Book Synopsis Paul and the Gift by : John M. G. Barclay
Download or read book Paul and the Gift written by John M. G. Barclay and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2017-09-11 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Barclay explores Pauline theology anew from the perspective of grace. Arguing that Paul's theology of grace is best approached in light of ancient notions of "gift," Barclay describes Paul's relationship to Judaism in a fresh way. Barclay focuses on divine gift-giving, which for Paul, he says, is focused and fulfilled in the gift of Christ. He both offers a new appraisal of Paul's theology of the Christ-event as gift as it comes to expression in Galatians and Romans and presents a nuanced and detailed consideration of the history of reception of Paul, including Augustine, Luther, Calvin, and Barth.
Book Synopsis Paul and the Power of Grace by : John M. G. Barclay
Download or read book Paul and the Power of Grace written by John M. G. Barclay and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul and the Gift transformed the landscape of Pauline studies upon its publication in 2015. In it, John Barclay led readers through a recontextualized analysis of grace and interrogated Paul’s original meaning in declaring it a “free gift” from God, revealing grace as a multifaceted concept that is socially radical and unconditioned—even if not unconditional. Paul and the Power of Grace offers all of the most significant contributions from Paul and the Gift in a package several hundred pages shorter and more accessible. Additionally, Barclay adds further analysis of the theme of gift and grace in Paul’s other letters—besides just Romans and Galatians—and explores contemporary implications for this new view of grace.

Book Synopsis Paul's Gift from Philippi by : Gerald W. Peterman
Download or read book Paul's Gift from Philippi written by Gerald W. Peterman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-03-28 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a study of Paul's response to the financial help he received from the church in Philippi whilst he was a prisoner in Rome. Philippians 4.10-20 has always puzzled commentators because of its seemingly strained and tortured mode of thanks. Word studies, psychological studies and literary studies have all failed to provide insight into the text, which is unique in the Pauline corpus. Using contemporary sources Dr Peterman re-examines this difficult passage in the light of Greek and Roman practices and language regarding the exchange of gifts and favours in society. He concludes that 'gift exchange' or 'social reciprocity', with its expectations and obligations, permeated every level of society in Paul's day, and that Paul's seemingly ungracious response was an attempt to create a new, Christian attitude to gifts and to giving.

Wouldn't it be nice to never experience pain or never have to take drugs to deal with pain?

Download or read book America's Gift written by Paul Merry and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-11-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why untold? Most blues histories, outstanding as they are, take us back to the late 1890s but rarely further. As South Carolina's Cradle of Jazz Project wrote: "From the end of the dances at Congo Square (c. 1820) to the beginning of jazz, there is a black hole ... when the old West African music slowly turned into the new music of America." America's Gift was written expressly to illuminate that 'black hole', to discover exactly what happened to America's slave music in the 19th century, and how it evolved during the centuries before. Why untold? First we examine the origins of Africa's ancient slave trade, the West's involvement with slavery from the 1400s, and how America's first Africans were pirated from Portuguese slavers. We tell how the musical rhythms of old Africa absorbed the melodies of white America, in the 17th and 18th centuries. We explain how various musical strands intertwined over those centuries, to finally create a music only named blues in 1912. Why untold? Such historical information is usually only available in isolation. America's Gift pieces the story together like a jigsaw puzzle, yet avoids the blues minutia and academic intensity often found in histories of 20th century blues. Not avoided are the 19th century's distasteful minstrel and coon song periods. Often cut from blues histories these days, these genres are so essential to blues' evolution. In America's Gift, facts are not overruled by political correctness.Why untold? Discover how and where the term 'blues' evolved and how it reached America. Find out how only white singers recorded blues in America, from 1914 to 1920, and why black singers didn't want to sing blues. America's Gift tells you who-did-what-first in the years leading up to and into the blues era, and the genres they did it in. It is the first book, to our knowledge, to link American sea shanties to the evolution of the blues.Why untold? America's Gift discovers blues recorded in London by African Americans three years BEFORE the generally-accepted date of 1920. It tracks down the earliest known African Americans playing the folk music later called blues, and what they sang. It discloses who published and recorded what blues song first, who recorded the first blues guitar, first guitar solo, first slide guitar, first harmonica, first country blues and first electric guitar blues, even earlier sometimes than previously thought. Why untold? Read about the great blues dispute of 1938 where two blues giants argued over the genre's past. America's Gift gives you the full blues story up to the 1950s. On the way it selects 20 rocking blues tracks that pre-empted rock 'n' roll. These date from 1936 to 1949, years before the oft-cited Rocket 88 in 1952.America's Gift is illustrated, nearly a foot tall and an inch thick, with 367 pages of easy-to-read type and a 21-page index. It has been described as a "lightening read", just in case you're thinking it might be a bit stodgy.
