Book Description
Deuteronomy is a book about a community being prepared for a new life. Hardship and the wilderness lie behind; the promised land lies ahead. But in the present moment, there is a call for a new commitment to God and a fresh understanding of the nature of the community of God's people. Though the scene is set more than three thousand years in the past, Deuteronomy is still a book of considerable contemporary relevance. The book of Deuteronomy, however, is not only a book of contemporary relevance. It has been, and continues to be, one of the most important and debated works in modern biblical scholarship. - Author's preface.

Justice for All
Author: Jeremiah Unterman
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 0827613261
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 420
Book Description
Justice for All demonstrates that the Jewish Bible, by radically changing the course of ethical thought, came to exercise enormous influence on Jewish thought and law and also laid the basis for Christian ethics and the broader development of modern Western civilization. Jeremiah Unterman shows us persuasively that the ethics of the Jewish Bible represent a significant moral advance over Ancient Near East cultures. Moreover, he elucidates how the Bible's unique conception of ethical monotheism, innovative understanding of covenantal law, and revolutionary messages from the prophets form the foundation of many Western civilization ideals. Justice for All connects these timeless biblical texts to the persistent themes of our times: immigration policy, forgiveness and reconciliation, care for the less privileged, and attaining hope for the future despite destruction and exile in this world.

Discerning Welcome
Author: Ellen Clark Clemot
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666708925
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
Welcoming the undocumented resident refugee into the life of the polis is a challenge for some communities and a moral imperative for others. This books provides a Christian ethic for church leaders, congregants, and their churches to discern a way of welcoming their neighbors who are refugees residing in the US without authorization. Grounded in political theology and the Presbyterian-Reformed faith tradition, the ethical debates presented here and the legal overview of US immigration and alienage laws applicable to the undocumented resident lead to practices of worship, witness, and welcome for churches that can be tailored to different contexts. When Jesus challenged the sharp lawyer to love his neighbor as himself, the lawyer asked Jesus: “who is my neighbor?” Jesus responded by telling him the parable of the Good Samaritan. Then Jesus asked the lawyer: “who was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of the robbers?” And the crestfallen lawyer answered: “the one who showed him mercy.” Jesus told him “to go and do likewise.” This book assists faith communities to find mercy for those undocumented refugee neighbors who many would condemn. It points a path towards doing the “likewise” of mercy in ethically defensible ways.
