the student is led into the use of basic tools for biblical study, such as historical criticism, narrative criticism and ideological criticism, in order to engage in a structured manner with the task of reading and interpreting biblical texts in the modern world. For this third edition the text has been revised and updated to take into account the changes and shifts in scholarship. Reading lists and bibliographies have been comprehensively revised.

Описание: This powerful collection of essays focuses on the representation of God in the Book of Ezekiel. With topics spanning across projections of God, through to the implications of these creations, the question of the divine presence in Ezekiel is explored. Madhavi Nevader analyses Divine Sovereignty and its relation to creation, while Dexter E. Callender Jnr and Ellen van Wolde route their studies in the image of God, as generated by the character of Ezekiel. The assumption of the title is then inverted, as Stephen L. Cook writes on ‘The God that the Temple Blueprint Creates’, which is taken to its other extreme by Marvin A. Sweeney in his chapter on ‘The Ezekiel that God Creates’, and finds a nice reconciliation in Daniel I. Block’s chapter, ‘The God Ezekiel Wants Us to Meet.’ Finally, two essays from Christian biblical scholar Nathan MacDonald and Jewish biblical scholar, Rimon Kasher, offer a reflection on the essays about Ezekiel and his God.

Описание:
This volume continues the study of intertextuality in the 'Wisdom Literature' initiated in Reading Job Intertextually (Dell and Kynes, T&T Clark, 2012). Like that book, Reading Ecclesiastes Intertextually provides the first comprehensive treatment of intertextuality in this wisdom text. Articles address intertextual resonances between Ecclesiastes and texts across the Hebrew canon, along with texts throughout history, from Greek classical literature to the New Testament, Jewish and Christian interpretation, and existential and Modern philosophy.
As a multi-authored volume that gathers together scholars with expertise on this diverse array of texts, this collection provides exegetical insight that exceeds any similar attempt by a single author. The contributors have been encouraged to pursue the intertextual approach that best suits their topic, thereby offering readers a valuable collection of intertextual case studies addressing a single text.

