The Broadman Bible Commentary
Author: Reading Psalm 145 with the Sages
Author: A. K. LamaPublisher: Langham Monographs
ISBN: 1907713352
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
Traditionally, the Psalms have been read in reference to their historical context. This publication suggests to read a psalm in its literary context and with reference to the editorial intent of its placement in the Psalter. The author proposes that such reading brings holistic richness in our understanding of the thematic patterns underscored in individual psalms. The study analyzes Psalm 145, a unique Davidic psalm, providing the reader with an in-depth understanding to the purpose of its placement.

Forming Prophetic Literature
Author: James W. WattsPublisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 0567115194
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
These essays are written in honour of John D.W. Watts, formerly Professor of Old Testament at Southern Baptist Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky and Old Testament editor of the Word Biblical Commentary, well known for his contributions, especially to scholarship on the prophetic books. Accordingly, the essays here address the literary, redactional and canonical questions posed by the Hebrew Bible's prophetic literature. The prophetic books have defied easy classification according to genre or facile explanation of their historical development. With a special focus on the books of Isaiah and of the Twelve Prophets, the nature and formation of prophecy as literature is probed from a variety of methodological standpoints, including textual criticism, synchronic literary analysis, tradition history and redaction criticism.

What does Scripture reveal about fasting? Is fasting to bring power? Is fasting to discipline the body? Is it an act of repentance and humility? Or does biblical fasting promise all of these? To help all believers understand fasting by the criterion of the Scriptures is the goal of this book. The author has examined every biblical account of fasting, as well as many other sources and testimonies on fasting, to search out God's true intent for believers today.
Esther
Author: Charles R. SwindollPublisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 1418515469
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
Everyone loves a transformation story. Rags to riches. Plain to beautiful. Weak to strong. Esther's story is that, but it is much more. It is a thought-provoking study of God's invisible hand writing silently and unseen across the pages of human history. Perhaps most of all, Esther's story is the account of godly attributes like courage, dignity, wisdom, and strength?attributes that blocked an evil plot, overthrew an arrogant killer, and replaced terror with joy in thousands of Jewish homes. Author Chuck Swindoll interweaves the ancient, real-life story with insight not only into the virtues of Queen Esther, but also into how the qualities that formed and empowered her can be ours. Esther is the second volume of Charles Swindoll's best-selling series, which examines great lives from God's Word and reveals the strengths and weaknesses that make God's men and women both great . . . and human. Many of the most beloved biblical heroes were ordinary folks. Shepherds. Fishermen. Servants. Widows. Even harlots and petty thieves. One by one, they changed the course of history. Swindoll explains that these men and women did not become great in their own strength but were empowered by God when they surrendered their lives to Him. To live such a life that God considers great is within the reach of everyone who submits to Him.
