Book Synopsis The Theologian of Hope by : Kevin Jackson
Download or read book The Theologian of Hope written by Kevin Jackson and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2010-11-17 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many modern believers neglect the Old Testament for a variety of reasons. Some of those reasons include the literary, historical and cultural differences they encounter in the text. The book of Chronicles, though, bridges the gap between the Old Testament and the New Testament period. It does this by summarizing the Old Testament and pointing to the hope which is realized in Christ. The Chronicler encouraged his audience, the Post-Exilic community, to renew their hope in spite of their present disappointments. This hope, of course, was not realized until Christ. This present book highlights the uniqueness of the Chronicler's perspective and its implications on the gospel of Christ.

The Dictionary for Theological Interpretation of the Bible is a groundbreaking reference tool that introduces readers to key names, theories, and concepts in the field of biblical interpretation. It discusses these approaches and evaluates their helpfulness in enabling Christians to hear what God is saying to the church through Scripture. The contributors come from a variety of backgrounds, and the dictionary covers a broad range of topics with both clarity and depth.
Book Synopsis History, Literature and Theology in the Book of Chronicles by : Ehud Ben Zvi
Download or read book History, Literature and Theology in the Book of Chronicles written by Ehud Ben Zvi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-12-05 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History, Literature and Theology in the Book of Chronicles presents a new way of approaching this key biblical text, arguing that the Book employs both multiple viewpoints and the knowledge of the past held by its intended readership to reshape social memory and reinforce the authority of God. The Book of Chronicles communicates to its intended readership a theological worldview built around multiple, partial perspectives which inform and balance each other. This is a worldview which emphasizes the limitations of all human knowledge, even of theologically "proper" knowledge. When Chronicles presents the past as explainable it also affirms that those who inhabited it could not predict the future. And, despite expanding an "explainable" past, the Book deliberately frames some of YHWH's actions - crucial events in Israel's social memory - as unexplainable in human terms. The Book serves to rationalise divinely ordained, prescriptive behaviour through its emphasis on the impossibility of adequate human understanding of a past, present and future governed by YHWH.

Download or read book 1 Chronicles written by Martin J. Selman and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2016-03-02 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chronicler wrote as a pastoral theologian. The congregation he addressed was an Israel separated from its former days of blessing by a season of judgment. The books of 1 and 2 Chronicles bring a divine word of healing and reaffirm the hope of restoration to a nation that needed to regain its footing in God's promises and to reshape its life before God. The Chronicler expounds the Bible as he knows it, skillfully weaving his commentary into the linear text of Israel's history. His theme is straightforward--the promises of God revealed in the Davidic covenant are as trustworthy and as effective as the God who first uttered them. In two volumes Martin Selman provides an excellent interpretation of these sorely neglected yet profound books of the Old Testament. The first volume on 1 Chronicles provides a full introduction that surveys the Chronicler's method, summarizes major theological themes and serves as a valuable entrée into the heart of the work we now know as 1 and 2 Chronicles. The original, unrevised text of this volume has been completely retypeset and printed in a larger, more attractive format with the new cover design for the series.

Book Synopsis Theology, History, and Archaeology in the Chronicler's Account of Hezekiah by : Andrew G. Vaughn
Download or read book Theology, History, and Archaeology in the Chronicler's Account of Hezekiah written by Andrew G. Vaughn and published by Society of Biblical Literature. This book was released on 1999 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a doctoral dissertation completed in 1995 (no institution noted), Vaughn takes the treatment of Hezekiah in 2 Chronicles 29-32 as an opportunity to test the relationship between extra-biblical historical data and an interpretation of Chronicles. He combines archaeological and epigraphic evidence with a focused reading of the verses to argue that traditions or remembrances that were historically accurate were used to construct the ideological message for the post-exile community.
Book Synopsis King Manasseh and Child Sacrifice by : Francesca Stavrakopoulou
Download or read book King Manasseh and Child Sacrifice written by Francesca Stavrakopoulou and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-10-24 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hebrew Bible portrays King Manasseh and child sacrifice as the most reprehensible person and the most objectionable practice within the story of 'Israel'. This monograph suggests that historically, neither were as deviant as the Hebrew Bible appears to insist. Through careful historical reconstruction, it is argued that Manasseh was one of Judah's most successful monarchs, and child sacrifice played a central role in ancient Judahite religious practice. The biblical writers, motivated by ideological concerns, have thus deliberately distorted the truth about Manasseh and child sacrifice.
Book Synopsis Journal of Biblical and Theological Studies, Issue 4.1 by : Daniel S. Diffey
Download or read book Journal of Biblical and Theological Studies, Issue 4.1 written by Daniel S. Diffey and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-06-06 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Journal of Biblical and Theological Studies (JBTS) is an academic journal focused on the fields of Bible and Theology from an inter-denominational point of view. The journal is comprised of an editorial board of scholars that represent several academic institutions throughout the world. JBTS is concerned with presenting high-level original scholarship in an approachable way. Academic journals are often written by scholars for other scholars. They are technical in nature, assuming a robust knowledge of the field. There are fewer journals that seek to introduce biblical and theological scholarship that is also accessible to students. JBTS seeks to provide high-level scholarship and research to both scholars and students, which results in original scholarship that is readable and accessible. As an inter-denominational journal JBTS is broadly evangelical. We accept contributions in all theological disciplines from any evangelical perspective. In particular, we encourage articles and book reviews within the fields of Old Testament, New Testament, Biblical Theology, Church History, Systematic Theology, Practical Theology, Philosophical Theology, Philosophy, and Ethics.
Book Synopsis The Message of Chronicles by : Michael Wilcock
Download or read book The Message of Chronicles written by Michael Wilcock and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2022-07-19 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Wilcock sees Chronicles first and foremost as a sermon. Its object: to foster a right relationship between God and his people. The Chronicler finds in the records of Israel the great overall pattern of God's hand in history. The Lord's constant mercy, love, and faithfulness shine through. With great perception, the Chronicler first selects and then proclaims this vibrant pattern, highlighted in the living events of the nation's history. Once we grasp its purpose, the book comes alive. It can be seen as nothing less than a final and momentous look back over the entire Old Testament. In this commentary Wilcock shows how the various characters appearing in Chronicles make vivid the truths by which the Lord's people in every generation are to live. Part of the beloved Bible Speaks Today series, The Message of Chronicles offers an insightful, readable exposition of the biblical text and thought-provoking discussion of how its meaning relates to contemporary life. Used by students and teachers around the world, the Bible Speaks Today commentaries are ideal for those studying or preaching the Bible and anyone who wants to delve deeper into the text. This beautifully redesigned edition has also been sensitively updated with more current references and the NRSV Bible text.
