The Contribution Of Archaeology To The Interpretation Of The New Testament, Raymond F. Surburg Aug 1955

The Contribution Of Archaeology To The Interpretation Of The New Testament, Raymond F. Surburg

Concordia Theological Monthly

Archaeology is, furthermore, of great value because it relates exegesis to historical facts. Christianity is a historical religion, based upon events and experiences which transpired in history. Allegorical and symbolical interpretations often ignore the historical background of the Christian religion and lead to aberrations in religious thought. While the New Testament as a supernatural revelation harbors many elements transcending historical verification, it does nevertheless contain much material which can be determined by historical study. Thus Dana asserts: "There is no feature of the process of interpretation more important than the reconstruction of the historical situation out of which a given …

The Contribution Of Archaeology To The Interpretation Of The New Testament, Raymond F. Surburg Jul 1955

The Contribution Of Archaeology To The Interpretation Of The New Testament, Raymond F. Surburg

Concordia Theological Monthly

The pastor, the missionary, the parochial school teacher, the Sunday school and weekday school teachers, the Christian youth leaders, and others use the Bible in their respective fields of labor in the Lord's vineyard. If these Christian workers and leaders are to fulfill the intention of the divinely appointed ministry of reconciliation and accomplish the perfecting of the saints through the Word of Truth, a correct and adequate understanding of the Old and New Testament Scriptures, together with their proper application, is essential. The explanation and the application of the Word of God must rest upon a sound and self …

A Comparative Study Of The Readability Of The King James Version Of The Bible And The New Standard Revision Of The Bible, Dwight Robert Miller

Student Work

For many years a difference of opinion has existed regarding the relative reading ease of different versions of the Bible, the majority of the arguments made by the various factions have been based upon limited observation, and in no instance has experimental evidence been presented to support the contentions of any group.


A Study Of The Words Of Jesus: Let A Man Deny Himself And Follow Me--The Relationship Of Renunciation To Discipleship In The Synoptics, A Paul Meyer Jun 1955

A Study Of The Words Of Jesus: Let A Man Deny Himself And Follow Me--The Relationship Of Renunciation To Discipleship In The Synoptics, A Paul Meyer

Bachelor of Divinity

This research paper is the outgrowth of a personal struggle. The problem posed has in the past very sincerely disturbed the writer; this research has helped him personally in arriving at an answer. The writer's early background gave rise to the problem. His father had at an early age impressed him with the fact that scripture cannot but confront its reader. It is God's message. His mother was reared in a rather legalistic pietism, and this tended to influence him in a pietistic Way. The passages which caused the most mental anguish were those concerning renunciation, passages which, upon first …

The Day Of Yahweh- Its Background And Usage In Selected Prophets, Walter Emil Rast

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this study is to deal with some of the problems relevant to this broad, prophetic idea. This involves concerning ourselves, with the origin of the idea, and the form it took in the prophetic mind. As a result, we have devoted the first chapter to an investigation of certain problems connected with the origin and background of the idea. In the second and third chapters, our concern is with the concept as it unfolds itself in the prophetic books. In both these chapters, our intent is one of comparison and contrast, in seeking both common and diverse …


Anglican Christology Of The Upper Stream From '"Lux Mundi" To "Essays Catholic And Critical.", Norman Nagel Jun 1955

Anglican Christology Of The Upper Stream From '"Lux Mundi" To "Essays Catholic And Critical.", Norman Nagel

Concordia Theological Monthly

When a certain theologian was asked what in English theology would most reward study, with twinkling and Teutonic eye he replied, "They don't have any." Now it is true that the issues which have most exercised churchmen in this country do not seem to have been primarily theological One ncvcr ceases to wonder at the thousands of parish priests in the sixteenth century who found no difficulty in making do whatever new or revised prayer book happened to come to them in the post. When divisions came, they were summed up in terms more of polity than of theology.


The Concept Of Life In The Psalms Of David, Richard O. Hoyer Jun 1955

The Concept Of Life In The Psalms Of David, Richard O. Hoyer

Bachelor of Divinity

It is the purpose of this paper to show, to some extent, the Old Testament faithful's answers to these questions. It seeks to give his concept of life, what life meant to him, why he thought he was living, and what goal he thought there was in life, and in doing so, to point out that the difference in outlook between him and the New Testament Christian is a difference of language created by a differing amount of revelation, and is not a difference in the fundamental concept of life itself.


The Principals Of Christian Giving According To Second Corinthians Eight And Nine, Roland E. Grumm Jun 1955

The Principals Of Christian Giving According To Second Corinthians Eight And Nine, Roland E. Grumm

Bachelor of Divinity

This thesis is concerned with principles. Its purpose is to ascertain from Paul's dissertation what are the true guidelines for Christian giving. Drawing only from this source of stewardship teaching--the Apostle's exhortation in Second Corinthians--the basis for giving of our means to the Lord shall be established. This will entail a discussion of the "why," the reason that a Christian contributes, and the power that makes a Christian a cheerful giver. Thus the first principles will be set forth under the caption, "The Motives for Christian Giving." Included in this chapter will be a discussion of what the Apostle sets …


The Spanish Erasmian Movement Of The Sixteenth Century, Hector Lazos Jun 1955

The Spanish Erasmian Movement Of The Sixteenth Century, Hector Lazos

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of this thesis is to familiarize the readers, at least in part, with the Spanish Erasmian movement of the sixteenth century. Lutheran historical research has given much attention and study to the historical events of the sixteenth century. But when Lutheran historians study one of the movements of that century, they are prone to connect it with the German Lutheran Reformation. This might be because, as Lutherans, they are especially interested in seeing the influence that Luther and Lutheranism might have had on the religious conscience of other nations. For this reason the figure of Erasmus has been …


The New Commandment John 13:34, Earl P. Merz Jun 1955

The New Commandment John 13:34, Earl P. Merz

Bachelor of Divinity

The story is told of a visit that Bishop Ussher made to a certain Nobleman’s home. During the course of the evening meal the subject of religion was thoroughly discussed. One of the questions that, his host put to the Bishop was this: "How many commandments are there?" Without hesitation the bishop replied, "Eleven," and quoted, as an addition to the Decalogue, the passage in St. John’s Gospel that is to serve as the basis for this thesis: "A new commandment give I unto you, that ye love one another, as I have loved you, that ye also love one …

The Witness Of God With Special Reference To Hebrews 11:2, Paul Schuessler

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

That The Scriptures Might Be Fullfilled, Roy Schroeder Jun 1955

That The Scriptures Might Be Fullfilled, Roy Schroeder

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

In this thesis we want to study the concept of .fulfilment as found in the New Testament. John Marsh points out the importance of this concept when he says: “To an age which has inherited the new and refined instruments of historical study which were developed in the nineteenth century., it has become very difficult to give any intellectual, as distinct from devotional or religious, context to the concept of ‘fulfilment’ as the Bible understands it.

A Critical Study Of The Methods Of Higher Criticism, Robert F. Day May 1955

A Critical Study Of The Methods Of Higher Criticism, Robert F. Day

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Beginning with the eighteenth century and continuing to the present certain Biblical scholars segmented the Pentateuch into various documents as to its origin. They claimed the methods of inquiry and principles, by which they determined. the different sources used to write the Pentateuch, were valid. This work was known as Biblical Higher Critic ism, otherwise known as just, Higher Criticism. Conservative Biblical scholarship has thoroughly disagreed with the findings of Destructive Higher Critic ism but little has been written on the methods or principles of inquiry end their application. Most conservative attacks have been at the results rather than investigation …
