Book Synopsis The Nehemiah Factors by : Sharon Nobuhle Williams
Download or read book The Nehemiah Factors written by Sharon Nobuhle Williams and published by Global Growth Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-07 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various factors contribute to the mediocracy, division, or demise of a ministry. The greatest factor is the lack of godly, effective leadership. Unlike worldly standards, God holds Christian leaders to a higher standard. These opposing standards explain why sinful corporate leaders often find success, whereas ungodly Christian leaders often don’t. Anyone who believes they have a gift for ministry can establish one. However, it takes wisdom, integrity, character, and divine direction for a ministry to grow and thrive. The Nehemiah Factors contains various principles designed to empower current or aspiring leaders by providing timeless principles that Nehemiah employed while rebuilding Jerusalem’s walls. Each character-enhancing principle will promote spiritual growth while simultaneously developing leadership skills. The practical applications included will equip you to become the Godly, effective leader that God intended. From Nehemiah’s example, you will learn: → God’s hiring methods → The Importance of Discernment → Godly conflict resolution → “Communicative Etiquette” → Servant leadership, and much more This book is for you whether you are a minister, leader, teacher, manager, or mom. Applying these principles to your life will ensure that you lead successfully and in a manner that is pleasing to God.
Book Synopsis The Elisha-Hazael Paradigm and the Kingdom of Israel by : Hadi Ghantous
Download or read book The Elisha-Hazael Paradigm and the Kingdom of Israel written by Hadi Ghantous and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study deals with the most important king of the Aramaean kingdom of Damascus, Hazael, and the impact he had on biblical literature, which goes beyond the few verses that mention him explicitly in the Book of Kings and the Book of the Twelve. The extra-biblical sources reveal that Hazael managed to create a large kingdom and to expand his authority over the whole of Syria-Palestine, including the Kingdom of Israel and the House of David, during the second half of the ninth century BCE. The Bible presents that power of Hazael as oppression of both kingdoms, yet the biblical writers elaborated a much more nuanced portrait of Hazael than first meets the eye. In the Elijah-Elisha cycles, Hazael provides a theological interpretative paradigm, the Elisha-Hazael paradigm, which provides in the Book of Kings and in the Book of the Twelve (especially in the books of Amos and Jonah) the key to explain God's mysterious dealings with Israel and Israel's enemies. Hazael is presented as a faithful agent of YHWH, who fulfils the divine plan. Beyond the power Hazael yielded across the Levant in his life time, the Elisha-Hazael paradigm reveals his enduring influence in Judah and in biblical literature.
Download or read book God Saves written by Rick Dale Moore and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fresh examination of the Elisha narratives found in 2 Kings 5, 6.8-23 and 6.24-7.20 leads to a new interpretation of them as didactic salvation stories set against the Aramaean military threat to ninth-century Israel. Moore shows how an ingenious literary artistry converges powerfully with contextual dynamics to explicate the surprising and subtle saving actions of Yahweh in a troubled time. Each of the stories offers its own fresh disclosure of the time-worn tradition expressed in Elisha's own name: 'God saves'.

Book Synopsis The Elijah Enigma by : Hillel I. Millgram
Download or read book The Elijah Enigma written by Hillel I. Millgram and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis of the intertwining tales of Elijah and Ahab--mercurial prophet and Machiavellian king--this book is an accessible treatment of one of the most dramatic and well-known episodes in the Bible. In contrast to the popular image of Elijah as a courageous wonder-worker who calls down fire from heaven and ascends to heaven in a fiery chariot, this book contends that the prophet was a deeply conflicted man, torn between a burning idealism and a deep disillusionment over his failure to achieve his ideals. Despite his profound sense of failure, Elijah's struggle against the paganizing regime of King Ahab and his queen, Jezebel, managed to save monotheism from eclipse, and in so doing alter the course of human history. This work further proposes that the tale presented by the Bible is more than an account of an ancient battle between two historic figures: it is a paradigm of the struggle between the ideals of human dignity and justice, and the alternative of expediency in the pursuit of power, a conflict that pervades human life to this very day.

Book Synopsis The Crucial Bridge by : Thomas L. Brodie
Download or read book The Crucial Bridge written by Thomas L. Brodie and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Elijah-Elisha narrative (1 Kgs 16:29–2 Kgs 13) is the most underestimated text in the Bible. Far from being a disparate collection, it is actually a carefully crafted double drama that both mirrors life and synthesizes systematically the entire Primary History (Genesis-Kings). In a bold hermeneutical move it transforms the language of historiography–of patriarchs and kings–into the language of prophetic biography. This prophetic biography, rooted in historiography, later becomes the evangelists' primary literary model. The Elijah-Elisha narrative is the crucial bridge between the foundational narratives of Judaism and Christianity. Since the 1970s there has been increasing evidence that Scripture texts that at first sight appear fragmented are in fact unified. Judges is a striking example of this. Because of the earlier exegetical models used, Judges was often regarded as a collection of rugged traditions that were independent of one another. Now, however, these apparently disconnected stories are intimately interconnected. Brodie explains that, as with earlier research on Judges, the quest for history–for underlying traditions–has tended to obscure the existing narrative account. In particular, the Elijah-Elisha narrative has often been read as consisting largely of two independent units, two cycles of traditions. The Elijah-Elisha narrative is indeed twofold–it clearly highlights two main prophets–but it is also a careful unity, as closely knit as Judges is now seen to be. Chapters are "The Unity of the Narrative (1 Kings 16:29–2 Kings 13)," "A Synthesis of the Primary History: Initial Comparison Quantity Analysis," "A Synthesis of the Primary History: A More Detailed Comparison," "A Reinterpretation of the Leading Scriptures," and "A Literary Model for the Gospels." Thomas L. Brodie, OP, has taught Hebrew Scriptures and New Testament in various institutions across the U.S. and in South Africa and is now teaching in his native Ireland. He is the author of several books and numerous articles on the Scriptures. "

Book Synopsis The Spirit and the 'Other' by : Aaron Kuecker
Download or read book The Spirit and the 'Other' written by Aaron Kuecker and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-09-08 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this title, Kuecker uses social identity theory to examine the interface between the Holy Spirit and ethnicity in Luke-Acts . Kuecker uses an artillery of social identity theory to demonstrate that in Luke 's narrative the Spirit is the central figure in the formation of a new social identity. In his argumenation, Kuecker provides extended exegetical treatments of Luke 1-4 and Acts 1-15. He shows that Luke 1-4 establishes a foundation for Luke's understanding of the relationship between human identity, the Spirit, and the 'other' - especially as it relates to the distribution of in-group benefits beyond group boundaries. With regard to Acts 1-15, Kuecker shows that the Spirit acts whenever human identity is in question in order to transform communities and individuals via the formation of a new social identity. Kuecker argues that Luke depicts this Spirit-formed social identity as a different way of being human in community, relative to the normative identity processes of other groups in his narrative. This transformed identity produces profound expressions of interethnic reconciliation in Luke-Acts expressed through reformed economic practice, impressive intergroup hospitality, and a reoriented use of ethnic language. Formerly the Journal for the Study of the New Testament Supplement, this is a book series that explores the many aspects of New Testament study including historical perspectives, social-scientific and literary theory, and theological, cultural and contextual approaches. The Early Christianity in Context series, a part of JSNTS, examines the birth and development of early Christianity up to the end of the third century CE. The series places Christianity in its social, cultural, political and economic context. European Seminar on Christian Origins and Journal for the Study of the Historical Jesus Supplement are also part of JSNTS.
