SPCK Publishing Paul and the Faithfulness of God
Book SynopsisA masterly exposition of Paul's thought by one of his leading contemporary interpreters. The summation of a lifetime's study, this landmark book offers an unparalleled wealth of detailed insights into Paul's life, times and enduring impact. Destined to become the point of reference in Pauline studies for the next decade, and beyond.Trade ReviewTom Wright's long-awaited full-length study of St Paul will not in any way disappoint the high expectations that surround it. From the very first sentence, it holds the attention, arguing a strong, persuasive, coherent and fresh case, supported by immense scholarship and comprehensive theological intelligence. It is a worthy successor to his earlier magisterial studies of the themes of the Kingdom and the Resurrection: lively, passionate and deeply constructive, laying out very plainly the ways in which the faith of the New Testament is focused on God's purpose to re-create, through the fact of Jesus crucified and risen, our entire understanding of authority and social identity. * Rowan Williams, Master of Magdalene College, Cambridge *

Random House USA Inc The New Testament
Book SynopsisJohn Drury's clear, marvelously erudite, and richly detailed introduction to the Everyman's Library edition of The New Testament reminds us why the King James Version, first published in 1611, has been the favorite of English readers for centuries. Despite a plethora of new translations in the second half of the twentieth century, the King James Version retains its power and appeal because it has the intrinsic value of a classic and is an enduring masterpiece.Drury outlines the fascinating history of this magisterial translation, marveling at the patient generosity with which the translators sifted through and distilled a century of previous scholarship. He points out that their work has endured not only because of the astonishing care they took to reflect faithfully the syntax of the original Hebrew and Greek–which enabled them to dispense with the densely entangled prose style that characterized English writing at the time–but also because of their conce

Oxford University Press Who Chose the Gospels
Book SynopsisThe Bible contains four Gospels which tell the story of Jesus of Nazareth. And yet, many more Gospels once existed. Who, then, determined which Gospels would, for the next two thousand years, serve as the main gateways to Jesus and his teaching? Recent books and films have traced the decision to a series of fourth-century councils and powerful bishops. After achieving victory over their rivals for the Christian name, these key players, we are now told, conspired to ''rewrite history'' to make it look like their version of Christianity was the original one preached by Jesus and his apostles: the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John became the prime tools for their re-sculpting of the Christian story, leading to the destruction of previously treasured writings like the Gospels of Judas, Mary, and Thomas. Are the four canonical Gospels, then, in the Bible as the result of a great, ecclesiastical conspiracy? Or does this explanation itself represent another ''rewriting of history'', thTrade ReviewA short review cannot do justice to the depth and quality of this work. For anyone who has to deal with the issue of why we have the four canonical Gospels in some detail, this is essential material. ... This book is very good value for a hardback and is therefore to be highly recommended. * Mark Burkill, Churchman *Table of ContentsIntroduction: Drowning in a Sea of Gospels ; 1.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Maidens, Magic and Martyrs in Early Christianity:
Book SynopsisIn this work, Jan N. Bremmer aims to bring together the worlds of early Christianity and those of ancient history and classical literature - worlds that still all too rarely interlock. Contextualising the life and literature of the early Christians in their Greco-Roman environment, he focusses on four areas. A first section looks at more general aspects of early Christianity: the name of the Christians, their religious and social capital, prophecy and the place of widows and upper-class women in the Christian movement. Second, the chronology and place of composition of the early apocryphal Acts of the Apostles and Pseudo-Clementines are newly determined by paying close attention to their doctrinal contents, but also, innovatively, to their onomastics and social vocabulary. The author also analyses the frequent use of magic in the Acts and explains the prominence of women by comparing the Acts to the Greek novel. Third, an investigation into the theme of the tours of hell suggests a new chronological order, shows that the Christian tours were indebted to both Greek and Jewish models, and illustrates that in the course of time the genre dropped a large part of its Jewish heritage. The fourth and final section concentrates on the most famous and intriguing report of an ancient martyrdom: the Passion of Perpetua. It pays special attention to the motivation and visions of Perpetua, which are analyzed not by taking recourse to modern theories such as psychoanalysis, but by looking to the world in which Perpetua lived, both Christian and pagan. It is only by seeing the early Christians in their ancient world that we might begin to understand them and their emerging communities.

Tyndale House Publishers Insights On 1 2 Corinthians
Book SynopsisCorinth, a diverse, cosmopolitan city sitting at a strategic center of commerce for both Greece and the wider Roman Empire, was known for its decadence and wealth. In his commentary on 1 and 2 Corinthians, Chuck Swindoll explores how Paul took the Corinthian church to task for taking on the character of the city instead of the character of Christ. As Chuck shows, the message of Paul to the Corinthians is greatly needed by the Church today.The 15-volume Swindoll's Living Insights New Testament Commentary series draws on Gold Medallion Awardwinner Chuck Swindoll's 50 years of experience studying and preaching God's Word. His deep insight, signature easygoing style, and humor bring a warmth and practical accessibility not often found in commentaries.Each volume combines verse-by-verse commentary, charts, maps, photos, key terms, and background articles with practical application.

