How Firm a Foundation: The Dispensations in the Light of the Divine Covenants
ISBN: 9780820469317 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Do covenants or dispensations structure the biblical revelation? The historic conflict between Covenant and Dispensational theology has resulted in a neglect of biblical covenants in Dispensationalism. As a corrective, this book offers a variant of Dispensationalism designated Covenantal Dispensationalism. Analyzing both ancient Near Eastern and biblical covenants, this work clearly demonstrates that the character of each dispensation is the sum of the stipulations of the operative covenants. Therefore, this book concludes that covenants structure the biblical revelation and that resulting...

Beyond Vengeance and Protest: A Reflection on the Macarisms in Revelation
ISBN: 9780820471310 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Beyond Vengeance and Protest takes a fresh look at the Book of Revelation from the point of view of blessing. If John wrote Revelation to tell the Christian communities that he had seen the Lord and to encourage them to persevere, the macarisms underscore his conviction of God s vindication of the righteous who suffer now. With the sevenfold macarisms expressing hope in God s grace, John lays grounds for action by positing the good for which the contrary must be rejected."

Power and Marginality in the Abraham Narrative - Second Edition
ISBN: 9781498251327 / Angielski / Twarda / 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...

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...

Strange Names of God: The Missionary Translation of the Divine Name and the Chinese Responses to Matteo Ricci's «Shangti» in Late Ming China
ISBN: 9780820471303 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. One of the most precarious and daunting tasks for sixteenth-century European missionaries in the cross-cultural mission frontiers was translating the name of -God- (Deus) into the local language. When the Italian Jesuit Matteo Ricci (1552-1610) introduced the Chinese term Shangti as the semantic equivalent of Deus, he made one of the most innovative cross-cultural missionary translations. Ricci s employment of Shangti was neither a simple rewording of a Chinese term nor the use of a loan-word, but was indeed a risk-taking -identification- of the Christian God with the Confucian...

Ezekiel the Priest: A Custodian of Tôrâ
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."

This book is an informed, focused, deep, and creative analysis of the topic of (im)politeness applied to Jesus in Matthew s Gospel, with in-depth conclusions and analysis about the Matthean Jesus (im)politeness. This study utilizes innovative methodological approaches regarding the analysis and interpretation of the subject in Matthew s Gospel, finding similarities with the language and (im)polite engagements of other first-century Greco-Roman characters and the Matthean Jesus in similar contexts.

The Matthean Community and the World: An Analysis of Matthew's Food Exchange
ISBN: 9781433100833 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This study of the Matthean narrative uses the interpretive lens of food exchange to explore the Matthean community s relationship with the wider world. While many studies depict this community as withdrawing from or in conflict with the larger society, James P. Grimshaw s focus on the daily need for food reveals a community that, while distinct, progressively integrates itself into the larger Jewish and Gentile society and the natural world. In addition, this view of community corresponds to the view of a God who actively provides for and relates to all creation. Grimshaw s alternative...

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. It argues through a convergence of three lines of evidence linguistic, historical, and intertextual for a composition of the poetic sections of Exodus 15:1-21 in the mid-twelfth century b.c.e. Courses on the book of Exodus, Hebrew poetry, or intertextuality in the Hebrew Bible will find this text useful."

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...

A Psycho-Spiritual View on the Message of Jesus in the Gospels: Presence and Transformation in Some Logia as a Sign of Mysticism
ISBN: 9781433106583 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 381 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. A Psycho-Spiritual View on the Message of Jesus in the Gospels explores elements of mysticism in the words of Jesus. Four fields are analyzed with the help of two key concepts of mysticism: presence of the divine and transformation of the self. Analyses, semantic and otherwise, reveal alternative understandings on each of the four fields.
Psuche appears as self ( mind-and-heart ) rather than as life, for example, in the Good Shepherd passage (dedicating one s self), or in the saving and losing logia in Mark 8.35 par, calling for transformation.

Has Joab Foiled David?: A Literary Study of the Importance of Joab's Character in Relation to David

Was David a good man ruined by the negative influence of the evil villain Joab or was David himself the villain who cast his dark shadow wrongfully over Joab?

This book provides a wealth of information regarding character studies, a new perspective on David, and a groundbreaking study of Joab. Courses in biblical studies, especially literary or historical, will find this text most helpful."

The Meaning of «Works of the Law» in Galatians and Romans
ISBN: 9780820451190 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 317 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Paul s orientation toward the Law of Moses and the Judaism of his day, and the resulting impact upon his theological thought, have remained perplexing issues in New Testament and specialized Pauline studies. This book examines the meaning of Paul s expression -works of the law- in Galatians and Romans as a means toward resolution of these difficult areas. Robert Keith Rapa suggests that rightly apprehending Paul s perspective on -work-, his use of rhetorical and epistolographical communication mechanisms, and his concept of the place of the Law in the redemptive program of God, leads to a...

Not «Who Is on the Lord's Side?» But «Whose Side Is the Lord On?»: Contesting Claims and Divine Inscrutability in 2 Samuel 16: 5-14
ISBN: 9781433119798 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 155 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Second Samuel 16:5 14 is an important text for defining the character of both King David and Yahweh, the God of Israel. In this scene, the points of view of the various speakers battle for control of the narrative, attempting in turn to align their perspective with some aspect of what has been revealed earlier about Yahweh in the larger biblical story. Shimei, relative of the dead King Saul, paints David as a murderer and under a divine curse. Shimei presents himself as God s instrument of truth and vengeance. Abishai, David s nephew, first paints Shimei as a seditionist worthy of death, and...

Legal Friction: Law, Narrative, and Identity Politics in Biblical Israel

Legal Friction: Law, Narrative, and Identity Politics in Biblical Israel tracks the mystery of narratives in the Hebrew Bible and their allusions to Sinai laws by highlighting intertextual allusions created by verbal resonances. While the second and the third parts of the volume illustrate allusions to Sinai narratives made by some narratives occurring in the post-Sinaitic era, twenty-three Genesis narratives are analyzed to show that the protagonists were bound by Sinai Laws before God supposedly gave them to Moses, anticipating the Book of Jubilees. Legal Friction suggests...
