Download or read book Rethinking Contexts, Rereading Texts written by M. Daniel Carroll R. and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2000-02-01 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together ten essays on the various contexts for texts that social-scientific approaches invoke. These contexts are: the cultural values that inform the writers of texts, the relationship between the text and the reader or community of readers, and the production of texts themselves as social artifacts. In the first, predominantly theoretical, section of the book, John Rogerson applies the perspective of Adorno to the reading of biblical texts; Mark Brett advocates methodological pluralism and deconstructs ethnicity in Genesis; and Gerald West explores the 'graininess' of texts. The second part contains both theory and application: Jonathan Dyck draws a 'map of ideology' for biblical critics and then applies an ideological critical analysis to Ezra 2. M. Daniel Carroll R. reexamines 'popular religion' and uses Amos as a test case; Stanley Porter considers dialect and register in the Greek of the New Testament, then applies it to Mark's Gospel. This is an original as well as wide-ranging exploration of important social-scientific issues and their application to a range of biblical materials.

Download or read book The Pentateuch written by Alice L. Laffey and published by Augsburg Fortress Publishing. This book was released on 1998 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alice Laffey's The Pentateuch points the way to a different reading of Scripture, one that raises fresh questions for the contemporary reader: power, liberation, justice, and preeminently, connectedness. Laffey's rereading of the major themes of the first five books of the Bible enables readers to gain a firm grasp of the contents of this major literary corpus. She highlights neglected resources in the biblical texts in order "to approach these texts from the perspective of a respectfully interdependent worldview." This radical expansion and transformation of feminist biblical criticism incorporates concern for all humans, all animals, all nature, in a global - even cosmic - way.

Download or read book Bible of the Oppressed written by Elsa Tamez and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2006-02-02 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why haven't we North American biblical scholars done such a systematic study of the words for oppression in the Bible? If the answer is that we who possess the critical skills are not ourselves oppressed or identified with communities of the oppressed, then it becomes imperative that we listen all the more carefully to these voices from the South. -- Walter Wink, Professor Emeritus of Biblical Interpretation, Auburn Theological Seminary, New York This book is a welcome addition to a growing body of evidence that the Bible is a book about social justice for the oppressed of the land and that this indeed is the good news. -- Marie Augusta Neal, SND de Namur, author of A Socio-Theology of Letting Go Elsa Tamez's book attracts our attention, not only for wrestling with a major biblical theme but also for keeping us in continuous contact with the text of the Bible. -- Carroll Stuhlmueller, CP, general editor of The Collegeville Pastoral Dictionary of Biblical Theology A careful and creative interdisciplinary study in biblical theology, Old Testament, and social ethics. Elsa Tamez's work has contributed to the church in Latin America and is now available as a readable, important resource for the English-speaking church. -- Jane Cary Peck and Carole Fontaine, Andover Newton Theological School Writing from a perspective of those oppressed by poverty and sexism, Elsa Tamez has brought us a wealth of analysis of the biblical understanding of oppression. -- Letty M. Russell, Professor Emeritus, Yale Divinity School Elsa Tamez is the author of 'Through Her Eyes' (Wipf & Stock reprint, 2006), 'Jesus and Courageous Women' (2001), and coeditor of 'The Discourse of Human Dignity' (2003).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new second edition of Corrine Carvalho's widely popular core text maintains the features, pedagogy, and engaging style that made the first edition so effective and successful, while adding a new element that makes it accessible to even more students than ever. The tone of the text is inclusive and does not presume a specifically Christian or religious reader; there's a new key to biblical texts discussed in the book, listed in canonical order in the front matter of the book; and the style of the book brings the stories of the Old Testament to life for students. Flexible, understandable, and filled with sound pedagogy--chapter overviews and summaries; guided readings of key biblical texts; and unique sidebars focusing on different aspects of, themes in, and methods for interpreting biblical text--Encountering Ancient Voices sparks students' interest in theological questions by connecting their queries to their everyday world. With its focus on reading strategies and active learning techniques throughout, it's an approach that empowers students to read the Old Testament on their own.

This book was released on 2007-07-03 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This best-selling book, now revised and updated, shares the work of many feminist biblical scholars who have examined women's stories for several years. These stories are powerful accounts of women in the Old Testament--stories that have profoundly affected how women understand themselves as well as men's perception of them. Here, Alice Bellis shares the research of feminist biblical scholarship during a quarter of a century, which renders a vast amount of refreshing, exciting, sometimes disturbing material.
