Glimpses of a Strange Land

Studies in Old Testament Ethics

By: Cyril S. Rodd

In this challenging book Cyril Rodd questions many of the assumptions that lie behind recent studies of Old Testament ethics. He views the 'strangeness' of the biblical world and wonders whether there is an Old Testament ethics in the modern sense of the word - finding rather that the Old Testament writers did not regard many of today's ethical dilemmas as problems at all.Dr Rodd examines all the Old Testament writings on five ethical issues: the poor, war, treatment of animals, ecology and the position of women. He considers their validity and relevance for today and discusses the extent to which they can be referred to for authority - or for inspiration and guidance..

Is There a God?

By: Cyril S. Rodd

Many people today are perplexed about God. Some have become agnostics or atheists because they rejected outmoded ideas of God; others were brought up to believe in God, but as they grew older were not sure that such a belief was reasonable to hold in the current scientific climate; others hold on to faith but when challenged find it difficult to explain why they believe; and others have had religious experiences which make it impossible for them not to believe. This book should appeal to them all.
