Book Review: "Paul And The Torah" By Lloyd Gaston, Vincent L. Wimbush Jan 1989

Book Review: "Paul And The Torah" By Lloyd Gaston, Vincent L. Wimbush

CGU Faculty Publications and Research

Paul and the Torah is the mature work of a well-known Canadian (Vancouver) biblical scholar in an important area of religious scholarship. The book is a collection of previously published essays having to do with Paul and his teachings regarding the relationship between the Jewish law and the Gentile Christianity of which he was pioneer. The essays, written over a period of at least a decade and arranged in chronological order, are remarkable for their coherence and consistency, and are a tribute to the author's powerful grasp and clear articulation of the materials and some very knotty issues and questions. …


The Role Of Episcopal Theology And Administration In The Implementation Of The Settlement Of Religion, 1559-C. 1575, Caroline J. Litzenberger Jan 1989

The Role Of Episcopal Theology And Administration In The Implementation Of The Settlement Of Religion, 1559-C. 1575, Caroline J. Litzenberger

Dissertations and Theses

The final form of the Settlement was the result of a creative struggle which involved Elizabeth and her advisers, together with the bishops and the local populace.

Through the ensuing implementation process the ultimate form of religion in England was defined.


Johannes Buxtorf I And The Circumcision Incident Of 1619, Stephen G. Burnett Jan 1989

Johannes Buxtorf I And The Circumcision Incident Of 1619, Stephen G. Burnett

Department of Classics and Religious Studies: Faculty Publications

Johannes Buxtorf I has frequently been portrayed in the scholarly literature as a vigorous proponent of missions to the Jews and an implacable foe of their religion. The circumcision incident of 1619 casts a slightly different light upon Buxtorf and his relations with the Jews. While Buxtorf made his religious objections to Jewish circumcision clear, his opinion of the event and the city council's reaction to it differed markedly. Differing views of what constituted "appropriate" behavior for Christians toward Jews lie at the heart of this unhappy incident.

Vincentian Missions Among Native Americans, John E. Rybolt Dec 1988

Vincentian Missions Among Native Americans, John E. Rybolt

John E Rybolt

Pioneer Vincentian missionaries in the United States quickly had contacts with Native Americans and reported on these to their European superiors. These contacts ceased when the tribes moved away from Vincentian areas, but they were occasionally renewed in the twentieth century. Two maps help to locate events.
