The Secret Of God's Plan: Studies In Ephesians Part Three, Martin H. Scharlemann
The Secret Of God's Plan: Studies In Ephesians Part Three, Martin H. Scharlemann
Concordia Theological Monthly
Our first study in Ephesians in the present series dealt with the content of God's eternal plan of redemption. The second study was devoted to the implementation of the mystery of God's will. In this third part we must turn to a consideration of the opposition to what Luther called the "good and gracious will of God."

The Secret Of God's Plan: Studies In Ephesians Part Two, Martin H. Scharlemann
The Secret Of God's Plan: Studies In Ephesians Part Two, Martin H. Scharlemann
Concordia Theological Monthly
In our previous study we attempted to depict the content of God's secret plan and the structure of what we chose to call the overture to Ephesians (1:3-14). We noted how the opening verses of this epistle anchored the "mystery of God's will" in Christ as the manifestation of the divine purpose at work in history. We referred to this intent as a "secret," partly because there was a time at which the final purpose of God's activity had not yet been revealed. Now it is an open secret. It was made known first to the apostles and then, by …

The Early Dark Ages Of The Church-Some Reflections, Edgar Krentz
The Early Dark Ages Of The Church-Some Reflections, Edgar Krentz
Concordia Theological Monthly
The period of history from the Resurrection to the oldest document in the New Testament is in many ways the darkest in the history of the church. No document in the New Testament antedates the year 50, the generally agreed-on date for 1 Thessalonians. Even if we would date Galatians early, say A. D. 48/49 on the South Galatian hypothesis, we would push our knowledge back only a year and a half. The only other possible candidate for an earlier date is the Epistle of James, placed by a minority of scholars at a time prior to the Pauline Gentile …
Introducing The Apocalyptic Visions Of Daniel 7, Norman C. Habel
Introducing The Apocalyptic Visions Of Daniel 7, Norman C. Habel
Concordia Theological Monthly
The term "apocalyptic" has come to be used as a broad designation for a particular kind of literature and mode of thinking that was clearly distinguishable by the second century B. C. Rev. 1:1 uses the noun apokalypsis to define the hidden revelation communicated to John through special visions. This essay employs the term apocalyptic in the broad sense indicated above. The characteristics of apocalyptic will be defined in general terms below. The purpose of this essay is to introduce the reader to the distinctive apocalyptic thinking of the writer of Daniel 7 whose "one like a son of man" …
Erasmus The Exegete, Marvin Anderson
Erasmus The Exegete, Marvin Anderson
Concordia Theological Monthly
Erasmus appears everywhere in the theological controversies of the 16th century. Discovery in 1506 of his beloved Lorenzo Valla's New Testament Notes encouraged Erasmus to continue the task of editing, annotating, and paraphrasing the New Testament. Whatever can be said about Erasmus, his dedication to this task has earned the gratitude of generations of Christians. His latest encomium is Erasmus of Christendom. An analysis of Erasmus’ devotion to New Testament study adds depth and breadth to the philosophy of Christ. Heirs of the 16th century should ponder the life work of Erasmus in this 500th anniversary of his birth. In …
Erasmus On The Study Of Scriptures, Carl S. Meyer
Erasmus On The Study Of Scriptures, Carl S. Meyer
Concordia Theological Monthly
Erasmus (1469-1536) was the editor of the first published Greek New Testament printed from movable type (1516). He translated the books of the New Testament into Latin and also paraphrased them (except Revelation) in that language. He published the notes of Lorenzo Valla (1406-1457) on the New Testament. He must likewise be accounted as one of the important theologians of the first half of the 16th century as well as an earnest advocate of the study of Scriptures.

Methods In Studying The Biblical Text Today, John Reumann
Methods In Studying The Biblical Text Today, John Reumann
Concordia Theological Monthly
A rich variety of methods exists today for studying Scripture - text criticism, philology, literary criticism; source, form, and redaction criticism, Religionsgeschichte, and a host of other "Geschichten" - so that the Bible is probably the world's most closely and minutely studied book. But how can all these techniques be put together into a method, in the classical sense of meth' hodos, a "way" "after" something, a way for getting from one point to another, from the text to the practical goal that concerns us here, proclaiming or communicating the text today?
Old Testament Introduction, Holland H. Jones
Old Testament Introduction, Holland H. Jones
Concordia Theological Monthly
In its report, "A Lutheran Stance Toward Contemporary Biblical Studies," the Commission on Theology and Church Relations described what it considered to be ''basic and legitimate elements of the so-called historical-critical method." Since the publication of this report there has been, it seems to me, an increased interest on the part of individuals and pastoral conferences to study and apply the techniques of this interpretative method. Invitations to present studies of Biblical pericopes applying this method have multiplied. In such presentations one normally illustrates how Old Testament introductions are used in determining the literary form of a pericope and discovering …

The Secret Of God's Plan: Studies In Ephesians, Martin H. Scharlemann
Concordia Theological Monthly
Verse 9 of chapter 1 of Ephesians provides a good general tide to highlight one basic theological emphasis of the letter. There the Greek, literally translated, makes reference to "the mystery of His will." The Revised Standard Version in this case retains just that wording from the Authorized Version.
A Survey Of Trends And Problems In Biblical Interpretation, Edgar Krentz
A Survey Of Trends And Problems In Biblical Interpretation, Edgar Krentz
Concordia Theological Monthly
Any man fool enough to accept the assignment described in the title above deserves his fate. He is like the mythological traveler approaching ancient Thebes. To go forward means to meet the Sphinx and her dread riddle; to miss the answer means to be thrown headlong down a precipitous cliff and face destruction. Yet the possibility that one may deprive Oedipus of his glory by answering the riddle leads one to trudge along the dusty path under the hot sun.

