Book Synopsis Eschatology in Genesis by : Jonathan Huddleston
Download or read book Eschatology in Genesis written by Jonathan Huddleston and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2012 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, Jonathan Huddleston examines Genesis as a rhetorical whole, addressing Persian-era Judean expectations. While some have contrasted Genesis' account of origins with prophetic accounts of the future, literary and historical evidence suggests that Genesis narrates Israel's origins precisely in order to ground Judea's hopes for an eschatological restoration. Promises to the ancestors semiotically apply to those who preserved, composed, and received the text of Genesis. Judea imagines its mythic destiny as a great nation exemplifying and spreading blessing among the families of the earth. Genesis' vision of Israel's destiny coheres with the postexilic prophetic eschatology, identifying Israel as a precious seed to carry forward promises of a yet-to-be-realized creation fruitfulness.

Book Synopsis A New Heaven and a New Earth by : J. Richard Middleton
Download or read book A New Heaven and a New Earth written by J. Richard Middleton and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2014-11-25 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, more and more Christians have come to appreciate the Bible's teaching that the ultimate blessed hope for the believer is not an otherworldly heaven; instead, it is full-bodied participation in a new heaven and a new earth brought into fullness through the coming of God's kingdom. Drawing on the full sweep of the biblical narrative, J. Richard Middleton unpacks key Old Testament and New Testament texts to make a case for the new earth as the appropriate Christian hope. He suggests its ethical and ecclesial implications, exploring the difference a holistic eschatology can make for living in a broken world.
Book Synopsis The Gospel of Genesis by : Warren Gage
Download or read book The Gospel of Genesis written by Warren Gage and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2001-03-07 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gage's thesis is that Genesis 1-7 constitutes a paradigm for macrocosmic (world) and microcosmic (Israelite) history, so that the history of the prediluvian world is parelleled in the histories of the postdiluvian world. This thesis is supported by an examination of the structural and literary parallels in the historical records; after identifying five major theological themes as having their basis in Genesis 1-7, Gage then traces them through Scripture, showing that the eschatology of the Bible is intimately bound up with the protology of the early chapters of Genesis.
Book Synopsis Eschatology in the Indo-Iranian Traditions by : Mitra Ara
Download or read book Eschatology in the Indo-Iranian Traditions written by Mitra Ara and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eschatology in the Indo-Iranian Traditions traces the roots of the belief in life after death from the earliest religious beliefs of the Indo-European people, through its first textual emergence among the Indo-Iranians. Tracing the Indo-Iranian concepts of the nature and constitution of man, with special reference to the doctrine of the Soul and its transmigration, the book demonstrates the profound nature of the physical, ethical, spiritual, and psychological ideals embodied in these thought systems as preserved in the Indian and Iranian scriptures. The central issue was death and the journey to the afterlife. Exploring the characteristic features of Indo-Iranian religions provides a better understanding of the development of eschatological beliefs in later religions in the same way that the Zoroastrian apocalyptic beliefs point to genetic historical relations among Judaism, Zoroastrianism, Christianity, and Islam. This comparative study enriches our understanding of the antecedents of afterlife beliefs and creates enthusiasm for further in-depth research into the Indo-Iranian religion as a system, acknowledging its genetic historical connections with both earlier and subsequent traditions. Eschatology in the Indo-Iranian Traditions has wide-ranging appeal to upper undergraduate and graduate courses in comparative religion, Asian studies, philosophy, and Indian and Iranian studies.
Book Synopsis The God of Israel and Christian Theology by : R. Kendall Soulen
Download or read book The God of Israel and Christian Theology written by R. Kendall Soulen and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With acknowledgment that Christian theology contributed to the persecution and genocide of Jews comes a dilemma: how to excise the cancer without killing the patient? Kendall Soulen shows how important Christian assertions-the uniqueness of Jesus, the Christian covenant, the finality of salvation in Christ-have been formulated in destructive, supersessionist ways not only in the classical period (Justin Martyr, Irenaeus) and early modernity (Kant and Schleiermacher) but even contemporary theology (Barth and Rahner). Along with this first full-scale critique of Christian supersessionism, Soulen's own constructive proposal regraps the narrative unity of Christian identity and the canon through an original and important insight into the divine-human covenant, the election of Israel, and the meaning of history.

