Book Description
In this definitive study, the issues of the Assembly, its historical context and its great influence on subsequent events are explored in unprecedented detail and with a finely balanced historical judgment. The systematic use of all the original source material sheds a great deal of light on the Assembly For example, the interplay between religion and politics in the Assembly in the context of the political struggles of the English Civil War, is seen to be of crucial importance to any fundamental understanding of the Assembly itself. Professor Paul contends that the issues which gave rise to the Assembly, the Grand Debate between rival Presbyterian and Congregational forms of government, are very much alive today, and essential background to current ecumenical thinking.

Throughout the year, readers proclaim and assemblies hear the words of the prophets in the liturgy. Who were they and what made them so urgent? This brief but deep and sympathetic introduction to the prophets will help readers proclaim the prophets’ words with more empathy and understanding. It will fascinate Bible study and Scripture sharing groups, and it will help interested assembly members appreciate more fully the meaning of the prophets’ messages—for their audience and for us.

Book Description
How did Paul's term ekklesia formulate the Christian self-understanding? Young-Ho Park finds the answer in its strong civic connotation in the politico-cultural world of the Greek East under the Roman Empire. By addressing his local Gentile congregation as ekklesia in his letters, Paul effectively created a symbolic universe in which the Christ-worshippers saw themselves as the honorable citizens who represented the city before God.

The publication of the King James version of the Bible, translated between 1603 and 1611, coincided with an extraordinary flowering of English literature and is universally acknowledged as the greatest influence on English-language literature in history. Now, world-class literary writers introduce the book of the King James Bible in a series of beautifully designed, small-format volumes. The introducers' passionate, provocative, and personal engagements with the spirituality and the language of the text make the Bible come alive as a stunning work of literature and remind us of its overwhelming contemporary relevance.
