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.
Book Synopsis Ruth, Esther, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs, and Lamentations by : Robert Fyall
Download or read book Ruth, Esther, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs, and Lamentations written by Robert Fyall and published by People's Bible Commentary. This book was released on 2005 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The short books of Ruth, Esther, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs and Lamentations contain both interest and difficulty disproportionate to their size. Two of them are stories set in the wider framework of Biblical history; one is a puzzling book of wisdom; one is a love poem; one is a national lament. Some of them have been the subjects of fierce debate as to whether they should be included in the Bible at all! Each of these five books has profound pastoral implications, however. They take us into a world of intense joy and massive grief. Using story, poetry, proverb, dirge and lament, they run the whole gamut of human emotion. Each has its own distinctive style and emphasis and, as part of the canon of Scripture, each of these five books ultimately bear witness in some way to the gospel message.

Brief sermon "starters" follow, suggesting approaches for preaching on each book as a whole, As well as individual passages within the book, including passages found in the Revised Common Lectionary, used by more than twenty denominations. The complete text of a sample sermon from the book rounds out the discussion. Chapters close with a brief annotated bibliography of additional resources the minister may wish to consult while preparing a sermon for that book. A general introduction To The Megilloth stands at the beginning of the monograph. The Strangest Books in the Bible is designed particularly for ordained and lay ministers, priests, seminarians, and others who preach in churches and religious gatherings, As well as for faculty who teach in seminary or in Christian educational programs. it is also especially informative For The general reader who is interested in this strange, biblical literature.
