On the Way to the Postmodern

Old Testament Essays 1967-1998 Volume 1

By: David J. A. Clines

For these two volumes, the author has selected 50 articles and papers, ten of them not previously published, from his work as an Old Testament scholar over the last 30 years. Some of the papers, like 'The Evidence for an Autumnal New Year in Pre-exilic Israel Reconsidered', are far from postmodern in their outlook. But there is ample evidence here that the postmodern is indeed the direction in which his mind has been moving. The essays are organized in eight sections (Method, Literature, History, Theology, Language, Psalms, Job-and, for entertainment, Divertimenti). They include 'Reading Esther from Left to Right', 'Beyond Synchronic Diachronic', 'Story and Poem: The Old Testament as Literature and as Scripture', 'In Search of the Indian Job', and 'Philology and Power'-as well as 'The Postmodern Adventure in Biblical Studies'.

Method Matters

Essays on the Interpretation of the Hebrew Bible in Honor of David L. Petersen

By: David L. Petersen,Joel M. LeMon,Kent Harold Richards

As the field of biblical studies expands to accommodate new modes of inquiry, scholars are increasingly aware of the need for methodological clarity. David L. Petersens teaching, research, and service to the guild are marked by a commitment to such clarity. Thus, in honor of Petersens work, a cohort of distinguished colleagues presents this volume as an authoritative and up-to-date handbook of methods in Hebrew Bible scholarship. Readers will find focused discussions of traditional and newly emerging methods, including historical criticism, ideological criticism, and literary criticism, as well as numerous case studies that indicate how these approaches work and what insights they yield. Additionally, several essays provide a broad overview of the field by reflecting on the larger intellectual currents that have generated and guided contemporary biblical scholarship.The contributors are Yairah Amit, Pablo R. Andiach, Alan J. Avery-Peck, John Barton, Bruce C. Birch, Susan Brayford, William P. Brown, Walter Brueggemann, Mark K. George, William K. Gilders, John H. Hayes, Christopher B. Hays, Ralph W. Klein, Douglas A. Knight, Beatrice Lawrence, Joel M. LeMon, Christoph Levin, James Luther Mays, Dean McBride, Carol A. Newsom, Kirsten Nielsen, Martti Nissinen, Gail R. ODay, Thomas Rmer, C. L. Seow, Naomi Steinberg, Brent A. Strawn, Marvin A. Sweeney, Gene M. Tucker, and Robert R. Wilson.

Ezekiel, Daniel

By: EuGene Carpenter,David Thompson

The Cornerstone Biblical Commentary series provides up-to-date, evangelical scholarship on the Old and New Testaments. Each volume is designed to equip pastors and Christian leaders with exegetical and theological knowledge to better understand and apply God’s Word by presenting the message of each passage as well as an overview of other issues surrounding the text. The commentary series has been structured to help readers get at the meaning of Scripture, passage-by-passage, through the entire Bible. The New Living Translation is an authoritative Bible translation, rendered faithfully into today’s English from the ancient texts by 90 leading Bible scholars. The NLT’s scholarship and clarity breathe life into even the most difficult-to-understand Bible passages—but even more powerful are stories of how people's lives are changing as the words speak directly to their hearts. That's why we call it “The Truth Made Clear.” David L. Thompson (Ph.D., The Johns Hopkins University) has written scores of popular and professional articles. His books include Bible Study That Works and God’s Healing for Hurting Families. Dr. Thompson, an ordained elder in The Wesleyan Church, has pastored several churches. Eugene Carpenter (Ph.D., Fuller Theological Seminary) is Scholar in Residence and Professor of Old Testament, Hebrew, and Biblical Theology at Bethel College, Mishawaka, IN. He has authored and contributed to several books including commentaries on Exodus and Deuteronomy.

What Does Eve Do To Help?

