Book Who Shall Ascend the Mountain of the Lord

Download or read book Who Shall Ascend the Mountain of the Lord written by L. Michael Morales and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reformation 21's End of Year Review of Books Preaching's Survey of Bibles and Bible Reference "Who shall ascend the mountain of the LORD?" —Psalm 24:3 In many ways, this is the fundamental question of Old Testament Israel's cult—and, indeed, of life itself. How can creatures made from dust become members of God's household "forever"? The question of ascending God's mountain to his house was likely recited by pilgrims on approaching the temple on Mount Zion during the annual festivals. This entrance liturgy runs as an undercurrent throughout the Pentateuch and is at the heart of its central book, Leviticus. Its dominating concern, as well as that of the rest of the Bible, is the way in which humanity may come to dwell with God. Israel's deepest hope was not merely a liturgical question, but a historical quest. Under the Mosaic covenant, the way opened up by God was through the Levitical cult of the tabernacle and later temple, its priesthood and rituals. The advent of Christ would open up a new and living way into the house of God—indeed, that was the goal of his taking our humanity upon himself, his suffering, his resurrection and ascension. In this stimulating volume in the New Studies in Biblical Theology, Michael Morales explores the narrative context, literary structure and theology of Leviticus. He follows its dramatic movement, examines the tabernacle cult and the Day of Atonement, and tracks the development from Sinai?s tabernacle to Zion's temple—and from the earthly to the heavenly Mount Zion in the New Testament. He shows how life with God in the house of God was the original goal of the creation of the cosmos, and became the goal of redemption and the new creation. Addressing key issues in biblical theology, the works comprising New Studies in Biblical Theology are creative attempts to help Christians better understand their Bibles. The NSBT series is edited by D. A. Carson, aiming to simultaneously instruct and to edify, to interact with current scholarship and to point the way ahead.

  • Pages : 237 pages

Download or read book Remembering Zion written by Morley Glicken and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-07 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remembering Zion is a deeply spiritual novel of love set in the beauty and splendor of the American Southwest and Mexico. It is about a man who finds his perfect love and then loses her, only to be given gifts he never dreamed were possible. Remembering Zion is a journey of the heart and the soul. It is about the wonder and immortality of love. The author writes: "For those of you who believe in the notion of the Beshert, that for everyone there is a chosen one with whom we can achieve an immortal love, I hope you find this novel as touching to read as it was for me to write." Morley Glicken is the author of Ending the Sex Wars: A Woman's Guide to Understanding Men, also published by iUniverse. The novel takes many of the ideas presented about love in that book and applies them to people who are as real and memorable as those in our own lives. Remembering Zion has wonderfully romantic descriptions of Mexico and the Southwest, beautiful love poetry, and unforgettable characters who love deeply and show the reader how spiritual love leads to love for the ages, eternal love.

Book The Question of Zion

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jacqueline Rose
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2007-02-05
  • ISBN : 1400826527
  • Pages : 231 pages

Download or read book The Question of Zion written by Jacqueline Rose and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2007-02-05 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zionism was inspired as a movement--one driven by the search for a homeland for the stateless and persecuted Jewish people. Yet it trampled the rights of the Arabs in Palestine. Today it has become so controversial that it defies understanding and trumps reasoned public debate. So argues prominent British writer Jacqueline Rose, who uses her political and psychoanalytic skills in this book to take an unprecedented look at Zionism--one of the most powerful ideologies of modern times. Rose enters the inner world of the movement and asks a new set of questions. How did Zionism take shape as an identity? And why does it seem so immutable? Analyzing the messianic fervor of Zionism, she argues that it colors Israel's most profound self-image to this day. Rose also explores the message of dissidents, who, while believing themselves the true Zionists, warned at the outset against the dangers of statehood for the Jewish people. She suggests that these dissidents were prescient in their recognition of the legitimate claims of the Palestinian Arabs. In fact, she writes, their thinking holds the knowledge the Jewish state needs today in order to transform itself. In perhaps the most provocative part of her analysis, Rose proposes that the link between the Holocaust and the founding of the Jewish state, so often used to justify Israel's policies, needs to be rethought in terms of the shame felt by the first leaders of the nation toward their own European history. For anyone concerned with the conflict in Israel-Palestine, this timely book offers a unique understanding of Zionism as an unavoidable psychic and historical force.
