Exegeting Scripture, Exegeting Culture: Combining Exegesis To Fulfill God's Calling, Shawn P. Behan
Exegeting Scripture, Exegeting Culture: Combining Exegesis To Fulfill God's Calling, Shawn P. Behan
The Asbury Journal
Seminary has separated biblical exegesis from cultural exegesis, teaching them in different programs and seldom requiring them for those ...we need both – they are mutually building and supporting entities that only make sense when combined with the other. As teachers, preachers, and leaders of God’s Church, it is essential that we learn how to combine these two exegetical processes in order to faithfully live out our calling in God’s kingdom. Thus, we must study both biblical and cultural exegesis and learn how to combine the two; for one without the other is knowledge, but combined they form knowledge with …

Caring For The Sufferers Among Us: Job 3 Through The Lens Of Classical Rhetorical Theory And Modern Psychological Trauma Studies, Abbie F. Mantor
The Asbury Journal
A lack of engagement with the theology of evil and suffering leads to immature responses when tragedy strikes our congregations and alienates the sufferers among us. I believe the best path forward is an interdisciplinary approach that is both intellectually honest and spiritually ...classical rhetorical studies and modern psychological trauma theories in order to demonstrate how Job’s deep lament offers the Church an example of how to give sufferers the space to work through their grief as they walk their path towards healing and hope.
Prophetic Peace In The Epistle To The Romans: Intertextuality, Isaianic Discourse, And Romans 14:17, Dain Alexander Smith
Prophetic Peace In The Epistle To The Romans: Intertextuality, Isaianic Discourse, And Romans 14:17, Dain Alexander Smith
The Asbury Journal
Interpreters of Romans have not recognized the Isaianic character of Paul’s description of the kingdom in Rom 14:17. Therefore, in this paper I demonstrate that there is an intertextual relationship between multiple Isaianic texts and Rom 14:17. First, I identify key texts in Isaiah that depict kings or kingdoms and share terms found in Romans: righteousness, peace, joy, good, and spirit. Second, I conclude by rereading Romans 14:17 in dialogue with Isaianic kingdom texts. This reading reveals that Romans presents the kingdom of God—and the church community
Women On The Outside Looking In: Rahab And Ruth As Foreign Converts To The People Of God, Kelly J. Danielson
Women On The Outside Looking In: Rahab And Ruth As Foreign Converts To The People Of God, Kelly J. Danielson
The Asbury Journal
How does an outsider become an insider? This is a question that emerges from considering both the modern immigrant situation and the unique situation of non-Israelite women becoming part of the people of God in the Old Testament. The usual pattern in the Old Testament is to be born into the people of Israel, but for men there is the possibility to become part of the covenantal people through the physical act of circumcision. In this patriarchal society, women usually had no choice but to follow the decisions of their husbands. But what if there was no husband? The Bible …

Mujeres Desde Afuera Mirando Hacia Adentro: Rahab Y Rut Como Conversas Extranjeras Al Pueblo De Dios, Kelly J. Godoy De Danielson
The Asbury Journal
¿Cómo se convierte una persona de afuera en una persona de adentro? Esta es una pregunta que surge al considerar tanto la situación moderna del inmigrante moderno como la situación única de las mujeres no israelitas que se convierten en parte del pueblo de Dios en el Antiguo Testamento. El patrón habitual en el Antiguo Testamento es nacer en el pueblo de Israel, pero para los hombres existe la posibilidad de convertirse en parte del pueblo del pacto a través del acto físico de la circuncisión. En esta sociedad patriarcal, las mujeres generalmente no tenían más remedio que seguir las …
