A Textual Comparison Of The Isaiah Passages In The Book Of Mormon With The Same Passages In The St. Mark's Isaiah Scroll Of The Dead Sea Community, Wayne Ham

Theses and Dissertations

The Book of Mormon contains twenty-one chapters of the Book of Isaiah: two through fourteen, twenty-nine, and forty-eight through fifty-four. The language is primarily that of the King James Version with some variations. The King James Version itself has been translated from the Massoretic Hebrew Text. It is a fair assumption that the variations in the Book of Mormon represent an older, more accurate text than the Massoretic Text.

Textual critics are anxious to find ancient texts and versions of the scriptures in the hope that some of these texts may contain readings closer to the original than does the …

The Conquest Of Canaan According To Joshua And Judges, Walter R. Roehrs

Concordia Theological Monthly

Many Old Testament scholars find two opposing views regarding the Israelite conquest of Canaan in the books of Joshua and Judges. In the former the 12 tribes are represented as achieving full possession of the Promised Land through a few swift victories resulting in immediate and full occupation. In the Book of Judges, on the other hand, the process is described as gradual, beset by many reverses, and incomplete for a long time. The first, it is said, is an idealized picture; the latter is more true to the facts.

It is the purpose of this study to examine these …

To the articles appearing in the August issue of our journal, we are adding two more which likewise were read as a commemorative symposium at Concordia Seminary on April 2-21 of this year. In calling these articles to the attention of our readers, we have chosen to let Melanchthon speak to us directly from bis Loci communes, selecting some of his 33 theses, which conclude his treatise on law and Gospel.

Galatians 2:1-10 And The Acts Of The Apostles, Robert G. Hoerber

Concordia Theological Monthly

No doubt the chief crux in the comparison of Paul's Epistle to the Galatians with the Acts of the Apostles is the relating of Gal. 2:1-10 to the account of Acts. To equate Gal. 2:1-10 with Acts 15 raises such serious difficulties in the judgment of many scholars that they have proposed various explanations.

Demonology In The Old Testament, Harold W. Rast

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this study is not to argue the problem of whether demons actually existed in Old Testament times or whether they were merely mythological attempts to express the reality of evil in the universe apart from the human sphere. The purpose is to present a rapid survey of Old Testament demonology and the influence that critical and conservative scholarship have brought to bear upon demonological interpretation.

The Doctrine Of Christian Cross-Bearing In The New Testament, Carl Lutz

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

He suffers, he witnesses suffering all around him, and yet he is at a loss to define it. In church he hears a definition, but in daily life the Christian's “cross” does not seem to be any different from the afflictions experienced by the godless. The purpose of this study shall be to attempt to clarify the situation and as far as possible to define the limits and contents of the Christian's "cross."

The Message Of Koheleth And Khayyam, Herman Martin Jank

Bachelor of Divinity

The concurrent message of Ecclesiastes, or “The Preacher,” or Koheleth and the Rubaiyat of OmarKhayyam is an elusive one. Available information concerning the background of the authors and their works is meger. Interpretations and evaluations of their conclusions have reached a wide divergence in most respects.

The Satanic In St. Paul's Letters With Special Reference To False Teachers, Adrian Max Leske

Bachelor of Divinity

A vital and practical demonology is certainly necessary to sharpen our awareness of evil and the distinction between right and wrong. Our understanding of the satanic not only puts us on guard but also brings into sharp emphasis the real greatness or God's grace and deepens our trust in our Saviour. For this reason I have undertaken to investigate what St. Paul says about Satan and his followers in order to find a vital and practical demonology for our day. The reason St. Paul is chosen rather than the other New Testament writers is that he more than the other …

God's Debt To Man, Herbert Hohenstein

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

A sincere and faithful child of God is struck down by some sudden misfortune or disaster. Both the suffering saint and the world about him are often quick to ask: "God, how could You?” The obvious implication of this question is, of course: “Lord, You have slipped up in Your arithmetic. You certainly did not owe that loyal child of Yours such a crushing blow. He has been serving You faithfully and well. And now this is the way You reward him?" Such reasoning reflects the inbred conviction that God is obligated to bless us if we obey Him and …

Hermeneutica Sacra- Principles Of Old Testament Interpretation In Seventeenth-Century Lutheran Orthodoxy, Kenneth Miller

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

It therefore became apparent that it would be worthwhile to investigate the hermeneutical principles of the seventeenth-century Lutherans, and to discover what principles they employed in their commentaries and dogmatics. The aim of this investigation, then, is to discover these principles and to evaluate their validity. The questions that naturally arises are such as these: Are the methods of the Old Lutherans consistent? Are they still valid today? Is the Bible used as little more than a source of proof-texts? Did the dogmaticians of that period go too far in seeing Christian doctrines in the Old Testament? Did they make …

Testimony And Evidence In The Fourth Gospel, Julius Farup

Doctor of Theology Dissertation

The problem 'briefly stated, of which a solution will be attempted, is this: To what extent can the Fourth Gospel be relied upon as authentic and trustworthy evidence concerning the person and activity of Jesus of Nazareth? Are the accounts of His activity and teaching based on eyewitness testimony, and supported evidence showing first-hand knowledge of the facts, or are they less reliable speculations and mythical or figurative representations of ideas in the mind of the writer? Does the Fourth Gospel record the personal observations of an apostle and. other eyewitnesses, and their direct testimony concerning Jesus, human and divine, …

A Historical Critical Analysis Of Rudolf Bultmann's Form Criticism As Related To His Demythologization, Lorman Petersen

Doctor of Theology Dissertation

The primary purpose of this thesis is to delineate Bultmann's method or hermeneutics in treating the New Testament, in particular his principles of Form Criticism and Demythologization. Bultmann is a many-sided man. He has been concerned with almost every topic and emphasis which theology has to offer today. He is an exegete, theologian, historian, linguist, philosopher, preacher, lecturer, and professor. As one man has said, "He knows everything and seems to have written on most everything." A. list of his works, appended to this thesis, will support this statement. Moreover , he has never stood still, and even now some …
