The Law-Gospel Tension In Jeremiah, Theodore M. Ludwig
The Law-Gospel Tension In Jeremiah, Theodore M. Ludwig
Concordia Theological Monthly
The relationship between judgment and grace is a basic question in Biblical interpretation. God's fierce judgment and His unconditional grace stand side by side in the Biblical testimony, and on unresolved tension exists between these two aspects of God's self-disclosure. The tendency among Bible scholars today is to try to resolve this tension by building a "bridge" between judgment and grace, by some theological interpretation which demonstrates that God's judgment on His people leads directly to their salvation. In the study of the Book of Jeremiah the tension is commonly resolved by the idea of God's judgment as a disciplinary …

Current Roman Catholic Thought On Prophetic Interpretation, Walter E. Rast
Current Roman Catholic Thought On Prophetic Interpretation, Walter E. Rast
Concordia Theological Monthly
It is common knowledge by now that Roman Catholicism today is in the midst of a widespread movement of renewed interest in the Bible. One could cite as an illustration the discussions on the schema dealing with the church at the recent session of the Vatican Council in which New Testament ideas of the church played a noticeable role. Though for non-Roman Catholics the schema on the church may still leave something to be desired, the attention given to Biblical material indicates an important development.
An Approach To The Exegesis Of John 10:34-36, Richard Jungkuntz
An Approach To The Exegesis Of John 10:34-36, Richard Jungkuntz
Concordia Theological Monthly
In the interpretation of John 10:34-36 commentators have generally assumed that behind Jesus' words lies the intent by means of unanswerable formal argumentation to refute or at least to silence His opponents, the Pharisees, who have charged Him with blasphemy for claiming to be divine. A corollary of this assumption is the view that the statement "Scripture cannot be broken" means no more than "Scripture's statements are incontrovertible; if Scripture says something, that something is a fact." Acceptable as such a proposition in itself may be to Christian readers today, as well as to a Palestinian audience in Jesus' day, …
Deuteronomy 18 - God's Chosen People, Norman C. Habel
Deuteronomy 18 - God's Chosen People, Norman C. Habel
Concordia Theological Monthly
A survey of the periodical literature of the past 25 years reveals that Deut. 18 has neither been the object of close scrutiny nor the focal point of any significant controversies in the scholarly world. While some scholars may consider the designation of Moses as a נֽכִֽיא {prophet) in Deut. 18:15 an anachronism, the pertinence of this passage for an appreciation of the prophetic movement of the Old Testament cannot be ignored. Nor can we avoid coming to grips with the New Testament allusions to the pericope under discussion. We shall attempt, within the brief scope of this essay, to …
Old Testament Theology As Heilsgcschichte, Arlis John Ehlene
Old Testament Theology As Heilsgcschichte, Arlis John Ehlene
Concordia Theological Monthly
An important group of Old Testament scholars in Germany and America is currently making copious use of the term Heilsgeschichte and the ideas associated with it. Avoided until recently by scientific theologians as suggestive of Biblicism and obscurantism, it has staged a comeback as a key word in some of the most respected scholarly circles.

Ministry And Life In The Seven Churches, Arthur C. Repp
Ministry And Life In The Seven Churches, Arthur C. Repp
Concordia Theological Monthly
The book of Revelation, the great Apocalypse of our Lord, is a record of what Jesus Christ showed His servant John, a record of "what must soon take place." In a series of ever-expanding visions Saint John the Divine is given to see the final and complete victory of Jesus Christ and His church. Though in the ages to come the powers of hell will appear to prevail through persecutions, famines, imprisonment, death, and destruction, Jesus Christ will nonetheless emerge in complete triumph on the Day of days as King of kings and Lord of lords.
A Study Of Ecclesiastes, A. F. Rainey
A Study Of Ecclesiastes, A. F. Rainey
Concordia Theological Monthly
Among the books of the Bible Qoheleth has the distinction of being the most distrusted by the pious but best liked by the skeptic. It is disturbing to acknowledge that a sacred book has pleased the agnostic or the pessimist more than it has edified the saint. The range of opinion regarding origin and purpose of the book is vast. Indeed, to recount and evaluate even the major theories would require a separate study. The following is an attempt to present only one interpretation of Qoheleth and his world.

Concordia Theological Monthly
What does St. Paul mean when he calls the Athenians δεισιδαιμονεσ-τέϱουζ in Acts 17:22? In order to understand the interpretative problem and to arrive at a reasoned conclusion, one must know something of the history of the term δεισιδαιμονια.

