Paul, the Community, and Progressive Sanctification: An Exploration Into Community-Based Transformation Within Pauline Theology
ISBN: 9780820479286 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. What role does the Christian community play in the process of growing in Christian maturity? This book argues that in Pauline theology the redeemed community is a necessary means for the progressive sanctification of the individual believer, an idea that is largely misunderstood in parts of the Western church. It evaluates foundational theological considerations traditionally omitted from sanctification studies and places them within the context of Pauline theology. Included are the missiological nature of holiness, the initiatory character of God, the creation of the new humanity as...

Simon of Cyrene: A Case of Roman Conscription
ISBN: 9780820456867 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In this book, Stephanie Buckhanon Crowder reexamines the role of Simon of Cyrene during the crucifixion as presented in the Gospel of Luke. Engaging in cultural studies as an interpretive base, Crowder maintains that because Simon was forced or conscripted to carry the cross, his actions cannot be interpreted as those of a disciple who voluntarily followed Jesus. Further, since the gospel writer Luke was under duress and could not openly record such activity, he engaged in a rhetoric of subversion in order to protect himself. Luke s literature thus bespeaks of his own socio-cultural and...

Moses and God in Dialogue: Exodus 32-34 in Postbiblical Literature
ISBN: 9780820469058 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In Exodus 32-34, through a series of dialogues, Moses persuades God to spare the Israelites from destruction after they have made and worshipped a golden calf. The significance of this passage was not lost on ancient interpreters. At the heart of their concerns was the relationship between Moses and God, as well as the extent to which the Divine could be swayed by human reason and passion. For some, the idea that God could be moved by human efforts was welcome, providing hope in difficult times. For others, it was alarming; after all, God was not only supposed to be all-powerful, but immune...

From John of Apamea to Mark's Gospel: Two Dialogues with Thomasios: A Hermeneutical Reading of Horáō, Blépō, and Theōréō
ISBN: 9781433126161 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 163 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. From John of Apamea to Mark's Gospel: Two Dialogues with Thomasios: A Hermeneutical Reading of Horao, Blepo, and Theoreo combines two theological fields of investigation. The first is related to the Patristic theology of Eastern Syrian Christianity and the second resides in the field of Biblical theology. The research articulates the two fields, which complement each other through a logic exposition in that the theological conceptions of John of Apamea serve as the hermeneutical reading of the verbs of visual perception in the Markan Gospel.
The first part expounds the problem... From John of Apamea to Mark's Gospel: Two Dialogues with Thomasios: A Hermeneutical Reading of Horao, Blepo, and Theoreo combines two theologic...

Holiness and Community in 2 Cor 6:14-7:1: Paul's View of Communal Holiness in the Corinthian Correspondence
ISBN: 9780820469195 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 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...

ISBN: 9781433102004 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 434 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Whereas many books in this field deal with individual aspects or texts of the study of family laws, Leviticus: The Priestly Laws and Prohibitions from the Perspective of Ancient Near East and Africa examines extensively biblical texts, ancient Near Eastern text, and oral traditions from Africa. Thus, three different cultures converge: the world of the Hebrew Bible, the world of the ancient Near East, and the world of Africa.

Moreover, this book demonstrates explicitly, using examples and a clear step-by-step method to clarify the meanings behind Paul s...

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.

ISBN: 9780820471389 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Wilderness in many parts of the globe is under considerable threat from human development. This has important ramifications not only for fauna and flora but also for human well-being.

Liberation from Empire; Demonic Possession and Exorcism in the Gospel of Mark
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 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...

Rewriting the Feeding of Five Thousand reveals the connection between John and the Synoptics with a focus on John 6.1-15. Statistical analyses establish the percentages of verbal and word order agreement between John 6.1-15 and the Synoptic parallels. An analysis of contextual agreements between the narratives in John and the Synoptics facilitates observing the percentage of agreement between them on a verse-by-verse basis, the average percentage of agreement between them, and the average percentage of agreement between them when Johannine material without parallel in the Synoptics is...

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...

Configurations of Rape in the Hebrew Bible: A Literary Analysis of Three Rape Narratives
ISBN: 9781433101670 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In Configurations of Rape in the Hebrew Bible, Frank M. Yamada explores the compelling similarity among three rape narratives found in the Hebrew Scriptures. These three stories the rape of Dinah (Genesis 34), the rape of an unnamed concubine (Judges 19), and the rape of Tamar, daughter of David (2 Samuel 13) move through the same plot progression: an initial sexual violation of a woman leads to escalating violence among men, resulting in some form of social fragmentation. In this intriguing study, Yamada draws from the disciplines of literary and narrative criticism, feminist biblical...