Описание: This Book is paramount for Pastors and Theologians because of the confusion over Covenants and the Old & New Testaments and the Law. The relationship of Gentile Christians to "Mosaic Covenant" laws found in the Old Testament was the first controversy that threatened to split the infant Church. The Book of Acts records that the controversy became so heated that the Apostles had to hold an emergency meeting to debate the issues and give their ruling. The Epistle to Galatians reveals that the issues were not a mere "tempest in a teapot," but actually involved the nature of the Gospel itself. Dr. Morey cuts the Gordian knots and explains the relationship between the Covenants and the Testaments and examines Dispensationalism, Covenant Theology and Dominion Theology. He answers such questions such as "What about food laws under the Mosaic Covenant?" "Is the Sabbath for today?" Recommendations for Book "One of the most important works ever written in the history of the American Dispensationalism vs. Covenant Theology debate. Dr. Morey's groundbreaking work scholastically clarifies the nature and number of the covenants, dispensations, etc. Every pastor and every Bible student should read this " Dr. Brian James Shanley, President Of Sovereign Grace Institute Of Apologetics "Dr. Morey's vast knowledge of the languages, texts, and times of both the Old and New Testaments come together to explain precisely how and in what ways they relate to each other. He has written a masterpiece for those who want to increase their knowledge and understanding of Scripture. His discussion of the nature and number of the covenants and the dispensations, the sabbath, the distinction between the covenants and the testaments, the law and the Torah, etc. are absolutely amazing. I enjoyed reading and learning from this book. Thank you, Dr. Morey, for another great book that very Bible student and pastor should read." Rev. Dr. Charles H. Christopher (B.A., M.Div., D.M.) "Why is the book entitled 'How the Old and New Testaments Relate to Each Other' by Dr. Morey so important to the Evangelical Church, especially Sabbatarians? Why is there so much confusion about the Old Testament? Dr. Morey clears up the misunderstandings by explaining the difference between the Old and New Testaments (a literary document) and 'Covenants' (agreements made in time and space). Dr. Morey reveals that that are four 'Covenants' in the Old Testament: 1. The Noahic Covenant; 2. The Abrahamic Covenant; 3. The Mosaic Covenant; and 4. The New Covenant. Only the 'Mosaic Covenant' was defective and obsolete and replaced by the 'New Covenant' Because of the misunderstanding of equating the 'Old Testament' with the 'Old Covenant', this has led many Protestant/Evangelical churches and cults such as Herbert Armstrong's Worldwide Church of God adhering to food, civil and ceremonial laws (Sabbath keeping, Israel's festivals, etc.) in the 'Mosaic Covenant' and thinking that the 'New Covenant' is a polished version of the 'Mosaic Covenant'." Didymus, President New Jersey Institute for the Advancement of Truth (NJIAT) Dr. Robert A. Morey, (Ph.D., DLitt et Phil, D.Min., D.D.) Faith Defenders http: //faithdefenders.com Dr. Robert A. Morey is internationally respected as one of the best theologians and apologists in the 21st Century. He is the author of over 60 books. Dr. Morey's educational background includes Classical Greek as well as Koine Greek, Hebrew, philosophy, "Jewish" and "Rabbinic writings" such as the Midrash, Mishnah, Talmuds, Dead Sea Scrolls, and Apocalyptic literature. It should be noted that Dr. Robert A. Morey as a young prot g with an IQ of 185 was selected by Yale University in the tenth grade of high school to become part of the School Mathematics Study Group (SMSG).
Описание: This book offers a fresh reading about the purpose for which Hebrews was written. In this book Whitlark argues that Hebrews engages both the negative pressures (persecution) and positive attractions (honor/prosperity) of its audience’s Roman imperial context. Consequently, the audience of Hebrews appears to be in danger of defecting to the pagan imperial context. Due to the imperial nature of these pressures, Hebrews obliquely critiques the imperial script according to the rhetorical expectations in the first-century Mediterranean world—namely, through the use of figured speech. This critique is the primary focus of Whitlark's project. Whitlark examines Hebrews’s figured response to the imperial hopes boasted by Rome along with Rome’s claim to eternal rule, to the power of life and death, and to be led by the true, victorious ruler. Whitlark also makes a case for discerning Hebrews’s response to the challenges of Flavian triumph. Whitlark concludes his study by suggesting that Hebrews functions much like Revelation, that is, to resist the draw of the Christians' Roman imperial context. This is done, in part, by providing a covert opposition to Roman imperial discourse. He also offers evaluation of relapse theories for Hebrews, of Hebrews’s place among early Christian martyrdom, and of the nature of the resistance that Hebrews promotes.

Описание: Robert Lewis examines Paul’s use of the phrase “Spirit of Adoption” in Romans 8:12-17 against the background of its Roman Imperial context in order to shed light on interpretation of Paul's Letter to the Romans. Whereas other scholars have explored what Paul may have meant when he uses the term “adoption” Lewis instead explores the reasons behind Paul's coupling of it with the term “spirit”. Having examined theories for a possible Jewish antecedent for Paul’s use of this phrase, and found them less than persuasive, Lewis unlocks the data within the term's Roman Imperial context that significantly clarifies what Paul means when he uses the phrase “Spirit of adoption". Lewis shows that when Paul wrote his letter to the Romans, adoption had become a feature of Imperial succession. Roman religion gave a great deal of prominence to the Roman family spirit - the genius. The Emperor’s genius became identified as a deity in Roman religion and its veneration was widespread in Rome as well as the provinces. When Romans 8.12-17 is read against this background, a very different kind of exegetical picture emerges.

Описание: Characters in the Second Gospel are analysed and an in-depth look at different approaches currently employed by scholars working with literary and reader-oriented methods of analysis is provided. The first section consists of essays on method/theory, and the second consists of seven exegetical character studies using a literary or reader-oriented method. All contributors work from a literary, narrative-critical, reader-oriented, or related methodology. The book summarizes the state of the discussion and examines obstacles to arriving at a comprehensive theory of character in the Second Gospel. Specific contributions include analyses of the representation of women, God, Jesus, Satan, Gentiles, and the Roman authorities of Mark's Gospel. This work is both an exploration of theories of character, and a study in the application of those theories.
