Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays, Biblical and Ecclesiastical: Relating Chiefly to the Authority and the Interpretation of Holy Scripture Although trained in early life in a somewhat advanced Puritan school, the writer was ever led to recognize a distinction between Divine Revelation and the casket which contains it, and therefore never was fettered by that idea of an organic oneness in the whole collection of the Old and New Testaments which, he is thoroughly convinced, lies at the root of many luxurious growths of exegetical error and polemical fanaticism. For instance, the writer in no period of his mental history would have been disturbed had the Apocalypse been placed before St. Matthew, or the Canticles and Esther been relegated to the region of the Apocrypha. These convictions, formed by early training more by an unconscious 73009 or influence than by any didactic system, were ever afterwards deepened by the study of the originals of Holy Scripture, aided by the critical and hermeneutical apparatus so fully and freely exhibited in the following Essays. His belief in the great doctrines of the Faith has never depended on individual texts of Scripture, and therefore it has not been disturbed by any school of criticism; it has ever been anchored on the firm rock of the Bible, as a whole, and as the depository of God's will to man, and it has, consequently, never been disturbed by the varying and increasing demands of human tradition.

Download or read book Engaging Biblical Authority written by William P. Brown and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the Bible infallible or inerrant, as some churches claim? Is it a historical document or a piece of literature, as some scholars suggest? This book offers a brief introduction to the question of biblical authority, using essays written by sixteen scholars who use the Bible as the Word of God in their own religious tradition and in their scholarship. Beginning with an introduction to the foundational issues of biblical authority, these scholars each present a different, but sympathetic, view of the Bible from his or her own perspective and experience. Their voices include traditional Reformed, Lutheran, Wesleyan, Catholic, Jewish, and Orthodox views; recent conservative or evangelical positions; and critical African American, Asian American, Hispanic, feminist, and womanist perspectives. --From publisher's description.
Download or read book Essays in Biblical Interpretation written by Henry Preserved Smith and published by . This book was released on 1921 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book does not claim to be a history of biblical interpretation. It is an attempt to illustrate certain ways in which the Old Testament part of our Bible has been treated in the course of the Christian centuries. Since almost every theologian, Jewish or Christian, has directly or indirectly commented on the Scriptures, a complete history of this branch of science would seem to be beyond the powers of any one man. Some account of the main currents of thought in this department can be gathered, I venture to hope, from the following pages. - Preface.
Download or read book Scripture Matters written by Scott Hahn and published by Emmaus Road Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular author and scholar Dr. Scott Hahn has released a collection of essays on the study and interpretation of Scripture from a Catholic perspective. Aptly titled Scripture Matters: Essays on Reading the Bible from the Heart of the Church, Dr. Hahn takes a penetrating look into the depths of Scripture, showing the reader how to uncover its many layers of meaning and inspiration. Scripture Matters serves both as an instructional guide to reading the Bible and as a delightful meditation on the grandeur of God's Word. Dr. Hahn effectively illustrates his discussion with the writings of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Saint Josemaría Escrivá, Cardinal Ratzinger, and other exemplary scholars of Scripture who truly speak "from the heart of the Church."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conflicting claims to authority in relation to the translation and interpretation of the Bible have been a recurrent source of tension within the Christian church, and were a key issue in the Reformation debate. This book traces how the authority of the Septuagint and later that of the Vulgate was called into question by the return to the original languages of scripture, and how linguistic scholarship was seen to pose a challenge to the authority of the teaching and tradition of the church. It shows how issues that remained unresolved in the early church re-emerged in first half of the sixteenth century with the publication of Erasmus’ Greek-Latin New Testament of 1516. After examining the differences between Erasmus and his critics, the authors contrast the situation in England, where Reformation issues were dominant, and Italy, where the authority of Rome was never in question. Focusing particularly on the dispute between Thomas More and William Tyndale in England, and between Ambrosius Catharinus and Cardinal Cajetan in Italy, this book brings together perspectives from biblical studies and church history and provides access to texts not previously translated into English.
Download or read book Understanding Hebrew Idiomatic Figurative Language written by and published by Troy Edwards. This book was released on 2023-01-10 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does God hate certain people or does He love everyone? Is He jealous of anyone? Does He struggle with anger? Is He looking for people to be terrified of Him? Is He self-centered and vindictive? Can He be provoked easily? Does He lead people astray? Is He punishing children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren for the sins of their forefathers? Some argue that the Bible teaches that God is the one who accomplishes all of this. Sadly, some have reached these incorrect conclusions because they were unable to appreciate the figurative and idiomatic language of Scripture. This book, “Understanding Hebrew Idiomatic & Figurative Language,” teaches us how portrayals of God, when examined from the perspective of the Ancient Near Eastern culture from which Scripture was written, give us a truly stunning image of the God who is exactly like Jesus.
