An Examination Of The Theology Of Blessing As Found In The Book Of Job, Charles Fox
An Examination Of The Theology Of Blessing As Found In The Book Of Job, Charles Fox
Master of Sacred Theology Seminar Papers
The true blessing that we find in Job, as we will see, is a far different matter! In this paper on blessing as revealed to us in the book of Job I will examine the Hebrew words used there for blessing; the conveyor, content, cause, and purpose of blessing; Job's theological shift; and finally the theology of blessing as revealed to us in the book of Job.
Ransomed/Redeemed - At What Price A Study Of The Λυτρον Group Of Words, Frederick Schmitt
Ransomed/Redeemed - At What Price A Study Of The Λυτρον Group Of Words, Frederick Schmitt
Master of Sacred Theology Seminar Papers
A major problem in word studies is how much of the meanings and implications found in earlier word usage carries over into later usage, or in moving from one language to another. Today when we use the words "ransom" or "redeem" many of the aspects common to their usage 200 years ago will not be inferred or understood by today's average hearer. Nor is it likely that most of the nuances of the corresponding biblical Greek and Hebrew terms for "ransom" and "redeem" would be picked up by today's audience. But was there a significant change in understanding in these …
The Reign Of Christ And The Mission Of The Church, William Eickhoff
The Reign Of Christ And The Mission Of The Church, William Eickhoff
Master of Sacred Theology Seminar Papers
This paper will explore the reign of Christ and the mission of the Church in the Book of Revelation. Specifically, it will be a study of Revelation 11:3-13. In the exegetical study of those verses, the great theme of the Church's mission will then be related to the book as a whole. First, the situation of the churches in mission will be discussed. Then a word study of the word μάρτς will be presented. The specific study of Revelation 11:3-13 will follow and finally the conclusion will draw out implications for the Church in mission today. The Church of John's …
Hermeneutical Approaches To The Isaiah Apocalypse: An Examination Of Form- And Redaction-Critical Interpretive Principles And Foundations For A New Study Of Isaiah 24-27, William Carr Jr
Master of Sacred Theology Thesis
This thesis is an exercise in detecting these underlying hermeneutical principles in the secondary literature as they have been applied to Isaiah 24-27, in relation to the three areas of investigation mentioned above: literary coherence (unity), date, and genre. Of primary interest are works produced since Anderson's watershed essay; however, since itis presupposed that the more recent researchers have relied considerably on an earlier scholarly tradition, it will be necessary to trace present principles to previous principals, especially of Isaiah studies, Bernhard Duhm, and of form criticism, Hermann Gunkel.
Orality As The Key To Understanding Apostolic Proclamation In The Epistles, Thomas Winger
Orality As The Key To Understanding Apostolic Proclamation In The Epistles, Thomas Winger
Doctor of Theology Dissertation
Redaction criticism and its modern successors in the literary field, while they give more credit to the text and the author, have at the same time mired the academy again into a modern mud of sources and manipulation. There is promise in certain new paths—rhetoric, reader-response, speech-act theory, methods which we will note briefly in the first chapter. But finally we must move out of the "academy" and into the church. For the orality of Scripture is not just about its origin but also about its use and purpose. The Scriptures are a liturgical piece. They belong not on the …
The Tearing Of The Temple Veil And The Death Of Jesus In The Gospel Of Luke, Douglas Stowe
The Tearing Of The Temple Veil And The Death Of Jesus In The Gospel Of Luke, Douglas Stowe
Master of Sacred Theology Thesis
Luke's presentation of the death of Jesus is markedly different from that of Matthew and Mark. Both Matthew and Mark, on the one hand, follow the same narrative sequence. Unnatural darkness covers the land at noontime. At the ninth hour Jesus cries, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" After this the observers around the cross offer him sour wine, and he dies with a great shout. Then, the temple curtain is tom from top to bottom, and a centurion makes a confession (Mt 27:45-54; Mk 15:33-39).1On the other hand, Luke's narrative orders the events this way: first, …
