Book Synopsis Wisdom Commentary: John 11-21 by : Mary L. Coloe
Download or read book Wisdom Commentary: John 11-21 written by Mary L. Coloe and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching and researching the Gospel of John for thirty years has led author Mary L. Coloe to an awareness of the importance of the wisdom literature to make sense of Johannine theology, language, and symbolism: in the prologue, with Nicodemus, in the Bread of Life discourse, with Mary and Lazarus, and in the culminating “Hour.” She also shows how the late Second Temple theology expressed in the books of Sirach and Wisdom, considered deuterocanonical and omitted from some Bible editions, are essential intertexts. Only the book of Wisdom speaks of “the reign of God” (Wis 10:10), “eternity life” (Wis 5:15), and the ambrosia maintaining angelic life (Wis 19:21)—all concepts found in John’s Gospel. While the Gospel explicitly states the Logos was enfleshed in Jesus, this is also true of Sophia. Coloe makes the case that Jesus’s words and deeds embody Sophia throughout the narrative. At the beginning of each chapter Coloe provides text from the later wisdom books that resonate with the Gospel passage, drawing Sophia out of the shadows.

Download or read book John's Wisdom written by Ben Witherington and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus as depicted in the Fourth Gospel is remarkably dissimilar to the Jesus found in the synoptic gospels. In this book, Witherington places the Gospel of John within its proper literary, historical, social and theological contexts. What emerges is a compelling argument that the Gospel of John has an agenda for mission, in addition to concerns for discipleship and community life.
Book Synopsis Wisdom Commentary: Luke 10-24 by : Barbara E. Reid, OP
Download or read book Wisdom Commentary: Luke 10-24 written by Barbara E. Reid, OP and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2021-04-15 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because there are more women in the Gospel of Luke than in any other gospel, feminists have given it much attention. In this commentary, Shelly Matthews and Barbara Reid show that feminist analysis demands much more than counting the number of female characters. Feminist biblical interpretation examines how the female characters function in the narrative and also scrutinizes the workings of power with respect to empire, to anti-Judaism, and to other forms of othering. Matthews and Reid draw attention to the ambiguities of the text-both the liberative possibilities and the ways that Luke upholds the patriarchal status quo-and guide readers to empowering reading strategies.
Book Synopsis Wisdom Christology in the Gospel of John by : Dustin R. Smith
Download or read book Wisdom Christology in the Gospel of John written by Dustin R. Smith and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-04-18 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contends that the Gospel of John presents the most thorough and robust Wisdom Christology of all the New Testament books. Wisdom Christology—the christological concept that applies the roles, characteristics, and functions of God’s personified wisdom to the man Jesus Christ—is displayed to be skillfully interwoven throughout all twenty-one chapters of the Fourth Gospel, starting with the famous prologue. In response to the prevailing tendency among interpreters to project postbiblical understandings of Jesus from the fourth- and fifth-century church councils back into the Gospel of John, this volume shows that a more fitting context emerges from Jewish Wisdom literature. By situating the Johannine Jesus in his first-century Jewish context, readers can appreciate John’s commitment to monotheism and Jesus’ role as the Father’s highly empowered human agent, fully embodying Lady Wisdom.

Book Synopsis How to Read the Gospels by : Yung Suk Kim
Download or read book How to Read the Gospels written by Yung Suk Kim and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-05-29 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This accessible introduction to the Gospels examines the distinctive messages offered by the texts, giving students a better understanding of methods and interpretations. It explores a close reading of each Gospel and encourages students to approach texts from their own perspectives, from postcolonialism to environmentalism. The discussion questions included will help students focus their reflections on the gospel narrative, its theology, and methods of reading it. How to Read the Gospels is an ideal textbook for undergraduate and seminary classrooms. The book aims to reach seminary and graduate students who study the Gospels critically and comprehensively. It provides user-friendly summaries such as the basics of each Gospel—authorship, history, important parables, etc. —the Jesus of each Gospel, and notable interpretation and translation issues. Without reading the entire story, readers often focus on only specific passages. This book aims to foster close reading of each entire text, sensitizing students to historical and literary issues that commonly arise—and helping them better understand various ways to interpret these formative stories. What makes this book unique is that it also engages various readings of the Gospels from traditional to deconstruction approaches, including womanist interpretation, disability interpretation, ecological interpretation, and many more. For example, how can readers understand the story of Jesus’ surprising conversation with the Samaritan woman in John 4 through the lens of feminism? Or postcolonial criticism? By providing alternative ways to think about these stories and various methods of approaching texts that may be new to the student, the book opens up how such passages can be interpreted and appreciated.

Book Synopsis Missed Treasures of the Holy Spirit by : Jeremy Corley
Download or read book Missed Treasures of the Holy Spirit written by Jeremy Corley and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-04-10 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume on the Holy Spirit, “Missed Treasures” designates the rich pneumatologies in the New Testament books and letters beyond Paul, John, and Luke-Acts. Depictions of the Holy Spirit in Matthew, the Letter of James, Revelation, and other books are analyzed and incorporated into the theological tapestry of New Testament thought. Another unique feature of this volume is its focus on the numinous presence of God in the sweep of Israel’s history; there are chapters on the Septuagint, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the Wisdom of Solomon that trace Christian pneumatology back to its source, the Hebrew Scriptures. In short, this volume expands the scholarly conversation exponentially as it explores a complement of texts spanning the New Testament and reaching back into the Hebrew Scriptures. A lucid guide to the distinctive pneumatologies of the New Testament, this collection is must reading for all who would engage the dialogue between scriptural study and systematic theology.

Download or read book Give Me a Sign written by Kendall Conger and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gospel of John concisely captures volumes of thought and feeling in an original and bare-boned sketch. A slower unpacking of this narrative outline is powerfully compelling in presenting Jesus as the central figure in history whose supernatural life is the only explanation for the Gospel’s existence and its global impact. The reader will see why John is considered by many to be the greatest literary work of all time, and why Jesus is the preeminent figure in literary and human history. For believer and unbeliever, it is important (and culturally relevant) to really grasp the one story and the one person who has captivated and changed the world more than any other.