The bewildered Christian, viewing the relatively recent and rapid progress of the American Negro, may ask: ''What more does the Negro want?" The black's reply to that question is likely to be, "What have you got?" Such a reply indicates the fact that a revolution becomes more demanding as the gap is narrowed. But the gap has been narrowed only in certain respects. The Negro has made gains in having but not in belonging. In fact, things seem worse in the latter area. In view of all this, the great mass of Christians is confused and inert.

Biblical Humanism And Roman Catholic Reform: (1501-1542) Contarini, Pole, And Giberti, Marvin W. Anderson

Reginald Pole deserves careful attention by students of the Reformation period. Pole delivered one and shared in a second of three confessions which assumed Roman Catholic guilt for the splintering of Christendom. Adrian VI excoriated the Curia in his Instructio of Jan. 3, 1523, read to the Diet of Nuremberg by Francesco Chieregati.

The Shape Of Hope: Jeremiah's Book Of Consolation, Theodore M. Ludwig
The Shape Of Hope: Jeremiah's Book Of Consolation, Theodore M. Ludwig
Concordia Theological Monthly
The question of the presence or absence of eschatological ideas in the prophetic writings has been debated for years, with scholars defending both positions. The question is problematic because of the difficulty of defining "eschatology" in a way that will do justice to the prophetic material. If understood strictly as a cosmic cataclysm, as a suprahistorical return to chaos followed by cosmogony, or even as the end of the present order and the beginning of a radically different order, eschatology cannot be said to have a central place in the utterances of the preexilic and exilic prophets.
The Day Of The Lord, Ralph W. Klein
The Day Of The Lord, Ralph W. Klein
Concordia Theological Monthly
What does it mean for Yahweh to have a day? Sigmund Mowinckel saw it as a day of manifestation or epiphany at the New Year's festival, including the celebration of Yahweh's kingship and His saving acts for His people. The eschatological day of Yahweh is only the final and supreme day of Yahweh's enthronement, entirely secondary to His cult day.

Interaction: Ecumenism And Confessionalism, John E. Groh
Interaction: Ecumenism And Confessionalism, John E. Groh
Concordia Theological Monthly
It is ironic that the contemporary confessional movement owes its origin, in part at least, to the ecumenical movement. Visser 't Hooft himself predicted that certain confessional and denominational retrenchments would occur after the first World Council of Churches convention at Amsterdam in 1948. Nor did he consider this a tragic development. The question of enduring significance was, what would follow next?
Principles For The Development Of Adult Premembership Instruction, Robert L. Conrad
Principles For The Development Of Adult Premembership Instruction, Robert L. Conrad
Concordia Theological Monthly
The need for a study was brought forcibly to the author's attention by his membership on a subcommittee of the Board of Parish Education of The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. The responsibility of the subcommittee is to formulate principles for adult premembership instruction in The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod. The subcommittee could find no existing statement of principles, so it was forced to make a beginning on such a formulation.

We salute the new year of God's grace with three articles that deal with time and history. Marvin W. Anderson has addressed himself to a historical question about the origins of the Lutheran Reformation with reference to philological reforms associated with the name of Lorenzo Valla. David W. Lotz looks at the understanding of history associated especially with the name of Rudolf Bultmann. Oscar Cullmann speaks to the whole question of the historical character of the Gospels and the message the church offers to the world in this day.
Laurentius Valla (1407-1457): Renaissance Critic And Biblical Theologian, Marvin W. Anderson
Laurentius Valla (1407-1457): Renaissance Critic And Biblical Theologian, Marvin W. Anderson
Concordia Theological Monthly
When Laurentius Valla penned those words, he was writing the fuse scientific treatise on Latin grammar since John Duns Scotus. Leonardo Bruni died in the same year Valla’s treatise appeared. The year 1444 marks the return of Renaissance scholars to a philological analysis of classical texts. This method, which Valla soon applied to Biblical study, revolutionized medieval Biblical scholarship in the century before Trent. Valla's purpose was to revitalize Catholic faith. Protestants and Catholics still owe their fresh awareness of Scripture to the labors of Valla.
New Testament Studies, Past And Present, Edgar Krentz
New Testament Studies, Past And Present, Edgar Krentz
Concordia Theological Monthly
The pastor who picks up a recent New Testament introduction or theology, a study of the Synoptic Gospels or Acts, or a history of New Testament times may well feel that for him the study of the New Testament has become an arcane and esoteric discipline. The questions asked about the Redaktionsgeschichte of a Gospel, the surprising frequency with which the term gnosis or Gnosticism appears in current literature, or the discussion in many circles of "incipient catholicism" may well lead him to suspect that the whole discipline has now changed.