Opportunities In The Field Of Bible Translating, Eugene A. Nida
Opportunities In The Field Of Bible Translating, Eugene A. Nida
Concordia Theological Monthly
Ever since World War II an increasingly larger number of persons have become interested in and concerned for the field of Bible translating; the strategy of the printed page and the crucial necessity of wider distribution of the Scriptures have forced Christians to pay greater attention to the translation and revision of the Holy Scriptures. In our rapidly shrinking world, those with even a limited knowledge of the problems of communication on the mission field, have not failed to be impressed with the significant contribution which can be made by the relatively new emphases on structural linguistics and cultural anthropology. …

The Fourth Gospel Yesterday And Today, John W. Montgomery
The Fourth Gospel Yesterday And Today, John W. Montgomery
Concordia Theological Monthly
In this paper a comparative study will be made of the work of four Johannine interpreters who are widely separated both in time and in theological approach: Philipp Melanchthon (1497-1560), Luther’s irenic associate, rightly designated the "preceptor of Germany"; Aegidius Hunnius (1550-1603), an uncompromising representative of early Lutheran confessional orthodoxy; Father Marie-Joseph Lagrange (1855-1938), one of the greatest Roman Catholic Biblical scholars of the twentieth century; and Charles Kingsley Barrett, an English Methodist, who since 1958 has served as professor of divinity at Durham University, and who is the author of a highly reputed commentary on the Greek text of …
Investment For Eternity A Study Of Luke 16:1-13, Richard R. Caemmerer
Investment For Eternity A Study Of Luke 16:1-13, Richard R. Caemmerer
Concordia Theological Monthly
Pastors are sometimes dismayed at the multiplicity of their duties. The burden lies not in their number but in the difficulty with which many of them seem to relate to the ministry of the Word and the one thing needful. The task which threatens this relevance most seriously is the fostering of Christian giving, or as it is called secularly, fund raising. The effort to supply Christian motivation through familiar terms like "stewardship" and "liberality" becomes wearing to pastors and people the kingdom of God, or of the Holy Spirit alike. Yet the need of "raising money" does not slacken.
Light From Galatians 3:1 On Pauline Theology, Paul G. Bretscher
Light From Galatians 3:1 On Pauline Theology, Paul G. Bretscher
Concordia Theological Monthly
The interpretation of this impassioned verse from an impassioned epistle has for some time ceased to be a problem for commentators. "New evidence," reported by George Milligan in 1923, came by way of a 17-century-old scrap of papyrus. It told of the parents of a wayward son who notified the governor that they would no longer be responsible for the son's debts and asked that a public announcement to this effect be "placarded up" (πϱογϱαφῆναι) where all might read it.

Heirs Of The Reformation In The Pulpit, Graeme M. Rosenau
Heirs Of The Reformation In The Pulpit, Graeme M. Rosenau
Concordia Theological Monthly
Being an heir of the Reformation involves far more than giving oratorical impasto in the pulpit to the slogan ''We have Luther as our Father" and engaging in unbridled ranting against Rome or Geneva. Without scorning necessary and proper polemics, the Lutheran preacher will at the same time be gratefully aware that in the very act of occupying his pulpit he is enjoying one of the richest blessings of his heritage.
The Holy Spirit In The Fourth Gospel From The Viewpoint Of Christ's Glorification, Robert Hoeferkamp
The Holy Spirit In The Fourth Gospel From The Viewpoint Of Christ's Glorification, Robert Hoeferkamp
Concordia Theological Monthly
Every student of the Bible knows the differences between the Synoptic Gospels on one hand and the Gospel of John on the other. It is the same Christ they portray. But the studied unity of conception, the composition, and the purpose of the Fourth Gospel catch the reader's attention as he turns to it from the Synoptic Gospels. It is the purpose of this paper to point our that one of the keys to the understanding of the Fourth Gospel is its major emphasis on the Holy Spirit. If we understand the nature, purpose, and function of the Holy Spirit …
The Devotional Use Of The Bible, James G. Manz
The Devotional Use Of The Bible, James G. Manz
Concordia Theological Monthly
Our topic suggests that there is another use of the Holy Bible. This is the study of Holy Scripture which is traditionally associated with the discipline of theological seminaries and the work of Biblical scholars and ministers. Its technical term is exegesis and has as its task to get out of the sacred text what God put into it. To achieve its purpose an exegetical study of Scripture involves knowledge of the ancient tongues. Martin Luther had a high regard for that language study which had as its aim the understanding of the meaning of the Scripture. He said, "As …
Ezra And Nehemiah: A Review Of The Return And Reform, Martin W. Leesberg
Ezra And Nehemiah: A Review Of The Return And Reform, Martin W. Leesberg
Concordia Theological Monthly
The books of Ezra and Nehemiah present an account of the history of the Judean people from the time of the Exile until the transition to Judaism was well on its way. Cyrus, king of Persia, in his first regnal year issued a decree permitting the Judean exiles to return to Jerusalem (Ezra 1:1-4). Sheshbazzar, a Judean prince (Ezra 1:8), led the first group of returnees and rebuilt the altar. The temple was begun in the following year (Ezra 5:16), but opposition by the people of the land delayed the project for about fifteen years.

Luther As Exegete, Douglas Carter
Luther As Exegete, Douglas Carter
Concordia Theological Monthly
In the era of the 16th-century Reformation it was given to Martin Luther to fill a role unique in its range. He was a controversialist who joined issue with the regnant theology of his day; a reformer who brought about such a renewal of the church as many of his contemporaries and predecessors had dreamed of; the reorganizer who changed the ecclesiastical map of Europe; a pastoral administrator; a spiritual director; and a writer of great versatility whose published works run to more than 50,000 pages in the Erlangen edition.

From age to age the Church, in her fulfillment of the mission committed to her by our Lord, must seek with fervent effort to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit. From the point of view of history in its totality, the Church must have made plain the wholeness and the fullness of God's truth and of God's love, and it is our faith that God will give his Church power to do this.
