Book Synopsis Thinking about the Prophets by : Kenneth Seeskin
Download or read book Thinking about the Prophets written by Kenneth Seeskin and published by Jewish Publication Society. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rethinking the great literary prophets whose ministry ran from the eighth to the sixth centuries BCE—Amos, Hosea, First Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Second Isaiah, and Job—Thinking about the Prophets examines their often-shocking teachings in light of their times, their influence on later Western and Jewish thinkers, and their enduring lessons for all of us. As a noted scholar of Jewish philosophy, Kenneth Seeskin teases out philosophical, ethical, and theological questions in the writings, such as the nature of moral reasoning, the divine persona, divine providence, the suffering of the innocent, the power of repentance, and what it means to believe in a monotheistic conception of God. Seeskin demonstrates that great ideas are not limited by time or place, but rather once put forth, take on a life of their own. Thus he interweaves the medieval and modern philosophers Maimonides, Kant, Cohen, Buber, Levinas, Heschel, and Soloveitchik, all of whom read the prophets and had important things to say as a result. We come to see the prophets perhaps in equal measure as divinely authorized whistle-blowers and profound thinkers of the human condition. Readers of all levels will find this volume an accessible and provoking introduction to the enduring significance of biblical prophecy.
Download or read book Prophecy written by Howard Kreisel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 671 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than any other topic, prophecy represents the point at which the Divine meets the human, the Absolute meets the relative. How can a human being attain the Word of God? In what manner does God, when conceived as eternal and transcendent, address corporeal, transitory creatures? What happens to God's divine Truth when it is beheld by minds limited in their power to apprehend, and influenced by the intellectual currents of their time and place? How were these issues viewed by the great Jewish philosophers of the past, who took the divine communication and all it entails seriously, while at the same time desired to understand it as much as humanly possible in the course of dealing with a myriad of other issues that occupied their attention? This book offers an in-depth study of prophecy in the thought of seven of the leading medieval Jewish philosophers: R. Saadiah Gaon, R. Judah Halevi, Maimonides, Gersonides, R. Hasdai Crescas, R. Joseph Albo and Baruch Spinoza. It attempts to capture the `original voice' of these thinkers by looking at the intellectual milieus in which they developed their philosophies, and by carefully analyzing their views in their textual contexts. It also deals with the relation between the earlier approaches and the later ones. Overall, this book presents a significant model for narrating the history of an idea.

Book Synopsis End of Prophetic Ministry by : Charles O. Ndege
Download or read book End of Prophetic Ministry written by Charles O. Ndege and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2013-05 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the contemporary church, there has been an upsurge of those who claim to receive direct communication through visions and dreams. But their claim contradicts the testimony of scripture. This book will expose and analyze false prophecies made by two well-known American and Kenyan ''prophets''. According to Apostle Paul, the purpose of prophetic gift was for edification in the early church, so in the end it would not be carried about with every wind of doctrine (1 Corinthians 14:3, 5; Ephesians 4:12, 14). As the New Testament drew to completion, the same apostle taught that the role of prophetic gift was coming to an end, being superseded by completed and inspired Holy Scripture. Today the prophetic claims by contemporary charismatic "prophets" are never tested for veracity by any witnesses, contrary to apostolic admonition. These untested visions and dreams cannot compete with the inspired and tested words of Paul in edifying the church, which was the main purpose of prophetic gift in Bible times. "We need people like you who can give REASON for their faith objectively and consistently. Thank you." - George Odero, Nairobi, Kenya "This is just awesome! For lack of words of how to describe such a God-given insight into the truth ... It's about time someone was raised of God to counter some of these hypocritical religions." - Martin Kilungu, Nairobi, Kenya Charles O. Ndege of Kenya undertook an in-depth study of the Bible after his conversion in1982. He wrote this book so "the people of God may not continue to be deceived by the contemporary 'prophets' and their outlandish false claims." Publisher's Website: http: //sbpra.com/CharlesONdege

This book was released on 2024-01-22 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Philosopher, orator, apostle, legislator, warrior, conqueror of ideas, restorer of rational dogmas, the founder of twenty terrestrial empires and of one spiritual empire, that is Muhammad. As regards all standards by which human greatness is measured, we may ask, is there any man greater than he?’ – Lamartine, History of Turkey It is only lately that Western scholars have embarked on serious objective study of the life of the Prophet of Islam. In studying his life, certain factors must be kept in mind: Was the world in need of a universal divine personal message? Was the life of Muhammad, before he laid claim to prophethood, of such perfect purity as would indicate that he had been chosen? Was the message that he brought illustrated in his life and conduct? The purpose of this study is to institute an appraisal of the life of Muhammad which should be fully descriptive of its diverse facets and should enable the reader to carry out his own assessment of the man as an exemplary human being and as a divine prophet.

Book Synopsis Faith and Freedom by : Michah Gottlieb
Download or read book Faith and Freedom written by Michah Gottlieb and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-03-02 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent renewal of the faith-reason debate has focused attention on earlier episodes in its history. One of its memorable highlights occurred during the Enlightenment, with the outbreak of the "Pantheism Controversy" between the eighteenth century Jewish philosopher Moses Mendelssohn and the Christian Counter-Enlightenment thinker Friedrich Heinrich Jacobi. While Mendelssohn argued that reason confirmed belief in a providential God and in an immortal soul, Jacobi claimed that its consistent application led ineluctably to atheism and fatalism. At present, there are two leading interpretations of Moses Mendelssohn's thought. One casts him as a Jewish traditionalist who draws on German philosophy to support his premodern Jewish beliefs, while the other portrays him as a secret Deist who seeks to encourage his fellow Jews to integrate into German society and so disingenuously defends Judaism to avoid arousing their opposition. By exploring the Pantheism Controversy and Mendelssohn's relation to his two greatest Jewish philosophical predecessors, the medieval Rabbi Moses Maimonides and the seventeenth century heretic Baruch Spinoza, Michah Gottlieb presents a new reading of Mendelssohn arguing that he defends Jewish religious concepts sincerely, but gives them a humanistic interpretation appropriate to life in a free, diverse modern society. Gottlieb argues that the faith-reason debate is best understood not primarily as an argument about metaphysical questions, such as whether or not God exists, but rather as a contest between two competing conceptions of human dignity and freedom. Mendelssohn, Gottlieb contends, gives expression to a humanistic religious perspective worthy of renewed consideration today.