Manar Al-Athar The Garima Gospels
Book SynopsisManuscripts preserved in a monastery in the Tigray Region of northern Ethiopia, and according to legend written and partly illuminated by the Ethiopian missionary Abbu Garima, who arrived in Ethiopia in 494 CE: this is the first book to present all the illuminated pages with comparative materials. 300+ col illus and preface by Michael Gervers.Trade Review‘The meticulous scholarship in evidence throughout The Garima Gospels is worthy of the series in which it appears. Lavishly illustrated volume, with its 268 colour pictures and fifty-two full-page plates. J. K. Elliott, TLS 2 June 2017 ‘Judith McKenzie (with her colleagues) takes the reader through this scholarly fest with a sure touch and with justified enthusiasm. Here is the evidence for a spread of a late classical art with deep roots in the great Hellenistic cities of the East – most notably Alexandria – for whose existence she has long been a passionate advocate.’ Peter Brown, NYRB May 2017 'It's not every day that scholars discover new Bible Manuscripts from the ancient world. It's ever rarer to discover new ones endowed with luxurious painted images. Yet this is preceisely what has happened over the past decade thanks to groundbreaking research into three ancient codices from Ethiopia. 'To put the discovery in perspective, the Abba Garima manuscripts are among the very oldest illustrated Gospels in the world. 'Although the three manuscripts show abundant parallesl to the arts of the wider late antique world, they also demonstrate in dazzling fashion the vitaility of local culture in Ethiopia itself. In fact, their beauty and sophistication suggest that these were not the first fruits of a traditiona bout to blook, but the mature efforts of a tradition that had already been flowering for generations. We owe McKenzie, Watson, and their team a great debt for making these codices accessible to the general public. Their fine volume will hopefully serve as a stimulus for further research on ancient Ethiopia more broadly, a great crossroads of culture whos significance to world history we are only beginning to appreciate.' Christian C. Sahner, Research Fellow in History, St John's College, University of Cambridge, Marginalia March 2017 'A magnificent study.' Christopher Howse, The Telegraph December 2016 'The group of early Christian illuminated manuscripts known as the Garima Gospels -- written in an old Ethiopic translation of the Bible -- are among the very earliest and most important illustrated Christian books. They have never been published in a properly illustrated edition before, nor with a sound scholarly introduction and discussion such as presented here. Judith McKenzie and Francis Watson's remarkable publication of Michael Gervers' photographs is not only the first fundamental presentation of this immensely important set of visual and textual materials, but it is also a record of the state of the manuscript at the moment of its discovery by contemporary scholarship. The volume is a landmark in early Christian studies and in late antique art history.' Jas Elsner, Professor of Late Antique Art, University of Oxford 'How many movable objects have been in use ever since late Antiquity, in the same place they were produced? The battered and well-thumbed Garima Gospels may never have left the sequestered Ethiopian monastery where they still reside -- and which no woman may enter. The English artist Beatrice Playne first noticed them in 1948 (they were carried out for her to inspect). She perceptively compared them with the Syriac Rabbula Gospels of 586 in Florence. Now Judith McKenzie has taken the lead in publishing and discussing all the illustrated folios for the first time, while Francis Watson's analysis of the canon tables drives home the point that images should not be studied in isolation from the texts they adorn. This attractive and learned book will at last ignite informed debate about one of the most important manuscripts to have survived from Antiquity.'

Smithsonian Books The Jefferson Bible, Smithsonian Edition: The
Book SynopsisThe Jefferson Bible, or The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth as it is formally titled, was Thomas Jefferson's effort to extract what he considered the pertinent doctrine of Jesus by removing sections of the New Testament containing supernatural aspects as well as perceived misinterpretations he believed had been added by the Four Evangelists. Using a razor, Jefferson cut and arranged selected verses from the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John in chronological order, mingling excerpts from one text to those of another in order to create a single narrative. After completion of The Life and Morals, about 1820, Jefferson shared it with a number of friends, but he never allowed it to be published during his lifetime. The most complete form Jefferson produced was inherited by his grandson, Thomas Jefferson Randolph, and was published in 1895 by the National Museum in Washington.Once published in black-and-white facsimile by the Government Printing Office in 1900 as a gift for new members of Congress, the Jefferson Bible has never before been published in color in its complete form. The Jefferson Bible, Smithsonian Edition is an exact facsimile reproduction based on the original copy in the Smithsonian collections. The Jefferson Bible, Smithsonian Edition is as beautiful an object as was so painstakingly crafted by Thomas Jefferson himself.

