Book Description
Integrating Exegesis and Exposition is a handbook introducing Biblical study (exegesis) and the communication of the Bible in preaching and teaching (exposition). This method encourages communicators to incorporate the process of Bible study into the presentation of the message, so that learners discover not only how to understand the portion of Scripture being communicated at that moment, but also so that they can develop their own skills in Bible study. The premise of Integrating Exegesis and Exposition is that the study, practice, and communication of the Bible are interconnected. The relationship between these three suggests that to encourage transformation by the renewing of the mind, communicators of the Bible ought to take a more holistic and integrated approach to handling the Bible - an approach that is modeled in the Bible itself.

Seeing the Text
Author: Mary H. Schertz
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780687091140
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
Seeing the Text integrates language study with theories and methods of interpretation. The purpose of the book is to help students increase their facility with the biblical languages while at the same time incorporating exegetical and literary skills and methods. The book thus not only provides a wider theoretical and methodological horizon for language study but also builds a solid, text-based foundation for further biblical studies. Because it is increasingly the case that seminarians do not have the opportunity to study both Greek and Hebrew, examples in both languages are included whenever possible to create a metalinguistic theoretical understanding. The book is, therefore, designed and suitable for both intermediate Hebrew students and intermediate Greek students. Finally, the book includes suggestions for using the computer to facilitate language learning and exegetical work in order to help students develop the skills necessary to sustain their language skills with the aid of computer software when they are no longer engaged in formal study.

God's Image and Global Cultures
Author: Kenneth Nehrbass
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1498239099
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
Globalization has raised numerous questions about theology and culture for Christians. How should we respond to outsourcing and immigration? How does anti-Western sentiment affect the proclamation of the gospel? What is the role of the church in society? This book argues that Christians will be most fulfilled and most effective if they embrace their cultural activity rather than feel ambivalent about it. The central question of this book is, how does bearing God's image relate to cultural activity? Nehrbass explains that "spheres of culture," such as political, technological, and social structures, are systems that God has instilled in humans as his image bearers, so that they can glorify and enjoy him forever. Therefore, a theology of culture involves recognizing that the kingdom of God encompasses heaven and Earth, rather than pitting heaven against Earth. The text surveys anthropological explanations for humanity's dependence on culture, and shows that each explanation provides only partial explanatory scope. The most satisfying explanation is that a major functional aspect of bearing God's image is engaging in culture, since the Trinity has been eternally engaged in cultural functions like ruling, communicating, and creating. Each chapter contains a summary and questions about what it means to be a world-changer in the twenty-first century.

From Ancient Text to Valid Application
Author: Josiah D. Boyd
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666725145
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
As a child needs nutrient-rich calories to grow healthily, so God’s people experience maturation through consistent, Spirit-empowered feedings from the Bible prepared by a capable, Spirit-filled chef. This is why Paul emphatically charged Timothy, an overseer of a local congregation, to unwaveringly and unrelentingly “preach the word” (2 Tim 4:1–2), a task that assumes not only Scripture’s right explanation but also its valid application. Unfortunately, while much scholarly attention has been paid to the former facet, less has been given to the latter. One homiletician, Abraham Kuruvilla (Privilege the Text! A Theological Hermeneutic for Preaching), has recently attempted to fill this void by articulating and demonstrating a methodology through which a preacher can, with confidence and clarity, lead the people of God from the word of God to its intended, and thus binding, application. This work explores the effectiveness of his proposed theology and hermeneutic for the identification, development, communication, and reception of biblically founded, theologically valid, and hearer-relevant application.

The Green Tree and the Hermeneutic Roots of Biblical Faith and Practice
Author: Christopher Cone
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781602650800
Category :
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
How one interprets the Bible goes a long way toward shaping one's worldview. The Green Tree writers compare interpretive approaches, including the theological, allegorical, spiritualization, canonical dogmatic, Reformed, complementary, redemptive movement, and literal grammatical historical. These hermeneutic comparisons consider historical characteristics and implications of each interpretive method, so that interpreters can make informed decisions about what tools they will use to understand the Bible. Ultimately, The Green Tree underscores how hermeneutics is the root system for a Biblical worldview, and proposes that there is a very particular hermeneutic method prescribed within the pages of the Bible. The Green Tree suggests that Bible interpreters do not need to wonder what methodology to employ, and can exegete confidently knowing they are following the Biblical model for interpretation.
