Ancient Israel and Judah
Step into the world of the Hebrew Bible and discover how the contexts of the people who lived in it illuminate and deepen our understanding of the Scriptures.In Ancient Israel and Judah, Beth Tanner takes readers on a compelling journey through the historical and cultural landscapes of ancient Israel and Judah, bringing the Hebrew Bible to life in an approachable manner yet to be achieved.An essential guide for anyone new to biblical study, this book bridges the divide between traditional religious interpretations and academic study, empowering readers to grasp the Bible’s theological themes in their full historical richness. From the origins of the Genesis narratives to the dramatic period of the Maccabees, Tanner skillfully distills centuries of history and complex concepts into an accessible and engaging narrative with relatable insights, offering clarity and context without overwhelming detail.Through an introduction to historical criticism and literary paradigms, readers learn to navigate the Bible’s poetic verses, sagas, and narratives with fresh eyes. Addressing modern misconceptions about biblical history, Tanner reveals how understanding the ancient world enhances both critical and faith-based readings of Scripture. With newfound insight, readers of this book will:• learn why history and context are essential to any interpretation; how historical events are part of the Bible but why history is not its primary purpose, thus alleviating perceived conflicts within the text;• develop an understanding of the story of the Israelites within the history of the ancient world as well as the other groups the people of the Bible encountered;• read the biblical texts with knowledge about the life and worship practices of the people for whom the biblical texts were intended.Moreover, the book’s unique inclusion of the often-overlooked late historical period (1000–33 BCE) sets the stage for the New Testament, offering vital context for students of all levels. Complete with charts, maps, and a glossary, Ancient Israel and Judah is more than a history book—it’s a road map to deeper biblical understanding.

Another Gospel? Student Edition
A movement seeks to redefine Christianity. Some think that it is a much-needed progressive reformation. Others believe that it is an attack on historic Christianity.Alisa Childers never thought she would question her Christian faith. She was raised in a Christian home, where she had seen her mom and dad feed the hungry, clothe the homeless, and love the outcast. She had witnessed God at work and then had dedicated her own life to leading worship, as part of the popular Christian band ZOEgirl. All that was deeply challenged when she met a progressive pastor, who called himself a hopeful agnostic.Another Gospel? Student Edition describes the journey Alisa took over several years as she wrestled with a series of questions that struck at the core of the Christian faith. She invites young people along on her journey with compelling stories, informative charts, and provocative discussion questions.After everything she had ever believed about God, Jesus, and the Bible had been picked apart, she found herself at the brink of despair . . . until God rescued her, helping her to rebuild her faith, one solid brick at a time.

Splendour of Worship
It is difficult to capture the flavor of Indian daily life without experiencing the richness of the traditions which permeate people’s lives. Daily worship of household deities, local shrines, the tulsi plant, mother earth, the rising sun, God’s names, ceremonies of the human life cycle, festivals of the Hindu year, pilgrimages, visiting sadhus and folk theater, keep life varied and colorful and raise spirits despite a physically hard existence. This book, informed by actual fieldwork, contains folk stories that are an inseparable part of Hindu feasts and festivals. Festivals studied are those which are celebrated solely or mainly by women and in which stories and paintings are important.
Kde vítězí láska, tam se děje Bůh
Výklady biblických textů, které se čtou o nedělích v kostelích a kaplích po celém světě, od profesora Univerzity Karlovy a kazatele Pavla Hoška.
Poetická a přitom přesná řeč. Schopnost vidět a pojmenovat kulturní i společenské souvislosti. A apel na srdce a na osobní víru. Nedělní texty vznikaly po deset let pro Katolický týdeník.
A co autor říká k jejich vznikání?
„Vždycky mám pocity začátečníka. Ale beru to tak, že jsem dostal úkol, který jsem si nevymyslel. Zas jednou se ponořit do svědectví proroků a apoštolů. Nechat se znovu vyvést z míry otázkou, čím nás ta stará moudrá Kniha může oslovit dneska a zítra, ve střední Evropě, na prahu třetího tisíciletí. Těší mě to, i když se mi mírně tají dech. Baví mě sledovat to sršení a jiskření, když prastaré verše hebrejských a řeckých rukopisů promlouvají klidným hlasem do ruchu a shonu moderního světa. A občas, vlastně docela často, jakoby zázrakem najednou zasvítí tenký paprsek světla odněkud shůry. Pramínek nebeské záře, který rozhání stíny a ukazuje cestu v temnotách. A dodává odvahu. A přináší naději. Do velkých i malých životních zápasů, kterým všichni čelíme.“
Nádej nikdy nesklame
Keď sa pozrieme okolo seba, vidíme pochmúrny svet: vojny, chudobu, hladomor, prírodné katastrofy, sociálne konflikty. Napriek tomu nemôžeme ostať pasívni, uzavrieť sa do seba, rezignovať. Nemôžeme stratiť nádej. Prijmime pozvanie pápeža Františka vykročiť na cestu nádeje. Nemýľme si ju však s falošným optimizmom či so zatváraním očí pred realitou.
