Old Testament Priests and the New Priest

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Vanhoye, Albert Cardinal, PUBLISHER: Gracewing, Recent decades have seen passionate debate in the Church about the nature of priesthood. Cardinal Vanhoye's classic study, originally published in English in , provides a much needed exegesis following the New Testament texts that speak of priests and priesthood. In the first century the question of priesthood was a distinct issue from that of ministries in the Church. This book identifies three series of texts about priesthood contained in the New Testament. In the first series the vocabulary of priesthood is used only in connection with Jewish priests and high priests, or - in one case only - in connection with pagan priests. In the second series, whose texts are all found together in a single piece of writing, the Epistle to the Hebrews, Christ himself is proclaimed, and with great insistence, priest and high priest, and the comparison is made between his priesthood and the old priesthood. Finally, in some other texts which make up a third series, priesthood is attributed to Christians themselves. By listening to the New Testament and being guided by the texts we share an increasing realisation of the profound meaning of priesthood. Cardinal Vanhoye does not try to impose solutions to the various problems and controversies as they arise but invites us to share an exegetical reflection that can transform our understanding. Albert Cardinal Vanhoye, SJ was born in at Hazebrouck in France. He taught at the Gregorian University and the Lateran University and, from as a professor, at the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Rome where he was Rector, . He has served as a member of the Pontifical Biblical Commission, , and as secretary . He has been a Consultor to the Sacred Congregations of Catholic Education from and of the Doctrine of the Faith from . He was created Cardinal in .

The New Testament in Cross-Cultural Perspective

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rohrbaugh, Richard L., PUBLISHER: Cascade Books, The Bible is not a Western book, and the world of the New Testament is not our world. The New Testament world was preindustrial, Mediterranean, and populated mostly by nonliterate peasants who depended on hearing these writings read aloud. Only a few of the literate elite were part of the Jesus movement, and they knew nothing of either modernity or the Western culture we inhabit today. This means that for all North Americans, reading the New Testament is always an exercise in cross-cultural communication. Travelers, diplomats, and exchange students take great pains to bridge the cultural gaps that cloud mutual understanding. But North American readers habitually suspend cross-cultural awareness when encountering the Bible. The result is that we unwittingly project our own cultural understandings onto the pages of the New Testament. Rohrbaugh argues that to whatever degree we can bridge cultural gaps between ourselves and New Testament writers, we learn to value their intentions rather than the meanings we create from their words. Rohrbaugh's insightful interpretations of Gospel passages go a long way toward helping to span distances between the New Testament world and the present.

Covenant of Peace: The Missing Peace in New Testament

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Swartley, Willard M., PUBLISHER: William B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, One would think that "peace," a term that occurs as many as a hundred times in the New Testament, would enjoy a prominent place in theological and ethical textbooks. But it is surprisingly absent. "Covenant of Peace" seeks to restore to New Testament theology and ethics the peace that many standard texts have missed. In this accessible volume, Willard Swartley explicates virtually all of the New Testament, relating peace -- and the related emphases of love for enemies, non-retaliation, and reconciliation -- to core theological themes such as salvation, Christology, and the reign of God. No other book in English makes this contribution. Swartley concludes by considering practices that lead to peacemaking and what place these might have in our contemporary world. Remedying a historical deficiency in biblical scholarship, Swartley's book beckons us to hear the compelling New Testament witness to peace. Acquista Ora

Joseph's Bones: Understanding the Struggle Between God and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Segal, Jerome M., PUBLISHER: Riverhead Books, A bold and radical reinterpretation of the Old Testament. "Brilliant...Nothing quite like it has appeared in years." (Jack Miles, author of "God: A Biography ") Imagine if someone who had never heard of Judaism or Christianity read the Old Testament. How could the relationship between God and humanity possibly be understood? In "Joseph's Bones," Segal approaches the Bible from this fresh perspective-one framed by the story of the Israelites' fidelity to Joseph-and finds something unexpected: an account of the human condition that reads like an existential novel about the struggle of mankind against the unpredictable and often unwarranted wrath of God. This is a rarity in Biblical interpretation- brilliant and rigorously argued, "a work of stunning originality."

A Student's Guide to the New Testament

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Early Ph. D., Joseph, PUBLISHER: Authorhouse, These outlines are a result of my efforts to provide Bible students with a simple skeleton of the books of the New Testament. Over the years, I have discovered that outlines help students gain a better understanding of not only the various books of the Bible, but also its various subsections, genres, and background materials. These outlines are designed for the use of college and seminary professors, Sunday school teachers, or anyone who is interested in teaching or learning about the New Testament in a straightforward, orderly manner. I hope both teachers and learners will find these outlines useful. They can easily be developed more fully, re-arranged according to theme, or separated for the study of individual books.

Surpassing Wonder: The Invention of the Bible and the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Akenson, Donald Harman, PUBLISHER: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH), With wit, elegance, and clarity, Surpassing Wonder illuminates the ancient Hebrew scriptures, the Christian "New Testament", and the Talmuds of the Rabbis by showing who wrote them, under what circumstances, and why they were given the shape they have. These works constitute the very core of our cultural consciousness and in every century have been hidden from us -- first by priests, then by fundamentalists, and now by narrow scholars. Here, with biting irreverence for prejudice and pretension, Donald Akenson renews our sense of awe before these sacred works by encountering them head-on, by setting them in their historical and political context -- and by daring to speculate that there was one author-editor of the Hebrew scriptures, and one for the Christian New Testament, and that the inventor of the Hebrew scriptures should be credited with constructing the very foundations of Western culture. He simultaneously restores their spiritual power through a just appreciation of the authors' achievement and provides a brilliant expose of how theologians and biblical scholars abuse historical reasoning and evidence in their treatment of the sacred texts. Using images that range from Winnie-the-Pooh to tractor mechanics, this world-renowned historian creates for us a radical reformation of the sacred texts as he breathes new life into our religions and helps us understand, and revere, the heritage that flows from Jerusalem.

The New Collegeville Bible Commentary includes New American Bible translation and will appeal to preachers, teachers, Bible study groups, and Bible readers.

As Reid demonstrates, this Gospel continues to bring vision and hope to Christians throughout the ages.
