Power and Marginality in the Abraham Narrative - Second Edition
ISBN: 9781556358746 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Description: Who will speak for Hagar or Isaac or Sarah or the daughters of Lot? With an interpretive trajectory that moves from the margin to the center, this book gives voice to the marginalized and voiceless in the Abraham Narratives. Further, this approach is based on the premise that there is a continuum of power in the various characters in these narratives and that the most powerful are those who are lodged at the center while those with the least power are on the margin or beyond. The intent of this study is to direct and perhaps re-direct our attention to the text and with fresh eyes...

Why Not Her?: A Form and Literary-Critical Interpretation of the Named and Unnamed Women in the Elijah and Elisha Narratives
ISBN: 9781433130175 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 291 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In this book, Hye Kyung Park examines the functions and roles of the women who appear in the Elijah and Elisha narratives. The named and unnamed female characters in the Elijah and Elisha cycles frequently drive the plot of these narratives, giving a voice to important theological, historical, and social concerns that are otherwise overlooked. Consequently, this book elaborates upon the critical meaning of women s voices through a close interpretation of the roles and functions attributed to women in 1 Kings 17:8 24; 2 Kings 4:8 37, 5, and 8:1 6. In this book, Hye Kyung Park examines the functions and roles of the women who appear in the Elijah and Elisha narratives. The named and unnamed fe... |

Holiness and Community in 2 Cor 6:14-7:1: Paul's View of Communal Holiness in the Corinthian Correspondence
ISBN: 9780820455570 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book examines 2 Cor 6:14-7:1 and argues that its theological message is communal holiness. It culminates in an attempt to posit a Pauline theology of corporate sanctification in the Corinthian correspondence. Paul s view of sanctification, it is argued, should be seen as multifaceted: relational, communal, ethical, and mission-oriented. Thus, a coherent picture of Pauline teaching on holiness in the Corinthian correspondence emerges from this book. For Paul, the focus of God s redemptive activity is, primarily, the community and not the individual. Paul s view on holiness has to do with...

Tracing the Evidence: Dinah in Post-Hebrew Bible Literature
ISBN: 9780820488530 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 223 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Tracing the Evidence: Dinah in Post-Hebrew Bible Literature examines the post-biblical literary developments of Dinah, the daughter of Leah and Jacob. According to Genesis 34, Dinah was sexually violated by Shechem; however, there are gaps in the biblical narrative and little written about what happened to her after the fateful time. Tracing the Evidence considers how post-Hebrew Bible traditions have filled in some of those gaps. Some traditions give more information about her day-to-day life, how old she was when Shechem met her, and various details about her subsequent...

The Song of the Sea: The Date of Composition and Influence of Exodus 15:1-21 offers a thorough exegetical study of the Song and its intertextual influence across the Hebrew Bible.

ISBN: 9781433117497 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Liberation from Empire investigates the phenomenon of demonic possession and exorcism in the Gospel of Mark. The Marcan narrator writes from an anti-imperialistic point of view with allusions to, yet never directly addressing, the Roman Empire. In his baptism, Jesus was authorized by God and empowered by the Holy Spirit to wage cosmic war with Satan. In Jesus first engagement, his testing in the wilderness, Jesus bound the strong one, Satan. Jesus explains this encounter in the Beelzebul controversy. Jesus ministry continues an on-going battle with Satan, binding the strong one s...

ISBN: 9780820474250 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 191 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. As one of the most significant figures in ancient Israel, the priest had numerous responsibilities, the most important of which was the exposition of the Mosaic Tora. The ministry of Ezekiel, a prophetic priest, offers a glimpse of how one priest carried out his duties as a custodian of Tora. Ezekiel the Priest provides the possibility of a deeper understanding of the pastoral ministry of priests as teachers of God s word during Old Testament times through the example of one ancient Israelite priest."

