Presents the story of the Exodus from Egypt to help discover a picture of God as responsive, speaking and acting, to challenge the hearer to make the appropriate response to him.
An exegetical study of the call of Moses, the second giving of the Law, the new covenant, Paul's self-understanding as an apostle, and the prophetic understanding of the history of Israel. Hafemann's work demonstrates Paul's contextual use of the Old Testament and the essential unity of the old and new covenants in view of the distinctive ministries of Moses and Paul.
A study that tackles the neglected subject of word order in biblical Hebrew poetry.
Presents a logical assault upon the Synoptic Problem which develops into a general treatment of the major issues in New Testament history. This book offers an integrated case for early dates and traditional authorship of the three Synoptic Gospels and Acts in opposition to the redundant hypothesis of Q.
In this study, Peter arises as the preeminent guarantor of the early Christian witness, especially as he displays the confluence of Christology, identity, and character formation derived from various New Testament writings associated with him.
This exceptional book explores our understanding of the Psalter as a book of prayer in the Judeo-Christian tradition. It focuses in original and helpful ways on the genre of Lament as a text medium through which personal distress can be engaged with and processed in the action of prayer, and explores some of the psychodynamic shifts which can occur for people praying in this way, providing some actual case examples of the process at work. The author provides a thorough examination of the lament genre found in the Psalter from a theological perspective and also offers a practical working model which could be incorporated into work with people who are suffering from distress in a variety of forms.
This is a clear and well-argued work for the authenticity of 2 Thessalonians. Following a critical examination of the history of the dispute, the author examines the life and epistle of the earliest external witness, Polycarp, to show that 2 Thessalonians was accepted as authentically Pauline about AD 90. Through a careful reading of the letter MacDougall demonstrates that 'tradition' (2 Thess. 2:15; 3:6) is a characteristic of the undisputed letters of Paul, that the doctrinal content - eschatology and imitation - is Pauline, and that the letter's style is authentic. A rigorous defence of the letter is long overdue. MacDougall provides a seminal work on the subject.
The current consensus amongst critical scholars is that the book of Daniel is a work of fiction. In Historical Issues in the Book of Daniel Thomas Gaston reviews and re-appraises the historical evidence for the events recorded in the book of Daniel, as well as considering several other connected textual and theological issues. Through scrupulous academic argument Gaston concludes that the book of Daniel stands up to historical scrutiny.
In evaluating Elijah as a prophet after the Mosaic paradigm, Dr Havilah Dharamraj proposes a radically different schema for interpreting what is one of the most dramatic and difficult texts in the Old Testament, namely, the earthquake-wind-and-fire theophany at Horeb (1 Kings 19).
This monograph explores the joy theme in Luke- Acts as it relates to the dynamics of rhetoric, narrative and emotion. The Gospel of Luke has been called the "gospel of joy", and the joy theme has also been recognised in Acts. This theme, though, has received relatively little attention in NT scholarship. Joy in Luke-Acts examines the joy theme from a socio-rhetorical vantage point, showing that the joy theme empowers the Lukan rhetoric of reversal. The theme is a primary method in which the narrator seeks to persuade the reader to enter into the values and beliefs that characterise the 'upside-down' world in which YHWH has visited his people in Jesus.
Offers an exegetical study of the call of Moses, the second giving of the Law, the covenant, Paul's self-understanding as an apostle, and the prophetic understanding of the history of Israel.
Research into the ancient world's view of disability - both literal and metaphorical.
There has been a lack of serious historical investigation of the famous creedal statement 'Christ descended into hell' that was universally affirmed by the church for the first 1,500 years of Church history. This book is an in-depth investigation of the history of the doctrine of Christ's descent and how Revelation 1:18 alludes to Christ's descent. COMMENDATION "In The Battle for the Keys Justin Bass leads us through an exceptional exegetical, historical, and theological exploration of the question of both the whether and whither of the Christ's descensus ad infernos. Whatever doubters or believers choose to do with Dr Bass's competent and convincing evidence, arguments and conclusions, they cannot choose to ignore them." - Michael J. Svigel, Dallas Theological Seminary, USA
The narrative function of the Old Testament characters in the Gospel of John.
A provisional and preliminary attempt to show how the formative hermeneutical thinking of Anthony C.Thiselton - once systematized and critiqued - can begin to resolve the major problems found in the discipline of hermeneutics today, most notably its varying 'disunities' - theoretical, practical, and interdisciplinary.
A careful and exegetical reading and examination of the Pauline passages that suggest particular atonement, together with a thorough engagement with contemporary scholars on the subject.
