ISBN: 9780826416124 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The women in Jesus' life are a raucous and rowdy bunch, including "riotous" foremothers, "loose women," and "distressed daughters of Israel." Reading these new ways of interpreting women in the Gospels, male New Testament scholars have discovered liberating perspectives.

Scott Spencer, a virtuoso young New Testament scholar,... The women in Jesus' life are a raucous and rowdy bunch, including "riotous" foremothers, "loose women," and "distressed daughters of Israel."

ISBN: 9780802867629 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Engaging feminist hermeneutics and philosophy in addition to more traditional methods of biblical study, Salty Wives, Spirited Mothers, and Savvy Widows demonstrates and celebrates the remarkable capability and ingenuity of several women in the Gospel of Luke. While recent studies have exposed women's limited opportunities for ministry in Luke, Scott Spencer pulls the pendulum back from a negative feminist-critical pole toward a more constructive center.
Granting that Luke sends somewhat -mixed messages- about women's work and status as Jesus' disciples, Spencer analyzes such... Engaging feminist hermeneutics and philosophy in addition to more traditional methods of biblical study, Salty Wives, Spirited Mothers, and Savvy W...

Journeying Through Acts: A Literary-Cultural Reading
ISBN: 9780801047763 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Journeying through Acts explores the literary and cultural aspects of Acts and offers a fresh reading of this dramatic volume. Acts is unique in the New Testament canon in part because it is not a gospel or a Pauline letter. It presents a dynamic story of the spread of the Christian gospel from Jerusalem to Rome. The gospel was propelled by the earliest followers of the risen and ascended Jesus, empowered by the Holy Spirit, who is arguably the chief protagonist in the narrative. Spencer's reading offers a traveler's guide through the book of Acts. He charts narrative...

Acts
ISBN: 9781850756736 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This reading offers a traveller's guide through the book of Acts, charting both narrative features (plot development, character building and shifting points of view) and cultural scenarios informing the story (honor-shame contests, patron-client relations and purity-pollution boundaries). Within this 'literary-cultural' framework, Spencer undertakes to map the temporal, spatial and social settings of each segment of the Acts journey. While often detecting internal repetitive patterns along the way as well as comparative links with the preceding Lukan gospel and Jewish scriptures, this reading...