God as an Absent Character in Biblical Hebrew Narrative: A Literary-Theoretical Study
ISBN: 9780820478289 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Although the Hebrew Bible as a whole is centered on God and God s relations with Israel, the character of God appears in most biblical stories only indirectly. How are modern readers to make sense of this paradox? God as an Absent Character in Biblical Hebrew Narrative establishes a set of literary methods that both academic and non-academic readers can use to understand the character of God, who is the single most important character in Hebrew Bible narrative and, strangely, absent from the majority of it."

Indian Poetics (Kāvya Śāstra) and Narratology Towards the Appreciation of Biblical Narrative
ISBN: 9781433132957 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Though the biblical and the Indian literary traditions had independent origin and growth in terms of spatial and cultural milieux, there are literary landscapes of confluence where the literary fabrics of their collective wisdom are interwoven. Both narrative traditions have rich oral and folk prehistoric traditions in their records and this attribute provides a substratum where their narrative patterns and paradigms can find a common ground. A Hebraic reading of the Bible does not exhaust the meaning of the biblical texts; on the other hand, an Indian reading of the Bible could bring more...

Re-Presenting the Johannine Community: A Postcolonial Perspective
ISBN: 9780820497334 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Re-Presenting the Johannine Community: A Postcolonial Perspective explores the characterization of the Johannine community in the Farewell Discourse of the Fourth Gospel from a postcolonial perspective. The community is scrutinized with the lens of an integrated literary-rhetorical and ideological-postcolonial approach. The disciples emerge as both the -Self-, insofar as they resist an imperial reality represented by the -world-, and the -Other-, with respect to Jesus and the Father. As such, far from immutable and bland, the Johannine community is portrayed as chameleonic and engaged...

Andrew of Bethsaida and the Johannine Circle; The Muratorian Tradition and the Gospel Text
ISBN: 9781433120251 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 177 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book is a reading of the text of the Gospel of John in light of a tradition of Johannine authorship represented by the Muratorian Fragment, Papias of Hierapolis, and the Anti-Marcionite Prologue, all which are taken to reflect the influence of a common tradition represented by Jerome, Clement of Alexandria, and Victorinus of Pettau. Taken together these suggest that the Gospel of John was the work of the late first- or early second-century John the Presbyter who mediated the tradition of a distinctive group of Johannine disciples among whom Andrew was most important.

The So-Called Mixed Text: An Examination of the Non-Alexandrian and Non-Byzantine Text-Type in the Catholic Epistles
ISBN: 9781433107559 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In recent years, a number of scholars have identified a text-type in six of the books of the Catholic Epistles that they have called -mixed.- The So-Called Mixed Text: An Examination of the Non-Alexandrian and Non-Byzantine Text-Type in the Catholic Epistles is concerned with a comprehensive identification and evaluation of this so-called mixed text-type. This mixed category, if supported by empirical investigation to be more original than the Alexandrian and Byzantine texts, could necessitate the re-evaluation of these established text-types and also the re-evaluation of the...

ISBN: 9781556352928 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 138 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Description: The themes of these stories are profoundly human themes, capturing the persistent interaction between God and humankind. These narratives invite us to witness the manner in which God enters human community in all of its complexities, struggles, challenges, fears, and ultimately hope. As the narratives unfold, not only is it clear that God will not be restricted by societal and cultural conventions, but the human journey will be generated by faith and doubt, fear and hope, promise and fulfillment. Hemchand Gossai not only explores the various themes within a variety of texts, but...

The Dreams of Matthew 1: 18-2:23; Tradition, Form, and Theological Investigation
ISBN: 9781433116254 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The Dreams of Matthew 1:18-2:23: Tradition, Form, and Theological Investigation critically examines the five dream passages of Matthew 1:18-2:23 to demonstrate that Matthew employed dream narratives to defend allegations concerning Jesus birth and to provide etiological reasons both for why Jesus went to Egypt and how Jesus happened to live in Nazareth. A diachronic survey of dream records in the Ancient Near Eastern, Egyptian, Jewish, Greco-Roman, and Second Temple writings reveals that dream narratives fall into two major categories: message dreams and symbolic dreams. Every dream...
