Download or read book Theological Investigation Into the Concept of Covenant in Old Testament written by Alao Oluwafemi Joseph and published by Blessed Hope Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-14 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research is strictly limited to the theological investigation into the concept of covenant in the Old Testament and its implication in Yoruba culture. It must be noted here that the concept of covenant is very wide both in Old Testament and Yoruba culture, so the writer will only concentrate on the divine covenant that has to do with God's people in the light of the suzerainty covenant, and its comparison with the Yoruba cultural concept of covenant, making specific reference to the igbomina people in Yoruba South West Nigeria. By the way of recommendation though they are some similarities in the step while making a covenant in Old Testament and Yoruba culture, care must be taken in comparing the Yoruba deities with God. The Yoruba deities like ogun "the god of iron", sango "the god of thunder", and so on, are lesser gods and cannot be compared with the Almighty God. The Yoruba deities may be merciless and inconsiderate; the Almighty God is merciful and considerate.

Book excerpt: Although the arrival of the Bible in Africa has often been a tale of terror, the Bible has become an African book. This volume explores the many ways in which Africans have made the Bible their own. The essays in this book offer a glimpse of the rich resources that constitute Africa's engagement with the Bible. Among the topics are: the historical development of biblical interpretation in Africa, the relationship between African biblical scholarship and scholarship in the West, African resources for reading the Bible, the history and role of vernacular translation in particular African contexts, the ambiguity of the Bible in Africa, the power of the Bible as text and symbol, and the intersections between class, race, gender, and culture in African biblical interpretation. The book also contains an extensive bibliography of African biblical scholarship. In fact, it is one of the most comprehensive collections of African biblical scholarship available in print. This publication has also been published in paperback, please click here for details.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study sketches a complete arc from the impact at worldview level of covenant concepts in the Hebrew of the Old Testament to impact at worldview level among present?day Lomwe?speakers in northern Mozambique. It uses the challenge of adequately translating one Biblical Hebrew word, BERITH, to address missiological issues relevant throughout Africa. It proposes becoming the muloko wa Muluku, ?people of God?, as a powerful integrating framework.

Download or read book An Issue of Relevance written by Grant LeMarquand and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2004 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the center of the Christian world has migrated south, especially into Sub-Saharan Africa, a growing and dynamic African biblical scholarship has emerged. Prominent among the texts that have grabbed the interest of African biblical scholars is the gospel story of «the woman with the flow of blood» (Mark 5:25-34; Matthew 9:20-22; Luke 8:43-48). This book compares traditional North Atlantic scholarship on this gospel story with the new insights of African biblical studies in order to test the contention that these two versions of biblical scholarship are substantially different. In particular, this book argues that scholarships in the North Atlantic and African worlds differ in their conceptions of the goal of exegesis. For African scholars practical hermeneutical concerns are considered central to the exegetical task.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God's covenant with Israel has been a central theme in the study of the Old Testament since ancient times and has been a particularly prominent issue in biblical study during the last hundred years. This book shows that the debate over the covenant held during the last century has made it possible for us to see far more clearly than before how crucial the covenant idea was in the development of the faith of Israel. Far from being merely one among a wide range of terms and ideas that emerged and flourished, "covenant" is a central theme that provided a unique way of looking at the relationship between God and his chosen people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a synchronic, literary reading of the final form of the laws of Exodus 20.22-23.19 (commonly, though inaccurately labelled "The Book of the Covenant"), in contrast with primarily source- and form-critical approaches commonly utilized in the past. The work seeks to demonstrate that this literary unit is much more coherent, more integrated into its narrative context, less in need of the positing of corruptions, secondary insertions, rearrangements or the like than has usually been recognized. The approach instead seeks to find authorial purpose in each case where scholars have often posited scribal misadventure, "seams" between sources, disorder, contradiction, or corruption.

Download or read book Covenant: The Blood is The Life written by James Lindemann and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-09-20 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blood-Covenant spans the globe in such traditions as the Native American Blood-Brother bond. No mere contract variation, Covenant is a powerful relationship of a deep, unbreakable Love; yet when God does break it once, He pays the consequences He designed it to have. Throughout the 'Old' Covenant, certain elements of Covenant are declared, yet are not 'real' - until the 'New' Covenant comes, which is not a 'what' but a 'Who.' Everything changes when God literally comes to have Blood Himself, the result of which profoundly affects the 'Old' Covenant. This relationship is eternal and does not become obsolete on the Last Day. If the Bible is written within a Covenant environment, what does the modern Western reader miss that the ancient hearer would naturally recognize? Living in a culture that only has vestiges of Covenant, there is no easy or perfect answer. But the question can be very stimulating.

Download or read book Covenant and Creation written by William J. Dumbrell and published by Paternoster. This book was released on 1984 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God's grace demonstrated in the biblical narrative through the lens of covenant. This study analyses the different divine covenants of the Old Testament and argues that they are closely related. The successive covenants, from Noah to David, are seen to express the divine purpose for humanity from the creation onwards. William Dumbrell interacts extensively with attempts to explain the significance of concepts such as the gift of the land, victory, rest and the divine presence. This extraordinary book also throws light upon the Christian use of the Old Testament categories. This second, revised edition brings the subject right up to date.
