Book Synopsis Paul's Concept of Justification by : Richard Kingsley Moore
Download or read book Paul's Concept of Justification written by Richard Kingsley Moore and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-02-11 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greek family of words characterizing the doctrine of "justification by faith" (as it is known in English) is most prominent in the writings of the Apostle Paul. It was this doctrine that lay at the heart of the sixteenth-century Reformation; Martin Luther and his followers considered it to be at the very center of the gospel. Protestants came to understand "justification" differently from the Catholic Church they had left. Instead of the Catholic "realist" view, in which God makes a sinner righteous, they came to a "forensic" understanding, by which God, as judge, declares a sinner righteous. During the nineteenth century a third, "relational" view began to emerge: it viewed "justification" as God's gift of a right relationship to a sinner. This monograph examines Paul's concept from three perspectives: the New Testament data; the way the doctrine has developed historically; and how the doctrine has been expressed in English translations of the Scriptures. The author concludes that it is the relational view that most accurately depicts Paul's concept of "justification."

Book Synopsis Both Judge and Justifier by : James B. Prothro
Download or read book Both Judge and Justifier written by James B. Prothro and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2018-04-13 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul often says that God "justifies" people in Christ, but what does that mean God does? The language appears legal, but many other interpretations have been suggested. Beginning from the use of this language in Judaism and early Christianity, James B. Prothro investigates biblical legal conflicts and the terminology of "justification" in Paul's letters to determine what it means for Paul to say that God as judge is the "justifier" of those who trust in Christ. --!

Book Synopsis Paul's Letter to the Romans by : Arland J. Hultgren

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on his own translation from the Greek, Hultgren walks readers through Romans verse by verse, illuminating the text with helpful comments, probing into major puzzles, and highlighting the letter's most inspiring features. He also demonstrates the forward-looking, missional character of Paul's epistle -- written, as Hultgren suggests, to introduce Roman Christians to the major themes of Paul's theology and to inspire in them both confidence in the soundness of his teaching and support for his planned missionary efforts in Spain.

Download or read book An Anomalous Jew written by Bird and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2016 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lively, well-informed portrait of the complex figure who was the apostle Paul Though Paul is often lauded as the first great Christian theologian and a champion for Gentile inclusion in the church, in his own time he was universally regarded as a strange and controversial person. In this book Pauline scholar Michael Bird explains why. An Anomalous Jew presents the figure of Paul in all his complexity with his blend of common and controversial Jewish beliefs and a faith in Christ that brought him into conflict with the socio-religious scene around him. Bird elucidates how the apostle Paul was variously perceived -- as a religious deviant by Jews, as a divisive figure by Jewish Christians, as a purveyor of dubious philosophy by Greeks, and as a dangerous troublemaker by the Romans. Readers of this book will better understand the truly anomalous shape of Paul's thinking and worldview.
Book Synopsis The Saving Righteousness of God by : Michael F. Bird
Download or read book The Saving Righteousness of God written by Michael F. Bird and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-03-07 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a series of studies on contentious aspects of Paul's doctrine of justification including the meaning of righteousness, the question of imputation, the role of resurrection in justification, an evaluation of the New Perspective, the soteriological and ecclesiological significance of justification, justification by faith with judgment according to works, and debates over the orthodoxy of N. T. Wright. The burden of this volume is to demonstrate that reformed and new readings of Paul are indispensable to attaining a full understanding of Paul's soteriology. An analysis of Galatians and Romans demonstrates that the covenantal and forensic dimensions of justification go hand in glove. The vertical and horizontal aspects need to be appropriately described and weighted in order to provide a holistic rendering of justification in Paul's letters. According to Paul, faith alone in Jesus Christ is the instrument of eschatological vindication; and faith alone marks out the true people of God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian doctrine of justification is of immense interest to historians and theologians, and continues to be of major importance in modern ecumenical discussions. The present work appeared in its first edition in 1986, and rapidly became the leading reference work on the subject. Its many acclaimed features include a detailed assessment of the semantic background of the concept in the ancient Near East, a thorough examination of the doctrine of the medieval period, and especially careful analysis of its development during the critical years of the sixteenth century. The third edition thoroughly updates the work, adding material where necessary, and responding to developments in scholarly literature. It will be an essential resource for all concerned with the development of Christian doctrine, the history of the Reformation debates on the identity of Christianity, and modern discussions between Protestants and Roman Catholics over the nature of salvation.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work Dr. Isbell has thought long and well about the complexities of the Old Testament as it is rooted in history but surges always to new theological interpretation. Dr. Isbell's program of a drama that is at the same time didactic (intended for community formation) and theological (meaningful beyond historical questions) is exactly the right accent. He has a powerful sensitivity to the interpretive dynamism that the text evokes. Preface; Charles Isbell has thought long and well about the complexities of the Old Testament as it is rooted in history but surges always to new theological interpretation. His program of a drama that is at the same time didactic (intended for community formation) and theological (meaningful beyond historical questions) is exactly the right accent. Professor Isbell has a powerful sensitivity to the interpretive dynamism that the text evokes and shows how that dynamism is intrinsic to the very character of the text in its final form. Readers of this book will be given access to the Bible beyond the popular options of rigid scholasticism and thin historicism. In Isbell's hands the creativity of the canonizing tradition continues in the

