The Old Testament As Scripture Of The Church, Brevard S. Childs
The Old Testament As Scripture Of The Church, Brevard S. Childs
Concordia Theological Monthly
The author argues that the historical-critical approach to the Scripture leads to unedifying results when the practitioner fails to treat Scripture as the Book of the church, containing the record of God's unique revelation. He argues that the history of the canon has been neglected and that canonical history gives the key to understanding the nature of Scripture as the Book of the church. He concentrates on the canonical shape of the Pentateuch. Although Dr. Childs endorses the major results of the historical-critical approach to the Old Testament, he argues that the historical-critical method is neither the perfect nor the …

The Christianizing Of Abraham: The Interpretation Of Abraham In Early Christianity, Robert L. Wilken

Justification In Luther's Preaching On Luke 18:9-14, Lowell C. Green

Lutheran Conditions For Communion In Holy Things, Robert W. Jenson
Lutheran Conditions For Communion In Holy Things, Robert W. Jenson
Concordia Theological Monthly
Our question is: What conditions would have to be satisfied for Lutheran denominations to officially begin "the communion of holy things" with those with whom Lutherans do not now have such communion, in this instance, the American Episcopalians?
“The Log In Your Own Eye.", Paul G. Bretscher
“The Log In Your Own Eye.", Paul G. Bretscher
Concordia Theological Monthly
It is painful for me to write what I am about to write-about the log in the eye of my own church. I am not blind to some of the specks or even logs which concern many of my brothers. Every confusion and diffusion and diminution of the Gospel deeply disturbs me. But our first concern has to be the log in the eye of those among us who assume they are qualified to do eye surgery on their brothers. The Lord's judgment has a strange way of beginning at Jerusalem.
The Political Function Of Luther's Doctrina, James R. Preus
The Political Function Of Luther's Doctrina, James R. Preus
Concordia Theological Monthly
Theology is implicitly political; Luther’s career as theologian demonstrates this principle clearly. By attacking the papacy's doctrine, Luther attacked the framework of society in 16th-century Europe. The doctrine of faith had explosive political implications, and Luther found himself increasingly forced to place limits on the political conclusions drawn from his work by his followers, chiefly through his construction of the two-kingdoms teaching.
The Just Shall Live By Faith, Otto W. Heick
The Just Shall Live By Faith, Otto W. Heick
Concordia Theological Monthly
When did Luther reach the reformation insight into the doctrine of Justification? The author reviews the literature on the question, and brings to the attention of American readers the work of Uuras Saarnivaara, which has received little scholarly attention since its publication.
Wisdom And Law In Old Testament Wisdom Literature, Alfred Von Rohr Sauer
Wisdom And Law In Old Testament Wisdom Literature, Alfred Von Rohr Sauer
Concordia Theological Monthly
In this article the author shows how the Jewish understanding of wisdom and law changed, especially in the intertestamental period. Wisdom, under the influence of Hellenistic thought, became almost a personal mediator between God and man, although it had originally been used to describe a certain style of living. The word "law" also underwent a change from its first meaning of guidance, to a later meaning in Deuteronomy of "the revelation of Yahweh's will to Israel," to the final identification of law with wisdom as the mediator between God and His creation, including especially man.
The Relationship Between Psalm 22 And The Passion Narrative, Harvey D. Lange
The Relationship Between Psalm 22 And The Passion Narrative, Harvey D. Lange
Concordia Theological Monthly
The author suggests that Jesus' use of Ps. 22 in His cry of dereliction from the cross is best understood as an example of typological rather than rectilinear fulfillment of an Old Testament word.

The Day Of Rest In The Old Testament, Hans Walter Wolff

In this lecture we shall be concerned with essentially one question: What does the Commandment to observe the sabbath have to say to modern theological thought and to practice in the church of today?
Aspects Of Intertestamental Messianism., Ralph W. Klein
Aspects Of Intertestamental Messianism., Ralph W. Klein
Concordia Theological Monthly

Critical Methodology And The Lutheran Symbols' Treatment Of The Genesis Creation Accounts, Horace D. Hummel
Critical Methodology And The Lutheran Symbols' Treatment Of The Genesis Creation Accounts, Horace D. Hummel
Concordia Theological Monthly
We must begin by specifying what lexicon we are using. What “critical methodology” in the first place? "Critical" is, no doubt, the usual shorthand for what is commonly labelled "the historical-critical method."
New And Old In Mark 16:1-8, Robert H. Smith
New And Old In Mark 16:1-8, Robert H. Smith
Concordia Theological Monthly
One of the most difficult pericopes in the New Testament is the Easter Gospel, Mark 16:1-8, because it reports no appearance of the risen Lord, and ends with the strange words, " ... and they said nothing co any one, for they were afraid." In this article, the author summarizes and evaluates the chief solutions chat have been proposed, and then offers his own solution. On the basis of his study of the message of the Gospel and of other pertinent Biblical materials, he finds that the conclusion reflects a real appreciation of the joyful Gospel message. He also argues …
Luther On Christ And The Old Testament, James S. Preus
Luther On Christ And The Old Testament, James S. Preus
Concordia Theological Monthly
Careful reading of this article will contribute to getting the hermeneutical debate in our Synod beyond the present impasse that has been created by a non-Lutheran posing of the alternatives by so many who are involved in the debate.
Parables In The Gospel Of Thomas, William R. Schoedel
Parables In The Gospel Of Thomas, William R. Schoedel
Concordia Theological Monthly
Dr. Schoedel provides important light on a burning contemporary question concerning the authority of the Scripture. He does this by studying the attitude of an important early group of Christians to the sayings of Jesus. He concludes that the Gnostic Christians who produced the Gospel of Thomas did not hesitate to edit and change the sayings of Jesus to suit their own theological viewpoints.

Synodical Address-1848, C. F. Walther
Synodical Address-1848, C. F. Walther
Concordia Theological Monthly
(The 1848 Synodical Address of C. F. Walther, which is presented here in translation, clearly sets forth his views on the relationship between the congregations and The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. Dr. Walther's views were repeated almost verbatim in a "Brother to Brother" (Mein theurer Herr Amtsbruder} letter of Jan. 12, 1875, in which he assured the congregations of their freedom to accept or reject synodical resolutions, and then pleaded with them to "freely" accept a synodical resolution that called for a building fund collection for new construction at three synodical schools.