Book SynopsisBelievers in the early church scattered across the Roman Empire were facing the threat of increased persecution. Peter, the most outspoken of the disciples and leader among the apostles, wrote two practical and encouraging letters to strengthen the hearts of these followers of Christ. Pastor John MacArthur will take you through these two letters, passage by passage, so that you can better understand Peter''s words of hope and wisdom and how to live victoriously in the midst of life-threatening trials.In the first letter, Peter reminds believers of the many blessings available to them because of their persecution. In the second letter, he warns them to discern and defeat the false teachers who were invading their churches and teaching them dangerous and deceptive doctrines. Peter''s letters of encouragement and warning are just as important for believers today as they were during the first century.—ABOUT THE SERIES—The MacArthu

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Jesus: Ein Versuch zu begreifen
Book SynopsisIn engem exegetischen Anschluß an das Markusevangelium - ergänzt durch Bergpredigt, Vaterunser und Seligpreisungen (Mt) - erarbeitet Joachim Ringleben ein systematisch-theologisches Verständnis von Jesu Weg von der Taufe bis zur Passion. Dabei finden Jesu Sohnesbewußtsein, seine Reich-Gottes-Verkündigung, sein Verhältnis zum Alten Testament, die Heilungen, sein Gebet und seine Gleichnisse sowie seine Selbstverortung zwischen Schöpfung und Eschatologie (mit Ausblick auf die Auferstehung) besondere Berücksichtigung.Joachim Ringleben stellt drei systematische Hauptthesen auf und stellt deren Ergebnisse dar: Jesu sprachlich vermitteltes Selbstverständnis dient der Erschließung seines Gottesbewußtseins und führt zu einer radikalen Neufassung des überlieferten Gottesgedankens. In der Perspektive von Gott als dem 'Gott des Sohnes' wird Gottes Verhältnis zu diesem Menschen systematisch nachvollziehbar. Und schließlich lässt sich Jesu Gottesverhältnis theologisch als der Ort begreifen, an dem Gott sich selber hervorbringt und zu sich kommt. Damit eröffnet der Autor eine neue Anschlußmöglichkeit für die dogmatische Christologie.

The authors treat different aspects of eschatology, exploring the history of research, as well as the multiple dimensions of eschatological issues, the variety, depth, mystery and problematic nature thereof. As such this volume offers a comprehensive view of the intricacies, differences, similarities and possibilities that arise when the issue of eschatology is addressed. The centrality of the eschatological function of Jesus Christ becomes evident, but also the multiple ways in which this message was interpreted and applied by the early Church.Contributors:Cilliers Breytenbach, Ulrich Busse, Pieter G.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Geschichte des frühen Christentums: Band II: Die
Book SynopsisDer zweite Band dieser auf vier Bände ausgelegten Geschichte des frühen Christentums umfasst die eigentliche Frühzeit bis zum Apostelkonzil 48/49 n.Chr. und die Geschichte der palästinischen Judenchristen. Er beginnt mit der Neukonstitution der Jüngergemeinde in Jerusalem: ihrer Organisation und ihrem Gottesdienst, der raschen Ausbildung der Lehre (Christologie und Naherwartung) und der Weiterverkündigung der Botschaft Jesu, die das Ethos der Urgemeinde bestimmte.Martin Hengel und Anna Maria Schwemer untersuchen die Entstehung der Gemeinde der Hellenisten in Jerusalem, die Bekehrung des Cornelius und das Wirken des frühen Paulus im Zusammenhang mit dem schrittweisen Übergang zur Heidenmission.Die Gemeindegründung in Antiochien und die von hier ausgehende Mission in Syrien wird eingehend behandelt. Die Verfolgung durch Agrippa I. 42/43 n.Chr. bildet einen entscheidenden Wendepunkt, sie änderte die Lage der Urgemeinde und wirkte sich auf die paulinische Mission aus. Die Reise von Barnabas und Paulus als Antiochener Gemeindeapostel nach Zypern und in die Provinz Galatien ruft den Protest der Jerusalemer Gemeinde gegen die beschneidungsfreie Mission hervor; Kompromisse zur Beschneidungsfrage wurden beim Aposteltreffen in Jerusalem und zur Speisenfrage mit dem Aposteldekret gefunden. Der Schlussteil behandelt den Herrenbruder Jakobus, seinen Brief und sein Martyrium; die Verfolgung der palästinischen Gemeinden, die antipharisäische Polemik der Evangelien, die Birkat ha-Minim und die Ausstoßung der palästinischen Judenchristen aus der Synagoge.
