Book Synopsis Five Scrolls for All Times by : Tony Cartledge
Download or read book Five Scrolls for All Times written by Tony Cartledge and published by Nurturing Faith Incorporated. This book was released on 2017-06-16 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I love digging into parts of the Bible that are underexplored. As an archaeological excavation can uncover layer upon layer of ancient civilizations hiding just beneath the earth's surface, so the trowel of careful study and exegesis can unearth layers of meaning that have long been overlooked. So it is with the five brief biblical books we will study in this volume. The book of Ruth is familiar to many Christians as a story of love and devotion--but not for its deeper significance. Esther is a lesser known heroine whose story is more convoluted and troubling than it appears. The Song of Songs, with its frank eroticism, has frightened pious clerics into masking its message with allegory, while the dark books of Lamentations and Ecclesiastes may send readers fleeing to higher literary ground lest they become too deeply enmeshed in the hard questions of life. Our purpose in these Bible studies is to tackle these texts as they have come to us, digging beneath surface pleasantries to discover the clever, hopeful, skeptical, sorrowful, delightful, and sometimes naked characters beneath. In doing so, we may see new things, think new thoughts, and seize the opportunity to appreciate the scriptures even more. ---John D. Pierce, Publisher Nurturing Faith, Inc.

Download or read book The Five Scrolls written by Bob MacDonald and published by Energion Publications. This book was released on 2019-03-04 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where is a good starting point for reading the Bible? Five scrolls constitute the second section of the third major division of the Hebrew bible. These are the Song of Songs, Ruth, Lamentations, Qohelet, and Esther. The Song, like the Psalms, is a key to our hearing of instruction. Ruth establishes the Moabite ancestry of David showing we must read about enemies more carefully. The music of the Lamentations moves us with four acrostic poems and a fifth poem of 22 verses of prayer to make new our days as of old. Sing the melody of Qohelet that adorns chapter 3, the time for every delight under the heavens. And party with Esther. These five books are short and represent pieces of the whole story, the Song a key, Ruth, a snippet of history, Lamentations, the tragedy of the destruction, Qohelet, the words of the shrewd, and Esther, ultimate social success (including taxes). They are like the elaborate bow on the whole unfathomable present that is the Hebrew Bible. The Five Scrolls is volume 6 of the series, The Hebrew Bible and Its Music.
Book Synopsis The Forgotten Books of the Bible by : Robert Williamson Jr.
Download or read book The Forgotten Books of the Bible written by Robert Williamson Jr. and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2018-08-01 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You're probably missing some of the most interesting books of the Bible. In the Jewish tradition, the five books known as "The Five Scrolls" perform a central liturgical function as the texts associated with each of the major holidays. The Song of Songs is read during Passover, Ruth during Shavuot, Lamentations on Tisha B'av, Ecclesiastes during Sukkot, and Esther during the celebration of Purim. Together with the five books of the Torah, these texts orient Jewish life and provide the language of the faith. In the Christian tradition, by contrast, these books have largely been forgotten. Many churchgoers can't even find them in their pew Bibles. They are rarely preached, come up only occasionally in the lectionary, and are not the subject of Bible studies. Thus, their influence on the lives and theology of many Christians is entirely negligible. But they deserve much more attention. With scholarly wisdom and a quick wit, Williamson insists that these books speak urgently to the pressing issues of the contemporary world. Addressing themes of human sexuality, grief, immigration, suffering and protest, ethnic nationalism, and existential dread, he skillfully guides readers as they rediscover the relevance of the Five Scrolls for today.

Book excerpt: Irene Nowell's lively and thoughtful exploration of these poetic and powerful books promises to ignite appreciation and understanding in the hearts and minds of readers. The five books abound with vivid stories of faith. The Song of Songs, dedicated to Solomon, celebrates the wonder of human love. The book of Ruth, a masterpiece of storytelling, tells of two valiant women who move from emptiness to fullness, desolation to redemption. Lamentations, telling of the destruction of Jerusalem, recognizes that the Lord has struck and that only the Lord can heal. Ecclesiastes teaches the futility of vanity and storing up riches. The book of Esther tells the story of a Jewish woman and her uncle who, by their courage and wit, deliver the Jews from threatened genocide. Gathered together and artfully explored, this volume offers readers a wealth of information to inspire deeper understanding of the human journey and God's presence in the lives of those who trust in him.

Book excerpt: The five books of the Hebrew Bible known--collectively as the Five Scrolls--are among the most universally revered books of the Old Testament and are considered "wells of living water" from which flow the intense spirituality of deep Jewish piety.
