Ancient Near Eastern Literature and the Hebrew Scriptures about the Fatherhood of God
ISBN: 9780820471280 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Ancient Near Eastern Literature and the Hebrew Scriptures About the Fatherhood of God discusses some of the main -father-god- concepts of the people of the Ancient Near East, then examines the eighteen occurrences of God s fatherhood specifically mentioned in Hebrew Scripture. From these sources, the book develops a theology of God s fatherhood that honors both ancient and modern scrutiny. Although many studies have explored the subject of the fatherhood of God mostly from the perspective of nonbiblical disciplines, and through the lens of Greco-Roman mythology this book takes into...

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...

Matthew's Gospel and Judaism in the Late First Century C.E.: The Evidence from Matthew's Chapter on Parables (Matthew 13:1-52)
ISBN: 9780820479385 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 277 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Following a thorough examination of the structure, language, and argument of Matthew s discourse on parables, Anthony O. Ewherido underscores its primary relevance to the ongoing discussion on the social context of Matthew s Gospel. The convincing analysis of the textual evidence and study of some social and historical trends in Christianity and Judaism in the post-70 C.E. era inform Ewherido s conclusion that at the time the Gospel was written to its predominantly Jewish-Christian community, that community had parted ways with Judaism and stood at an ideologically irreconcilable distance...

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...

«Resolviendo»: Narratives of Survival in the Hebrew Bible and in Cuba Today
ISBN: 9781433107047 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 119 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The story of Rahab (Joshua 2) has traditionally been interpreted as the account of a foreign woman and prostitute who changes the course of her life when she converts to Yahweh. In return for her faithful act of saving the spies sent by Joshua to search the land of Canaan, Rahab and her family obtain salvation once her city of Jericho is destroyed. The story of Jael (Judges 4:17-23) has commonly been read as Jael s violent act of killing Sisera, King Jabin s commander in chief, with a tent peg to his temple while he was asleep. Jael is perceived as someone who fails to fulfill the hospitality...

Rereading the «Shepherd Discourse»: Restoring the Integrity of John 9:39-10:21
ISBN: 9781433101908 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 217 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The history of scholarship narrates a complicated past for the interpretation of the -Shepherd Discourse- in the Fourth Gospel. Both the internal and contextual integrity of John 9:39-10:21 have been compromised by a misapplied analogy dividing the passage into a parable and explanation structure, and by reading models that favor historical approaches. As a result, the images and figures encountered in the discourse have not been allowed their full imaginative impact and the tendency is to look outside the Gospel for their referents and explanations. The meaning of the -Shepherd Discourse-...

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... |

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...

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 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...

The Christian Gospel and Its Jewish Roots: A Redaction-Critical Study of Mark 2:21-22 in Context
ISBN: 9781433107023 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 189 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The Christian Gospel and Its Jewish Roots goes against the tendency to interpret Scripture in ways that separate Christianity and Judaism. Through a redaction-critical analysis of the two sayings on the -new- and the -old- (Mark 2:21-22), the author argues that Mark does not leave his readers with a complete break between Jesus and his Jewish heritage. Rather, the Evangelist opens a ray of hope that the gospel and its Jewish soil are ultimately reconcilable, not fatally antagonistic. With thorough and incisive study, this work reaches the conclusion that standing at the literary center...

This book deals with the identity of the Torah that Yahweh promised he would write on the hearts of New Covenant participants, as prophesied in Jeremiah 31:33 and understood later in New Testament times by Paul.

Pastors and virtually all Christians interested in reading or researching Paul and the subject of Gospel/law controversy in biblical studies will benefit from it.

Moving Beyond Symbol and Myth; Understanding the Kingship of God of the Hebrew Bible Through Metaphor
ISBN: 9780820486611 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. For hundreds of years, scholars have debated the meaning of Jesus' central theological term, the 'kingdom of God'. Most of the argument has focused on its assumed eschatological connotations and Jesus' adherence or deviation from these ideas. Within the North American context, the debate is dominated by the work of Norman Perrin, whose classification of the kingdom of God as a myth-evoking symbol remains one of the fundamental assumptions of scholarship. According to Perrin, Jesus' understanding of the kingdom of God is founded upon the myth of God acting as king on behalf of Israel as...

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.

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...

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...

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...
