The Scribe Who Has Become A Disciple: Identifying And Becoming The Ideal Reader Of The Biblical Canon, Ched E. Spellman Apr 2016

The Scribe Who Has Become A Disciple: Identifying And Becoming The Ideal Reader Of The Biblical Canon, Ched E. Spellman

Biblical and Theological Studies Faculty Publications

The literary notion of “implied reader” invokes a series of hermeneutically significant questions: What is it? Who produces it? and How can it be identified? These questions naturally lead to a further query: What is the relationship between this implied reader of a text and an actual reader of a text? This type of study is often associated primarily with reader-response theory and purely literary approaches. However, the concept can help uncover an often-neglected aspect of biblical interpretation, namely, the role of the reader.

This article proposes six strategies for the effective communication of Job in the twenty-first century.

Jesus Is Our Jubilee... But How? The Ot Background And Lukan Fulfillment Of The Ethics Of Jubilee, Christopher R. Bruno Mar 2010

Jesus Is Our Jubilee... But How? The Ot Background And Lukan Fulfillment Of The Ethics Of Jubilee, Christopher R. Bruno

Biblical and Theological Studies Faculty Publications

In the contemporary Christian church, one does not need to look far to find references to the biblical Jubilee. On the campus of Wheaton College, the World Christian Fellowship sponsors a yearly Jubilee week, in which students are challenged to think globally about the world Christian movement. A branch of a local charitable organization is called the “Jubilee Furniture Company.” This group raises funds for Christian outreach through the re-sale of furniture and supplies needy families with home furnishings. An internet search will lead one to the Jubilee Christian Church, the Jubilee Christian Academy, and even the Jubilee Water Park …

A Response To Marriage Made In Eden: A Pre-Modern Perspective For A Post-Christian World, John Tarwater Oct 2004

A Response To Marriage Made In Eden: A Pre-Modern Perspective For A Post-Christian World, John Tarwater

Business Administration Faculty Publications

In their most recent work on marriage, Alice Mathews and Gay Hubbard—professor and guest lecturer at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary respectively—explore Godʼs design and purpose for marriage. Having received positive reviews from several leading evangelical scholars, such as Stanley Grenz, Gordon Fee, and Vernon Grounds, Marriage Made in Eden warrants considerable attention. Because Mathews and Hubbardʼs book represents a significant argument supporting egalitarianism, it also deserves a serious response. In this article, I will concentrate my analysis on the bookʼs contribution as it relates to the role of women, which appears to be the driving issue for the authors. I will …
