Book Synopsis Biblical Captivity by : Robert Kimball Shinkoskey
Download or read book Biblical Captivity written by Robert Kimball Shinkoskey and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-09-11 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early literary man learned that free speech and free labor were frequently suppressed or obliterated by powerful governments in the Near Eastern world. This is the source of the Bible's passionate interest in liberation from political and economic repression. Moses and his people in Egypt, for example, experienced the rapid disintegration of their traditional right to religious liberty and self-directed labor. They attempted to rectify the situation at Sinai and in Canaan. Mesopotamians and Egyptians, Greeks, Sicilians, and Romans labored against tyranny as well. Robert Kimball Shinkoskey focuses on stories, laws, and movements dealing with the problem of political idolatry in the ancient world. His purpose is to show that the Bible is a civic narrative as much as a religious one, and that the Ten Commandments are articles in a constitutional law system that promotes the steady rule of law rather than the capricious rule of man.

Book Synopsis Creativity and Captivity by : Uday Balasundaram
Download or read book Creativity and Captivity written by Uday Balasundaram and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-12-02 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultimately, what really does it mean to be creative? How can we see ourselves as participating in the creativity of God for mission? All people are creative. Sadly, however, for many, creativity is stifled and remains stunted due to several reasons—social, economic, political, cultural, and even spiritual. This study explores how ICMs—indigenous cosmopolitan musicians—negotiate their creativity amid the liminal spaces they occupy as they share in the creativity of God for mission through their music. But what exactly does it mean to share in the creativity of God for mission? Contrary to popular notion, ICMs evidence that creativity is not merely innovation; it is not a psychological metric for measuring human potential; it is certainly not the “icing on the cake” reserved for a few so-called creatives or artists. Rather, “theological creativity” is participation in the creatio Dei; it is theologically prior to mission. As a missiological framework, creatio Dei is understood here in terms of creative being, creative construction (design), and creative performance. Hopefully, this book can help clarify and expand our understanding of what it means to be truly creative and, thereby, with the help of the Creator, put into practice principles of theological creativity as we share in the creativity of God in the world, with others.

Book Synopsis Setting the Captives Free by : Marion L. S. Carson
Download or read book Setting the Captives Free written by Marion L. S. Carson and published by Lutterworth Press. This book was released on 2016-11-24 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Setting the Captives Free explores how a theological understanding of slavery goes against the idea of a God who is loving and just with the intention of being widely used in churches, activist organisations and groups, and by individuals. Ardently arguing that slavery is incompatible with Christianity, Marion Carson analyses how both anti-slavery and pro-slavery movements have been justified with the help of Scripture. In Setting the Captives Free, she provides an answer to the question What can the Bible say to us about contemporary human trafficking? By looking through important passages from the Old and the New Testament, Carson suggests what they might have to say to us about slavery in the twenty-first century. She analyses how Christians changed their views of slavery after its abolition, before closely examining what the Bible has to say about slavery in general, especially with regards to prostitution. At the end of each chapter, study questions are included to aid individual and group discussions in the hope that they will increase awareness of human trafficking and encourage more Christians to become actively involved in its eradication.
Book Synopsis Encounter between Enemies: Captivity and Ransom in the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem by : Yvonne Friedman
Download or read book Encounter between Enemies: Captivity and Ransom in the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem written by Yvonne Friedman and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-25 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating study examines the customs, legal codes, and socioeconomic mechanisms that evolved from the initial Christian-Muslim encounter on Crusader battlefields. It pinpoints changes in European mentality, and conduct of war, tracing acculturation processes in Frankish society in the Levant. These changes emerged from the need to redeem captives, making payment of ransom to the infidel conceivable and acceptable. The book pays special attention to the story of the vanquished, to the situation of women, to the behavior of the Military Orders toward captives, and to the image of the captive in Crusader literature, in the context of making war and peace.