And Other Readerly Questions to the Old Testament

By: David J. A. Clines

Readerly questions are raised when readers are explicitly and programmatically brought into the process of interpreting texts. Traditionally, the reader and readerly interest and identities have been screened out when we have set about interpreting texts, and we have set our sights on attaining an interpretation that shouldbe as "objective " as possible. Things are rather different now. Not only is quest for objective interpretation seen as chiaera, but the rewards of unabashed "readerly" interpretations that foreground the process of reading and the context of the reader have now been shown to be very well worth seeking. That reader-response approach characterizes this collection of six essays, prefaces by an introduction to reader-response criticism. The essays for the most part read in their original form to meetings of the Society of Biblical Literature, are: "What Does Eve Do To Help? and other Irredeemably Androcentric Orienations in Genesis 1-3"; What Happens in Genesis"; "The Ancestor in Danger: But Not the Same Danger"; " The Old Testament Histories: A Reader's Guide"; "Deconstructing the Book of Job"; and "Nehemiah Memoir: The perils of Autobigraphy". ".....one of the livliest writers on the Old Testament. " What Does Eve Do To Help ?" does not disappoint and at times is hailariously funny" C S Rodd Expository Times

The Eleventh Commandment

By: David J. McCarthy

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Eleventh Commandment

By: David J. McCarthy

This book is written to break the greatest deception the devil (or adversary of God) has ever accomplished among Christians and nations. The devil is known as the Deceiver of Nations. KJV Revelation 12: And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. This specific deception has been missed by every nation. The devil (adversary of God) worked this deception with his usual intent. KJV John 10: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. The devils MO or Mode of Operation is to steal, kill and destroy. It was his intent to hide the Eleventh Commandment, just so he (the devil), could steal, kill, and destroy God-kind. But God came that you might have life and have it more abundantly. Which would you rather have? Did you know that if you a leader of the church you will be responsible for breaking commandments of God (Exodus 32)? This is call to break the deception devil has woven. My impression from the Lord is over a Billion souls at stake. There are over a Billion souls both in the churches and still lost that this can and will affect.

The Narrow Road

Turning neither Left nor Right

By: David W. F. Wong

Why not go with the flow? Why not take the easy road? Why not keep on one side to be safe? In The Narrow Road, the author challenges readers to choose the path he describes as a mountain ridge with ravines on both sides. The way is narrow, difficult and perilous, but it leads to life. “In today’s confusing world, we find ourselves torn in different directions: hearing different teachings on all sides and uncertain which to follow; aware of the dangers of extremes but unsure what the middle course might look like. In The Narrow Road, David Wong offers sensible and biblically-based guidance, drawing on years of pastoral experience and teaching. There are no quick fixes or ‘magic bullets’ here, but much truth to reflect on.” — Dr Philip Satterthwaite Principal, Biblical Graduate School of Theology (BGST)

Out of the Dark Triangle

Out of the Dark Triangle

By: David Scovill

Africa had a David Livingston; China had a Hudson Taylor; India had a C.T. Studd; Indonesia has a Karlos Buburayai! His father called him, Kairo, the name for Satan impersonating a dragon. He was destined to become a powerful shaman in the spirit world of animism. But God had other plans. Scooped out of the jungle in an area of Papua, Indonesia called The Dark Triangle, and divinely preserved through numerous curses placed upon him-"worms will feed upon your dead body"-Karlos heard the Good News, and responded appropriately. This story of his intense burden to share this Good News; the timely encouragement given to him by the "white-robed One" and the powerful ways God is currently using him in a church planting ministry among those of the major religions in Indonesia will thrill your heart and sharpen your appreciation of what God can do through a man totally committed to Him. Author, David L Scovill, with his wife, Esther, have served the peoples of Indonesia for over half a century with UFM International, now Crossworld. The author's first book, The Amazing Dani, records the incredible conversion of the Western Dani tribe in Papua (formerly Irian Jaya). The story of this book takes place among another people in an area of Papua called, The Dark Triangle. Dave grew up on a farm in Minnesota; Esther, daughter of missionary parents, grew up in Cuba. Both graduated from Prairie Bible College, then added missionary medicine and linguistics to their training. Dave completed his post graduate work at the School of World Missions and Columbia International University. Their backgrounds, training and combined skills prepared them well for their many roles in Indonesia.
