Download or read book Wisdom's Feast written by Barbara E. Reid and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Woman Wisdom in Proverbs 9 invites any who want to learn her ways to come and eat at her table—an image for the rich and satisfying teaching that she offers. In this book Barbara Reid invites readers to this feast, drawing on women's wisdom to offer fresh new interpretations of biblical texts in a way that promotes equal dignity and value for women and men alike. Reid begins by presenting feminist methods of biblical interpretation and explaining why they are important, giving attention not only to gender perspectives but also to race, class, and culture as determinative factors in how one understands the biblical text. She then presents fresh, readable feminist interpretations of selected Old and New Testament texts. Each chapter concludes with discussion questions for group or personal use. Making feminist interpretation of Scripture understandable, compelling, and usable, Wisdom's Feastwill be valuable to any readers hungry to learn from the rich insights of feminist biblical scholars.
Book Synopsis The Riches of Divine Wisdom by : David Gooding
Download or read book The Riches of Divine Wisdom written by David Gooding and published by Myrtlefield House. This book was released on with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wisdom of God is revealed in both Old and New Testaments, but it is impossible to appreciate that wisdom fully if the two are read in isolation. Sometimes the New Testament quotes the Old as authoritative. Sometimes it cancels things that the Old says. At other times it indicates that the Old was a type that illustrates New Testament doctrine. How are we to understand and apply its teaching? Is the New Testament being arbitrary when it tells us how to understand the Old, or do its careful interpretations show us how the Old was meant to be understood? Could it be that the New Testament’s many different ways of using some of its passages provide us with guidance for reading, studying and applying the whole of the Old Testament? Drawing upon many years of biblical research and teaching, Professor Gooding addresses these issues by expounding key New Testament passages that use the Old Testament. First he examines the importance of the general relationship of the two testaments. He then considers five major thought categories of the New Testament’s interpretation that encompass the many insights that it employs as tools for harvesting the wealth of the Old. Finally he formulates guidelines for interpreting Old Testament narrative and illustrates them from three familiar passages. Taken together these insights provide invaluable help for appreciating the richness of God’s multifaceted wisdom, which has come down to us as the revenue of all the ages.
Book Synopsis Womanist Midrash by : Wilda C. Gafney
Download or read book Womanist Midrash written by Wilda C. Gafney and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Womanist Midrash is an in-depth and creative exploration of the well- and lesser-known women of the Hebrew Scriptures. Using her own translations, Gafney offers a midrashic interpretation of the biblical text that is rooted in the African American preaching tradition to tell the stories of a variety of female characters, many of whom are often overlooked and nameless. Gafney employs a solid understanding of womanist and feminist approaches to biblical interpretation and the sociohistorical culture of the ancient Near East. This unique and imaginative work is grounded in serious scholarship and will expand conversations about feminist and womanist biblical interpretation.

Book Synopsis Feasting at Wisdom's Table by : Joseph W. Cowan
Download or read book Feasting at Wisdom's Table written by Joseph W. Cowan and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-11-22 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you know the secret to access the most important thing a human being can possess? It cannot be purchased with gold or silver in a shop or department store or online. It is not found in the university or any other school established by mankind. It’s origin is not in the world of politics or government or in any human institution. It truly is a rare commodity among the people of the earth. It is where freedom, life, love, hope, faith, purity, truth, goodness, and peace abounds. Do you know about this greatest of all possessions? Do you know what it is? Wisdom leads you to it. Wisdom shows you where it is. Wisdom knows it. Are you listening to wisdom? She cries out daily to the children of mankind, and invites us to spend some time with her. She has a magnificent table set, and invites us to dine with her. She has something for us to discover. It is holy, and like His Name, it is incomprehensible. It is deeply personal and richly intimate. It gives substantial meaning to our existence.. It is our only salvation. It is an authentic relationship with the Personal God, who made the universe. Intimacy with the living God is what this book is about. It’s what Proverbs is about. Come to dinner and partake.
Book Synopsis Divine Wisdom by : Jeremiah Spencer Forson
Download or read book Divine Wisdom written by Jeremiah Spencer Forson and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2022-02-23 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Truly divine wisdom is the greatest treasure in heaven and on earth and that is what this book explains. Each human heart seeks for a precious treasure and the Holy Scriptures teaches us to store up for ourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. Because where our treasure is, there our hearts will be also. Divine wisdom is more precious than rubies, gold, silver and diamonds and nothing we desire on earth can be compared with her. It is said that even if there is a perfect man on earth, without divine wisdom he would be considered as nothing. Wisdom’s purpose is for self- management, family management, administering the people of God and to govern the earth. Therefore, wisdom is the kingdom, and the kingdom is wisdom, because the desire for wisdom is the way to acquire a kingdom and the desire for the kingdom is to honour and receive wisdom. Wisdom is for rulership and those who get hold of her will govern nations and rule over people, and the Lord will reign over them forever.

Book Synopsis The Knowledge of the Holy by : A. W. Tozer
Download or read book The Knowledge of the Holy written by A. W. Tozer and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-13 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: True religion confronts earth with heaven and brings eternity to bear upon time. The messenger of Christ, though he speaks from God, must also, as the Quakers used to say, "speak to the condition" of his hearers; otherwise he will speak a language known only to himself. His message must be not only timeless but timely. He must speak to his own generation. The message of this book does not grow out of these times but it is appropriate to them. It is called forth by a condition which has existed in the Church for some years and is steadily growing worse. I refer to the loss of the concept of majesty from the popular religious mind. The Church has surrendered her once lofty concept of God and has substituted for it one so low, so ignoble, as to be utterly unworthy of thinking, worshipping men. This she has done not deliberately, but little by little and without her knowledge; and her very unawareness only makes her situation all the more tragic.

Book Synopsis Sophia, the Wisdom of God by : Sergei Bulgakov
Download or read book Sophia, the Wisdom of God written by Sergei Bulgakov and published by SteinerBooks. This book was released on 1993 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[Bulgakov] was a torchbearer for what was coming to be called Sophiology.... His championship for Sophia was clearly an attempt to revitalize Orthodoxy and to reestablish the spirit of the divine feminine so that the Church should not remain off-balanced by its Christocentric view." --Caitlin Matthews, Sophia, Goddess of Wisdom There is a great hunger to recover the feminine aspect of the Divinity. But much searching has left Christians disappointed and seeking the "Goddess" elsewhere. In this brave theological work, Bulgakov shows how the Divine Sophia, in whom all things are created, is present in the Holy Trinity itself and how, as the "creaturely Sophia," she works together with her divine counterpart in the work of the Holy Spirit for the redemption of the world.
