Book Synopsis The Election of Israel by : David Novak
Download or read book The Election of Israel written by David Novak and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995-05-04 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, David Novak conducts an historical, philosophical and theological reflection on the central Jewish doctrine of Israel's election by God, also known as the idea of the chosen people. Historically, he analyses the great change in modern Jewish thought brought about by Spinoza's inversion of the doctrine: that it was not God who elected Israel, but Israel who elected God. The development of that inversion is illustrated by the thought of the German philosopher-theologian, Hermann Cohen. Philosophically, Novak explores the ontological implications of the two differing theologies of election. Theologically, he argues for the correlation of election and revelation, and maintains that a theology of election is required in order to deal with two central questions, namely: who are the Jews, and how are Jews to be related to the world? The constructive picture which results leads to a fresh understanding of Jewish modernity.
Book Synopsis When God Wanted to Destroy the Chosen People by : Gili Kugler
Download or read book When God Wanted to Destroy the Chosen People written by Gili Kugler and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to narratives in the Bible the threats of the people’s end come from various sources, but the most significant threat comes, as learned from the Pentateuch, from God himself. What is the theological meaning of this tradition? In what circumstances did it evolve? How did it stand alongside other theological and socio-political concepts known to the ancient authors and their diverse audience? The book employs a diachronic method that explores the stages of the tradition’s formation and development, revealing the authors’ exegetical purposes and ploys, and tracing the historical realities of their time. The book proposes that the motif of the threat of destruction existed in various forms prior to the creation of the stories recorded in the final text of the Pentateuch. The inclusion of the motif within specific literary contexts attenuated the concept of destruction by presenting it as a phenomenon of specific moments in the past. Nevertheless, the threat was resurrected repeatedly by various authors, for use as a precedent or a justification for present affliction.
Book Synopsis Biblical Insights Into 'God's Chosen People' by : Des Griffin
Download or read book Biblical Insights Into 'God's Chosen People' written by Des Griffin and published by Banned Books. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who are God's Chosen People? The Jews? Born again Christians? Or some other group? This is an important question about which there is tremendous controversy. Who can authoritatively establish the true identity of God's Chosen People? Is the definitive answer found in your Bible? Des Griffin, the well known author of five other blockbuster books, was challenged a few years ago to resolve this vital Issue. Starting off with many more questions than answers, he examined the matter from every conceivable angle. His finely honed conclusions, anchored immovably in the pages of God's Word, are so clearly defined in scripture that many readers will "kick themselves" for not having previously understood the Creator's revelation on the matter. As the reader is led systematically from Genesis to Revelation, previously overlooked scriptures will leap into life. Statements made by Jesus, Paul, Peter, and others will practically "jump off the page" as previously unrecognized truths come to light. The reader's mind will be flooded with the answers to former spiritual dilemmas. Previous misunderstandings and misconceptions will evaporate and vanish under the piercing light of God's Word. God's Chosen People is a powerful Bible study guide.