Book Synopsis The Significance of Theophilus as Luke's Reader by : Roman Garrison
Download or read book The Significance of Theophilus as Luke's Reader written by Roman Garrison and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few studies of Luke's Gospel (or Acts) give much attention to Theophilus and his potential significance despite the fact that Luke indicates specifically that he is writing 'for Theophilus'. Those which do not recognize the importance of Theophilus nevertheless dismiss him because almost nothing is known about the individual. Admittedly, we are left to conjecture and theory but the task, however daunting, is still necessary. A proper appreciation of Luke's Gospel - particularly when it departs from Markan tradition - must look to Theophilus' interests and concerns as the likely influence on the way the material is presented. To ignore Theophilus and to refer instead to Luke's 'church audience' is dangerous. This book attempts to solve the mystery of Theophilus and the man's influence on Luke's version of the tradition. As noted by H.J. Cadbury, the New Testament scholar is a virtual detective.
Download or read book Text and Task written by Michael Parsons and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-06-12 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practical, scriptural, and contemporary, Text and Task is a series of essays on Scripture and mission. It aims to show the significance of reading the biblical text appropriately and with faithful engagement for our theology and missiology. A team of biblical scholars suggests ways forward in areas such as the implicit missional narrative of David and Goliath, the story of Solomon and his Temple building, the genre of lament, the explicit gracious message of the prophet Isaiah, Paul's understanding of divine call and gospel, and the place of mission as a hermeneutic for reading the Bible. Theological chapters engage the issues of the Trinity and the unevangelized, the missional dimensions of Barth's view of election, the gospel's loss of plausibility in the modern West, the place of preaching in mission, and the idea of belonging to a church community before one believes the gospel. Drawing together scholars from the fields of biblical studies, theology, sociology, and homiletics, Text and Task relates critically engaged textual reading to contemporary ongoing Christian life, thought, and mission.
Book Synopsis Sacra Pagina: Galatians by : Frank J. Matera
Download or read book Sacra Pagina: Galatians written by Frank J. Matera and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2023-05-30 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul's Letter to the Galatians has played a major role in the history of theology, especially in the Church's teaching on grace, faith, and justification. This commentary argues that Paul's doctrine of justification by faith is essentially social in nature and has important ecumenical implications for the Church today. In its original setting, Galatians established a foundation for the unity of Jewish and Gentile Christians: all are justified by the faith of Jesus Christ. In addition to illuminating the historical situation that led Paul to write his Letter to the Galatians, this commentary pays careful attention to the rhetorical structure of this letter and its theological message. The author provides a fresh translation of Galatians, critical notes on each verse of the text, and a careful commentary of the letter in light of Paul's theology. Theories abound on the question of Galatians, why it was written, what it says, and what the implications of that message are. Yet few scholars have devoted themselves at length to this letter. What sets this work apart is its extent and detail, and its academic rather than popular intent.
