Download or read book Messianic Woes in First Peter written by Mark Dubis and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores 1 Peter against the backdrop of apocalyptic thought within early Judaism and Christianity, especially the concept of messianic woes (an expectation that a period of suffering and tribulation would preface the coming of the Messiah). It focuses upon 1 Peter's most eschatologically charged passage, 4:12-19, and argues that the messianic woes pattern shapes both this pericope as well as the book as a whole.
Download or read book 1 Peter written by Ernest Best and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First Letter of Peter is important not only for its own sake but also for the light it throws on the life of the early church. Its author, probably not the apostle Peter, belonged to the central stream of early Christianity and used much of the common tradition; the churches to which he wrote stood under the threat of persecution. This commentary not only deals with the customary difficult question of authorship and date but by a careful exegesis seeks to bring our the characteristic contribution of the Letter to Christian thought, to draw attention to the material common to the early Christian tradition, and to bring out what can be learned of the early church from the Letter.

Download or read book The Question of the Messianic Woes in 1 Peter written by Markus Theron Klausli and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Messianic Woes---a period of intense suffering expected in both Jewish and Christian literature to accompany the advent of Messiah and consequently, the end of the present world order---have long been seen in 1 Peter studies as a potential background for understanding the eschatological setting of passages that describe the sufferings of Christ and Christians. Recently, the main arguments defending the use of this paradigm have been summarized and defended in two major works: The Messianic Woes in 1 Peter 4:12-19 (2002) by Mark Dubis, and Deliverance Now and Not Yet (2003) by C. Marvin Pate and Douglas Kennard. This dissertation addresses concerns about the circumvention of contextual interpretations of specific passages in 1 Peter by the application of this paradigm portrayed in these two studies. The goal was to interact with arguments in an contextual study of key passages in order to demonstrate that the use of the Messianic woes paradigm is neither demanded nor necessarily beneficial to understanding the suffering in 1 Peter.

Download or read book 1 Peter Baker Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament written by Karen H. Jobes and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new edition in the award-winning BECNT series, leading evangelical biblical scholar Karen Jobes offers a substantive commentary on 1 Peter. The first edition, widely regarded as one of the leading commentaries on 1 Peter, has sold over 22,000 copies. The second edition takes recent scholarship into account and has been updated and revised throughout. Jobes takes a historical-grammatical approach to exegeting 1 Peter and considers the possibility that the original readers of the letter were actual exiles who had known Peter in some other location, probably Rome. She analyzes each discourse unit of the Greek text with a view toward not only what the letter meant in its original setting but how it speaks to readers today. As with all BECNT volumes, this commentary features an acclaimed, user-friendly design and admirably achieves the dual aims of the series--academic sophistication with pastoral sensitivity and accessibility--making it a useful tool for pastors, church leaders, students, and teachers.

Download or read book Narrative Calling and Missional Identity in 1 Peter written by David Shaw and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-11-13 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A story well-told and subsequently imbibed by its recipients has the power to shape one’s beliefs, identity, and way of life. So, what happens when a person or community is swept up in such a story? In this study, Shaw draws upon the dual methodologies of Narrative Transportation and Social Identity theories to consider how 1 Peter’s use of Old Testament narratives and καλέω language serves to ‘transport’ it’s recipients into an identity defined as ‘elect sojourners’. Amidst suffering, 1 Peter ‘calls’ the Anatolian believers to a priestly ministry, blessing their antagonists as they await their eternal glory in Christ.

Download or read book The Role of Emotion in 1 Peter written by Katherine M. Hockey and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-24 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Katherine M. Hockey explores the function of emotions in the New Testament by examining the role of emotions in 1 Peter. Moving beyond outdated, modern rationalistic views of emotions as irrational, bodily feelings, she presents a theoretically and historically informed cognitive approach to emotions in the New Testament. Informed by Greco-Roman philosophical and rhetorical views of emotions along with modern emotion theory, she shows how the author of 1 Peter uses the logic of each emotion to value and position objects within the audience's worldview, including the self and the other. She also demonstrates how, cumulatively, the emotions of joy, distress, fear, hope, and shame are deployed to build an alternative view of reality. This new view of reality aims to shape the believers' understanding of the structure of their world, encourages a reassessment of their personal goals, and ultimately seeks to affect their identity and behaviour.