Book Synopsis The New Chosen People, Revised and Expanded Edition by : William W. Klein
Download or read book The New Chosen People, Revised and Expanded Edition written by William W. Klein and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-11-25 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Controversy rages on about God's choosing people for salvation. Are only the few elect? Rather than typically beginning with the preconceptions of systematic theologies, Dr. William Klein takes up this question by searching for a biblical theology of election. He surveys the OT contexts of God's choosing individuals--prophets, priests, kings--to serve divine purposes, and considers God's election of the nation of Israel as his special people. This OT study proposes that God's election is both individual and corporate, but not always determinative. Individuals entered the people of God by birth, but not all the people found salvation. Faith in Yahweh was required. This book traces these elective understandings through the intertestamental literature, identifying continuities and shifts. The bulk of the study, and the heart of the argument, focus on the New Testament. Klein identifies concepts of election, and relationships between writers in the gospels, the Lucan material, Paul's writings, and the rest. The new covenant, God choosing the church in Christ, emphasizes election as corporate, while the individual election of Jesus' disciples and of Paul raises the question whether such chosenness is necessarily salvific. In closing, Klein discusses the most engaging and divisive questions around God's election, and offers a real challenge to today's church.
Book Synopsis Who Are the Real Chosen People? by : Reuven Firestone
Download or read book Who Are the Real Chosen People? written by Reuven Firestone and published by Turner Publishing Company. This book was released on 2011-01-18 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Does It Mean to Be "Chosen"? Why Did God Have to Choose? “To be chosen can have a range of meaning from the mundane to the holy, but in all cases it means to be singled out and preferred over others. In a deep sense that permeates much or most of Western culture, having been chosen communicates a sense of something that is extraordinary, is transcendent, and entitles a reward. What is assumed in this sense of the term is that God has done the choosing and the reward is something that is unequaled, for what could possibly equal divinely ordained eternal happiness?” —from the Introduction Religious people who define themselves as monotheists have often advanced the idea that their relationship with God is unique and superior to all others. Theirs supersedes those who came before, and is superior to those who have followed. This phenomenon tends to be expressed in terms not only of supersessionism, but also “chosenness,” or “election.” Who is most beloved by God? What expression of the divine will is the most perfect? Which relationship reflects God's ultimate demands or desire? In this fascinating examination of the religious phenomenon of chosenness, Reuven Firestone explores the idea of covenant, and the expressions of supersessionism as articulated through the scriptures of the three major monotheistic religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. He explores how and why the ongoing competition and friction between these religions came about, and offers thoughts about how to overcome it.
Book Synopsis The Chosen People by : A. Chadwick Thornhill
Download or read book The Chosen People written by A. Chadwick Thornhill and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2015-10-29 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the central touchstones of Second Temple Judaism is election. The Jews considered themselves a people set apart for God?s special purpose. So it is not surprising that this concept plays such an important role in Pauline theology. In this careful and provocative study, Chad Thornhill considers how Second Temple understandings of election influenced key Pauline texts. Thornhill seeks to establish the thought patterns of the ancient texts regarding election, with sensitivity to social, historical and literary factors. He carefully considers questions of "extent" (ethnic/national or remnant), the relationship to the individual (corporate or individual in focus), and the relationship to salvation (divine/human agency and the presence of "conditions"). Thornhill looks at the markers or conditions that defined various groups, and considers whether election was viewed by ancient authors as merited, given graciously or both. Thorough and measured, the author contends that individual election is not usually associated with a "soteriological" status but rather with the quality of the individual (or sometimes group) in view—the collective entity is in view in the Jewish notion of election. While Paul is certainly able to move beyond these categories, Thornhill shows how he too follows these patterns.

Book Synopsis The Jews as a Chosen People by : S. Leyla Gurkan
Download or read book The Jews as a Chosen People written by S. Leyla Gurkan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2008-12-05 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of the Jews as a chosen people is a key element of the Jewish faith and identity. This book explores the idea of chosenness from the ancient world, through modernity and into the Post-Holocaust era. Analysing a vast corpus of biblical, ancient, rabbinic and modern Jewish literature, the author seeks to give a better understanding of this central doctrine of the Jewish religion. She shows that although the idea of chosenness has been central to Judaism and Jewish self-definition, it has not been carried to the present day in the same form. Instead it has gone through constant change, depending on who is employing it, against what sort of background, and for what purpose. Surveying the different and sometimes conflicting interpretations of the doctrine of chosenness that appear in Ancient, Modern, and Post-Holocaust periods, the dominant themes of ‘Holiness’, ‘Mission’, and ‘Survival’ are identified in each respective period. The theological, philosophical, and sociological dimensions of the question of Jewish chosenness are thus examined in their historical context, as responses to the challenges of Christianity, Modernity, and the Holocaust in particular. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of Jewish Studies, the Holocaust, religion and theology.

Book excerpt: What do you think, are the Jews still God's chosen people? Is your answer based more on theological tradition or the clear teaching of Scripture? In other words, how would you make your case from the Bible? In God's Chosen People, theologian and pastor A. Blake White makes his biblical case that "Jesus Christ and His people are the fulfillment of all OT prophecy," even the prophecies about the Jews. Now that Christ has come, it's about your faith, not your family tree. Actually, that was God's plan all along.
