Download or read book The Apostles Peter, Paul, John, Thomas and Philip with Their Companions in Late Antiquity written by Bremmer Jan and published by . This book was released on 2021-07 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first modern collection of studies on the reception of the apostles and their companions in Late Antiquity, earlier Middle Ages and the Orthodox Churches. The volume opens with an exploration of the nature of the stories about the apostles in Late Antiquity, highlighting some of the questions and problems these stories tried to answer. Chapter 2 takes us to the Forum Romanum and the Apostle Peter, and the latter's antagonist Simon Magus appears again in the next chapter. The next five chapters focus on Paul and Thecla. The first two look at the relationship between the canonical Acts of the Apostles and the Acts of Paul by concentrating on spatial aspects as well as sex and intermarriage, respectively. Three chapters concentrate on Thecla and show that the Acts of Paul and Thecla and Thecla herself enjoyed a very high reputation, were seen as authoritative--if not canonical in certain circles--and a source of inspiration for later hagiographers. We see the apostle John at work in the fairly unfamiliar Acts of John by Prochorus and the Acts of Timothy, but also his connection with the church S. Giovanni a Porta Latina in Rome. The section on Thomas takes up the textual tradition of the Acts of Thomas with new manuscripts, and the reception of the Acts in the hagiography and liturgy of the Orthodox Churches. The last two chapters focus on Philip, whose Acts Acts shows that in fourth-century Hierapolis local paganism was still a factor to be taken into account and to be fought, but also that the treatise promoted ideals of civility and self-control, which were not that far removed from those in the Gospels. As has become usual, the volume ends with a detailed index.

Book excerpt: This revised edition of Companion God is a unique commentary resource that combines contemporary biblical scholarship with the perspective of a third world culture similar to that of biblical times. Based upon the author's many years of teaching and preaching the Gospel of Matthew, along with his experience of having spent six years living in Nepal and India, the biblical text is accompanied by an engaging and anecdotal presentation drawing upon the practices and customs of the tribal cultures indigenous to that region, such as arranged marriages; animal sacrifices; festivals resembling the Israelite Passover; foot washing; week-long weddings; extended family; smothering hospitality; tribal traditions; and dealing with widespread leprosy. The five narratives and discourses in the Gospel of Matthew leading to the passion, death, resurrection, and the Great Commission are considered, along with the major Matthean themes; the Beatitudes; the Lord's Prayer; Jesus' conflicts in dealing with the Pharisees; and insights with practical application to contemporary life. This commentary is an ideal resource for use in colleges, Bible study programs, Bible study groups, and homily preparation. Book jacket.

Download or read book Apostle Paul and His Companions written by Rev. Dr. Hem Sagar Rasaily and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2017-12-29 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the history of the first-century church, the ministry of Apostle Paul was well-recorded by Dr. Luke in the Book of Acts. If Dr. Luke had not taken the time to write the Book of Acts, we would probably know hardly anything about him today. The Bible tells us that Barnabas, one of Paul’s companions, introduced him to the other apostles. He was responsible for recognizing Paul’s efficiency and the one who brought him to a minister in Antioch. Sadly, Barnabas himself was not well-known by most Christians. It was Paul’s friends who helped his ministry spread wide and become effective. As you read this book, I pray that the Holy Spirit will enlighten your heart and mind to help you understand the importance of Divine guidance and mission through spiritual mentors and be strengthened in faith.

Download or read book The Oxford Companion to the Bible written by Bruce M. Metzger and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1993-10-14 with total page 930 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible has had an immeasurable influence on Western culture, touching on virtually every aspect of our lives. It is one of the great wellsprings of Western religious, ethical, and philosophical traditions. It has been an endless source of inspiration to artists, from classic works such as Michaelangelo's Last Judgment, Handel's Messiah, or Milton's Paradise Lost, to modern works such as Thomas Mann's Joseph and His Brothers or Martin Scorsese's controversial Last Temptation of Christ. For countless generations, it has been a comfort in suffering, a place to reflect on the mysteries of birth, death, and immortality. Its stories and characters are an integral part of the repertoire of every educated adult, forming an enduring bond that spans thousands of years and embraces a vast community of believers and nonbelievers. The Oxford Companion to the Bible provides an authoritative one-volume reference to the people, places, events, books, institutions, religious belief, and secular influence of the Bible. Written by more than 250 scholars from some 20 nations and embracing a wide variety of perspectives, the Companion offers over seven hundred entries, ranging from brief identifications--who is Dives? where is Pisgah?--to extensive interpretive essays on topics such as the influence of the Bible on music or law. Ranging far beyond the scope of a traditional Bible dictionary, the Companion features, in addition to its many informative, factual entries, an abundance of interpretive essays. Here are extended entries on religious concepts from immortality, sin, and grace, to baptism, ethics, and the Holy Spirit. The contributors also explore biblical views of modern issues such as homosexuality, marriage, and anti-Semitism, and the impact of the Bible on the secular world (including a four-part article on the Bible's influence on literature). Of course, the Companion can also serve as a handy reference, the first place to turn to find factual information on the Bible. Readers will find fascinating, informative articles on all the books of the Bible--including the Apocrypha and many other ancient texts, such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, Pseudepigrapha, and the Mishrah. Virtually every figure who walked across the biblical stage is identified here, ranging from Rebekah, Rachel, and Mary, to Joseph, Barabbas, and Jesus. The Companion also offers entries that shed light on daily life in ancient Israel and the earliest Christian communities, with fascinating articles on feasts and festivals, clothing, medicine, units of time, houses, and furniture. Finally, there are twenty-eight pages of full-color maps, providing an accurate, detailed portrait of the biblical world. A vast compendium of information related to scriptures, here is an ideal complement to the Bible, an essential volume for every home and library, the first place to turn for information on the central book of Western culture.