Book Synopsis Abraham's Silence by : J. Richard Middleton
Download or read book Abraham's Silence written by J. Richard Middleton and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is traditional to think we should praise Abraham for his willingness to sacrifice his son as proof of his love for God. But have we misread the point of the story? Is it possible that a careful reading of Genesis 22 could reveal that God was not pleased with Abraham's silent obedience? Widely respected biblical theologian, creative thinker, and public speaker J. Richard Middleton suggests we have misread and misapplied the story of the binding of Isaac and shows that God desires something other than silent obedience in difficult times. Middleton focuses on the ethical and theological problem of Abraham's silence and explores the rich biblical tradition of vigorous prayer, including the lament psalms, as a resource for faith. Middleton also examines the book of Job in terms of God validating Job's lament as "right speech," showing how the vocal Job provides an alternative to the silent Abraham. This book provides a fresh interpretation of Genesis 22 and reinforces the church's resurgent interest in lament as an appropriate response to God.
Book Synopsis The Future of the World by : Tiffany Eberle Kriner
Download or read book The Future of the World written by Tiffany Eberle Kriner and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kriner tells the story of how readers participate in the future of the word, the eschatology of texts. If texts have a future in the kingdom of God, then readers’ engagements with them—everything from preservation and utterance to translation, criticism, and call and response—can cultivate those futures in the love of the Trinity. Kriner explores how the fallenness and failures of texts, alongside readers’ own failures, ultimately point to reading as a posture of reconciliation, in which reader and text meet in the Maranatha of all text.
Book Synopsis The Liberating Image by : J. Richard Middleton
Download or read book The Liberating Image written by J. Richard Middleton and published by Brazos Press. This book was released on 2005-03-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For two thousand years, Christians have been intrigued by the somewhat enigmatic Imago Dei references in the book of Genesis. Much theological ink has been spilled mulling over the significance and meaning of these words: "Let us make humanity in our image, according to our likeness . . . " In The Liberating Image, J. Richard Middleton takes on anew the challenge of interpreting the Imago Dei. Reflecting on the potential of the Imago Dei texts for developing an ethics of power rooted in compassion, he relates its significance to the Christian community's distinct calling in an increasingly violent world. The Liberating Image introduces a relevant, scholarly take on an important Christian doctrine. It will appeal to all Christians seeking to better understand what it means to be made in God's image.
Book Synopsis Biblical Eschatology by : Jeong Koo Jeon
Download or read book Biblical Eschatology written by Jeong Koo Jeon and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-10-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jeon's Biblical Eschatology explores the pattern of covenant eschatology, demonstrated and revealed in the Bible throughout redemptive history. In a sense, it is a revolutionary method to freshly examine and look at the entire redemptive history from the perspective of covenant eschatology because the Bible itself is the covenantal canon. Readers will marvel at how the author unpacks the pictorial pattern of covenant eschatology progressively revealed in the Bible. As we live in the Global Mission Age under the grace of God, it is vitally important and necessary to have a proper view of eschatology. Jeon's book will guide believers to a biblically balanced understanding of eschatology and properly equip them with a biblical, covenantal, and eschatological worldview to live their lives for the glory of God, actively participating in the Global Mission under the guidance of the Holy Spirit as we eagerly wait for the second coming of Jesus Christ.

Book excerpt: The book that Hank Hanegraaff considers his masterwork. "Most of what you've heard, read or been told about the end times is wrong," says popular radio host and best-selling apologist, Hank Hanegraaff. "We have come to accept a wide range of beliefs and teachings about the future, about the ultimate battle between good and evil, about the last days, and about how our world will end. And most of these beliefs and teachings are based on fundamental misinterpretations of what the scriptures really say about the end times." The Apocalypse Code helps readers understand what the Bible really says about the end times and why what we believe matters so much in today's world.
