First Converts: Rich Pagan Women and the Rhetoric of Mission in Early Judaism and Christianity
ISBN: 9780804735926 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. It has often been said that rich pagan women, much more so than men, were attracted both to early Judaism and Christianity. This book provides a new reading of sources from which this truism springs, focusing on two texts from the turn of the first century, Josephus's Antiquities and Luke's Acts. The book studies representation, analyzing the repeated portrayal of rich women as aiding and/or converting to early Judaism in its various forms. It also shows how these sources can be used in reconstructing women's history, thus engaging current feminist debates about the relationship...

Perfect Martyr: The Stoning of Stephen and the Construction of Christian Identity
ISBN: 9780199924653 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Recent studies have examined martyrdom as a means of constructing Christian identity, but until now none has focused on Stephen, the first Christian martyr. For the author of Luke-Acts, the stoning of Stephen-- even more than the death of Jesus-- underscores the perfidy of non-believing Jews, the extravagant mercy of Christians, and the inevitable rift that will develop between these two social groups. Stephen's dying prayer that his persecutors be forgiven-the prayer for which he is hailed in Christian tradition as the "perfect martyr" plays a crucial role in drawing an unprecedented...

Violence in the New Testament: Jesus Followers and Other Jews Under Empire
ISBN: 9780567025005 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. While much work has been done on the role of Jews in the crucifixion of Jesus in post-Holocaust biblical scholarship, the question of violence in subsequent community formation remains largely unexamined. New Testament passages suggesting that early Christ-believers were violently persecuted--the "stone throwing" passages from John, the "persecuted from town to town" passages in Matthew, the stoning of Stephen in Acts, Paul's hardship catalogue in II Corinthians, etc.-- are frequently read positivistically as windows onto first century persecution; at the other extreme, they are sometimes...

Walk in the Ways of Wisdom: Essay in Honor of Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza
ISBN: 9781563384066 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) When she published In Memory of Her: A Feminist Theological Reconstruction of Christian Origins in 1983, Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza revolutionized the world of New Testament studies. She offered in that book a method for interpreting early Christian history that recovers the role of women in pre-Pauline Christian communities. She then painted a portrait of the early Christian ekklesia of women as a point of departure for a feminist biblical spirituality. Later works engaged subjects such as hermeneutics, the book of Revelation, and rhetoric and ethics.

The Acts of the Apostles: An Introduction and Study Guide: Taming the Tongues of Fire
ISBN: 9780567671233 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The book of Acts opens with the dramatic story of tongues of flame descending upon believers at Pentecost and the prophecy of an egalitarian dispensation of the Spirit being fulfilled. Yet, as the narrative unfolds, we become aware of a tension between the socially egalitarian promise of the Pentecost story and the author's underlying concern to provide reassurance for his elite patron Theophilus that Jesus followers do not disturb the existing social order. In this guide, Acts is read as a struggle to tame the tongues of fire. Acts mutes the egalitarian promise of the Spirit through...
