Download or read book Egypt as a Monster in the Book of Ezekiel written by Safwat Marzouk and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2015-06-05 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Appealing to Monster Theory and the ancient Near Eastern motif of "Chaoskampf," Safwat Marzouk argues that the paradoxical character of the category of the monster is what prompts the portrayal of Egypt as a monster in the book of Ezekiel. While on the surface the monster seems to embody utter difference, underlying its otherness there is a disturbing sameness. Though the monster may be defeated and its body dismembered, it is never completely annihilated. Egypt is portrayed as a monster in the book of Ezekiel because Egypt represents the threat of religious assimilation. Although initially the monstrosity of Egypt is constructed because of the shared elements of identity between Egypt and Israel, the prophet flips this imagery of monster in order to embody Egypt as a monstrous Other. In a combat myth, YHWH defeats the monster and dismembers its body. Despite its near annihilation, Egypt, in Ezekiel's rhetoric, is not entirely obliterated. Rather, it is kept at bay, hovering at the periphery, questioning Israel's identity.

Download or read book Ezekiel Brazos Theological Commentary on the Bible written by Robert W. Jenson and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2009-05-01 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pastors and leaders of the classical church--such as Augustine, Calvin, Luther, and Wesley--interpreted the Bible theologically, believing Scripture as a whole witnessed to the gospel of Jesus Christ. Modern interpreters of the Bible questioned this premise. But in recent decades, a critical mass of theologians and biblical scholars has begun to reassert the priority of a theological reading of Scripture. The Brazos Theological Commentary on the Bible enlists leading theologians to read and interpret Scripture for the twenty-first century, just as the church fathers, the Reformers, and other orthodox Christians did for their times and places. In this addition to the series, esteemed theologian Robert W. Jenson presents a theological exegesis of Ezekiel.

Download or read book The Theology of the Book of Revelation written by Richard Bauckham and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-03-04 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Revelation is a work of profound theology. But its literary form makes it impenetrable to many modern readers and open to all kinds of misinterpretations. Richard Bauckham explains how the book's imagery conveyed meaning in its original context and how the book's theology is inseparable from its literary structure and composition. Revelation is seen to offer not an esoteric and encoded forecast of historical events but rather a theocentric vision of the coming of God's universal kingdom, contextualised in the late first-century world dominated by Roman power and ideology. It calls on Christians to confront the political idolatries of the time and to participate in God's purpose of gathering all the nations into his kingdom. Once Revelation is properly grounded in its original context it is seen to transcend that context and speak to the contemporary church. This study concludes by highlighting Revelation's continuing relevance for today.

Download or read book Study Syllabus for the Book of Ezekiel written by Billye Brim and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Indeed the Prophet Ezekiel made dire warnings, and descriptions of Israel's dark sins. But Ezekiel was also a priest, and his ministry was priestly in consolation. The Lord gave him translations and visions that prophesied of the promised redemption. He prophesied the end of days return to their Land that we are witnessing now. He foresaw in detail the Millennial Temple, the division of the Land again to the returned Tribes of Israel. The Book ends with the wonderful proclamation that the Glory will be over earthly Jerusalem when its very name shall be Jehovah Shammah, The LORD is There."We are living in what the original Hebrew text of the Bible calls "the end of days." The King James Version translates the phrase as "the latter days."The Bible declares that there is a God-given light of revelation that shines upon the unknown--illuminating the darkness of these days and the days to come. This light is written down for us, primarily in the Books of the Old Testament Prophets.We are advised to "take heed unto them." For they are "a light that shineth" in the dark places of what is now past to us, and of the present, and the future.Yechezkel, Ezekiel, is one of the most enlightening of those Books of the Prophets. In it you will find brilliant light on these days and the days to come. And you will see a revelation of the Shechinah Glory you may never have seen.This study booklet, with outlines and comments by Dr. Billye Brim highlighting key passages of each chapter of The Book of Ezekiel, will bring light and understanding to this often misunderstood book of the Bible.

Download or read book Honor Shame and Guilt written by Daniel Y. Wu and published by Bulletin for Biblical Research Supplement. This book was released on 2016 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, Wu explores how the concepts honor, shame, and guilt function in the book of Ezekiel, as well as in the wider contexts of their general use in anthropological or social-scientific approaches to biblical studies. He frames Ezekiel's key terms for honor (kabod), shame (bosh ), and guilt ('awah) within an analysis of a broad perspective on these terms in the body of the Old Testament as a way of forming the "concept spheres" within which the specific instances of each term in Ezekiel sit. Wu gleans insight from the dominant contemporary definitions of honor, shame, and guilt in the fields of psychology and anthropology and their application to biblical studies, and he reflects on how this broader context informs and is informed by his analysis of Ezekiel. The study concludes by drawing together the implications and contribution of the analysis of Ezekiel and applying them to the development of social-scientific models for the future.

Download or read book Reading Ezekiel written by Marvin Alan Sweeney and published by Smyth & Helwys Publishing Incorporated. This book was released on 2013 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new volume in the Reading the Old Testament commentary series, biblical scholar Marvin A. Sweeney considers one of the most interesting and compelling books of the Hebrew Bible. Ezekiel is simultaneously one of the Bible's most difficult and perplexing books as it presents the visions and oracles of Ezekiel, a Judean priest and prophet exiled to Babylonia in the sixth century BCE. The book of Ezekiel points to the return of YHWH to the holy temple at the center of a reconstituted Israel and creation at large. As such, the book of Ezekiel portrays the purging of Jerusalem, the Temple, and the people, to reconstitute them as part of a new creation at the conclusion of the book. With Jerusalem, the Temple, and the people so purged, YHWH stands once again in the holy center of the created world. As Sweeney writes in his introduction, the book of Ezekiel ultimately represents "a profound attempt to encounter the holy in the profane world, and based on that encounter, to sanctify the world in which we live." Edited by Mark E. Biddle, Russell T. Cherry Professor of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament at Baptist Theological Seminary at Richmond, the Reading the Old Testament commentary series presents cutting-edge biblical research in accessible language.