František upriamuje našu pozornosť na znaky nádeje, ktoré nachádza vo všetkom, čo nás obklopuje: v tvári ženy, ktorá nosí pod srdcom nový život, v tvári chudobného človeka, utečenca hľadajúceho lepší zajtrajšok, v tvári vojaka a civilistu, ktorí sa modlia za návrat domov, alebo starca a dieťaťa, ktorí kráčajú ruka v ruke, slobodne a bezpečne. Poukazuje na konkrétne kroky, aby sme prostredníctvom nádeje vybudovali lepší svet a zároveň čelili veľkým výzvam budúcnosti, ako je rozvoj umelej inteligencie a dôsledky klimatických zmien.
Staňme sa teda pútnikmi nádeje, ktorá nám dáva silu vkročiť do neistej budúcnosti a kráčať vo svetle. Pretože nádej nikdy nesklame.
Duchovné a výchovné spisy Jána Bosca
Svätý Ján Bosco začal svoju pastoračnú činnosť na predmestí Turína. Chudobným mladým ľuďom, ktorí navštevovali oratórium a potrebovali úplne všetko, navrhol jednoduchý spôsob kresťanského života, vďaka ktorému sa mohli stať „potechou príbuzných, cťou vlasti, dobrými občanmi na zemi, aby sa potom jedného dňa stali šťastnými obyvateľmi neba“. Zrodila sa škola mladíckej svätosti, ktorá prinášala ovocie.
O dvadsať rokov neskôr so založením Saleziánskej kongregácie sa obzor dona Bosca rozšíril. Jeho duchovné učenie sa prehĺbilo a stalo sa zásadnejším, komplexnejším. Ale práve v tomto pohybe, ktorý zdôrazňoval absolútny primát Boha a požiadavky jeho nasledovania, sa jasnejšie vynorila aj podstata tej „jednoduchej“ duchovnej ponuky, ktorú dal don Bosco mladým ľuďom z prvého oratória. Ostáva vyjadrená obyčajným, neprikrášleným a každodenným jazykom.
Cieľom tejto antológie je uviesť čitateľa do atmosféry oratória, umožniť mu vstúpiť do vnútorných perspektív dona Bosca, oboznámiť ho s jeho duchovným učením a jazykom. Nie je to súhrnné predstavenie jeho spirituality, ale zbierka „ponaučení“, ako má žiť dobrý kresťan a dobrý salezián.
Kniha sa skladá zo štyroch častí:
1. Don Bosco, duchovný vodca mladých;
2. Usmernenia pre kresťanský život;
3. Zasvätení Bohu na jeho slávu a na spásu mladých;
4. Záverečné odporúčania otca a obavy zakladateľa.

Christ, Crime, and Moral Judgment
After a career of teaching law, ethics, and the relationship between criminal activity and the moral imperative, Charles Nemeth wants to revisit the post-modern 'caricature' of the God who is so loving and merciful that one overlooks the urgency of the human requirement to be good at all times. Nemeth traces the modern shift in considering God as judge to the God who just wants to wipe away tears. If we look in Scripture, there are harsh words for the person who dismisses moral action as less than a continual call to evaluation and conversion. One also sees the detrimental effect of granting political underpinnings to all interpretations of the Bible and its indications of what righteous action is. Nemeth asserts that not only is the measure of law worthless without a kind of hardness toward offenders, but charity itself has no backbone without justice. Restoration requires judgment, but the Judge who speaks harshly is the one who cultivates the desire for his softness. Post-modern scholars don't worry about receiving God's mercy, but they really ought to define the parameters of human responsibility. Any human attempt to define mercy and compassion on the part of God will always fall short, we ought to save our energies to live up to the moral life and take Christ as a perfect example and proof of the possibility.

Embodied Holiness
As embodied, soul and body beings, Christians are commanded to glorify God in our bodies (1 Cor 6:20) and called to obedience in both spiritual and physical matters. Still, the overarching Christian tendency is to misunderstand embodiment, which often manifests in elevating the soul and devaluing the body. This hierarchical thinking reveals itself in activities that downplay the body?s worth, a longstanding issue with Gnostic roots that Paul tackled in the Corinthian church. His countermeasure against the licentious behavior of these anti-body believers was to highlight Trinitarian involvement with the body. This view was meant to correct misconceptions about the body?s value and provide a foundation that prescribes God-honoring behaviors. By this same foundation today, believers can confront body-neglecting behaviors within the church and body-denying beliefs in the culture, all of which are rooted in neo-Gnosticism. Therefore, this book will consider a variety of arguments to build the case that the body matters to God, a fundamental recognition that drives his children towards embodied holiness as lights in a disembodied, dark world.
Theology on the Run
Writing a study in apocalyptic pastoral theology may sound like an exercise in "performative self-contradiction." But such an endeavor reminds us that the imminent expectation of the Lord's return, a pervasive hope in the first generation of the Jesus movement, is not an embarrassing, superfluous doctrine of little value to ordinary Christian life. Against the assumptions of many in the guild of New Testament studies, it was not Paul but Jesus himself who first gave Christian theology its apocalyptic urgency. From its very beginnings, then, Christian theology was "theology on the run." This was true for Paul, who penned his correspondence to Thessalonica while literally "on the run" from the city. Joining a long line of readers of these letters, Jamie Davies explores how Paul's eschatological conviction, together with convictions about epistemology and cosmology, constituted his "apocalyptic DNA," shaping every aspect of his thinking and practice. Through study of these contours of Paul's apocalyptic thought, Theology on the Run brings forward Paul in pastoral mode as he addresses the challenges of life in the "real world" of the fledgling Thessalonian church. A consideration of what Paul's apocalyptic thought might mean for his work as a practical and pastoral theologian in first-century Macedonia, concerned with planting and sustaining faithful churches in tumultuous times, presents a compelling argument for how and why those engaged in the ministry of the church today, and those who teach them, need an appreciation of Paul's apocalyptic pastoral theology in our own efforts to do "theology on the run." Readers of Paul often cite Ernst Käsemann's maxim that apocalyptic eschatology was the "mother of Christian theology." To this Davies adds another: "Christian ethics is lived-out eschatology." At the center of any account of ethics, of which pastoral theology is part, is the question of metaphysics—what is the "real world"? In the Thessalonian letters we see Paul bringing the apocalyptic reality of the new creation to bear on the pastoral situation in Thessalonica, facing challenges of grief, work, sex, truth, power, and oppression—enduring challenges for the church today. Paul meets these challenges by reframing them according to his apocalyptic gospel. As such, he demonstrates a pastoral theology that challenges us to think beyond Christian glosses on human philosophic traditions or social-psychological practices through the unbreakable relationship between this apocalyptic gospel and ministerial practice.
Gospel Birth Narratives and Historiography
Scholars today tend to view the birth narratives of Jesus as substantially less reliable than the rest of the canonical Gospel accounts. Indeed, many recent studies of the historical Jesus pass over his birth altogether or provide only scant commentary. A primary reason for this skepticism is intent oriented: ancient birth narratives (so the argument goes) were meant to be legendary, not historical, and so the Gospel birth narratives, too, should be understood as essentially legendary. Caleb Friedeman challenges this skepticism and argues that ancient birth narratives—including the accounts of Matthew and Luke—were intended to be historical. The core argument of Gospel Birth Narratives and Historiography proceeds along three lines: (1) The Gospels are ancient biographies. (2) In ancient biographies, birth narratives were not intended to be legendary but historical. (3) Therefore, the Gospel birth narratives are not intended to be legendary but historical. Part 1 examines birth material in a representative sample of ancient biographies from the works of Cornelius Nepos, Philo of Alexandria, Plutarch, and Suetonius. In each case, Friedeman demonstrates that the writer presents his birth material with historiographic intent (e.g., citing sources, noting differences between sources, evaluating the truth of sources, etc.). To show that the samples are not biased, Friedeman provides a summary chart for each author that details historiographic features in both the birth material and non-birth material of their biographies. Part 2 turns to the Gospel birth narratives to consider how the historiographic nature of birth narratives in ancient biography should shape our reading of Matthew 1–2 and Luke 1–2. The overarching aim of Gospel Birth Narratives and Historiography is not so much to argue that the Gospel birth narratives are historically true as that they are meant to be historically true. Friedeman thus reframes the discussion of Gospel birth narratives and historiography and in so doing opens a previously closed horizon for historical Jesus scholarship.
Deuteronomy
Deuteronomy maps out the whole of biblical theologyJ. Gary Millar shows how Moses's sermons in Deuteronomy highlight God's past and future faithfulness for God's people. As the rhetorical climax of the Pentateuch, Deuteronomy calls God's people to choose life in him and believe that he has already given us everything we need. In Deuteronomy, Moses preaches the gospel. The Evangelical Biblical Theology Commentary (EBTC) series locates each biblical book within redemptive history and illuminates its unique theological contributions. All EBTC volumes feature informed exegetical treatment of the biblical book and thorough discussion of its most important theological themes in relation to the canon--all in a style that is useful and accessible to students of Scripture.
