Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there a gap between the academic study of the Bible and the work of theologians? What lies behind this gap? And most important, how have biblical scholars tried to bridge the gap with hermeneutical methods? This book addresses the exegesis vs. theology impasse and categorizes the most important attempts to bridge it over the past century, especially those of the last decades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there a gap between the academic study of the Bible and the work of theologians? What lies behind this gap? And most important, how have biblical scholars tried to bridge the gap with hermeneutical methods? This book addresses the exegesis vs. theology impasse and categorizes the most important attempts to bridge it over the past century, especially those of the last decades. These attempts are assessed and evaluated so that readers can see the philosophies undergirding each and the potential each has for a true ""theological interpretation"" of the Bible. ""Biblical scholarship has adopted one hermeneutic lens after another--each showing the insufficiency of its predecessor. Miller explains the validity of each school, and moves the reader to wonder when contemporary writers will likewise be deposed. Many Roads Lead Eastward is an engaging text that students and professors will appreciate."" --Michael F. Steltenkamp, Department of Religious Studies and Theology, Wheeling Jesuit University ""This book argues that enabling Scripture to serve as 'the soul of theology' involves much more than biblical scholars engaging in paranesis, on the one hand, or in dialogue between biblicists and theologians, on the other. In doing so, the work seeks to fill a gap in discussions of theological exegesis and to address the gulf between 'serious scholarly work on the Bible' and that of 'practicing theologians.' Miller analyzes various hermeneutical models that in turn depend on particular understandings of revelation and inspiration. Ultimately he proposes an exegetical approach that encompasses a text's background, its canonical context, its trajectory into the New Testament, and history of interpretation in order to 'relate the text with contemporary experience, vocabulary and religious impact.' Readers concerned to hold together historical critical study of the Bible with theological exegesis will be sure to find something of interest here. Those conversant in the Roman Catholic documents on Scripture will also find the book of special interest."" --Claire Mathews McGinnis, Professor, Department of Theology, College of Arts & Sciences, Loyola University Maryland ""In this tightly written text, Robert Miller carves out a path to a biblical exegesis that boldly synthesizes modern scholarship with the quest to discern the truth of God's word as it impacts the world of today."" --Dennis M. Doyle, Professor of Religious Studies, University of Dayton; Author of What Is Christianity? A Dynamic Introduction (2016) Robert D. Miller, II, OFS, is Associate Professor of the Old Testament at the Catholic University of America and a Research Associate in the Department of Old Testament Studies at the University of Pretoria, South Africa.

Book Sauron Defeated  The End Of The Third Age

Download or read book Sauron Defeated The End Of The Third Age written by J.R.R. Tolkien and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The final part of The History of The Lord of the Rings, Sauron Defeated: The End Of The Third Age is J.R.R. Tolkien's enthralling account of the writing of the Book of the Century which contains many additional scenes and includes the unpublished Epilogue in its entirety. In the first section of Sauron Defeated Christopher Tolkien completes his fascinating study of The Lord of the Rings. Beginning with Sam’s rescue of Frodo from the Tower of Cirith Ungol, and giving a very different account of the Scouring of the Shire, this section ends with versions of the hitherto unpublished Epilogue, in which, years after the departure of Bilbo and Frodo from the Grey Havens, Sam attempts to answer his children’s questions. The second section is an edition of The Notion Club Papers. These mysterious papers, discovered in the early years of the twenty-first century, report the discussions of an Oxford club in the years 1986-7, in which after a number of topics, the centre of interest turns to the legend of Atlantis, the strange communications received by other members of the club from the past, and the violent irruption of the legend into the North-west of Europe.

Book Wilderness as Metaphor for God in the Hebrew Bible

Download or read book Wilderness as Metaphor for God in the Hebrew Bible written by Robert Miller II OFS and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-22 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient Israelite authors of the Hebrew Bible were not philosophers, so what they could not say about God in logical terms, they expressed through metaphor and imagery. To present God in His most impenetrable otherness, the image they chose was the desert. The desert was Ancient Israels southern frontier, an unknown region that was always elsewhere: from that elsewhere, God has come -- God came from the South (Hab 3:3); God, when you marched from the desert (Ps 68:8); from his southland mountain slopes (Deut 33:2). Robert Miller explores this imagery, shedding light on what the biblical authors meant by associating God with deserts to the south of Israel and Judah. Biblical authors knew of its climate, flora, and fauna, and understood this magnificent desert landscape as a fascinating place of literary paradox. This divine desert was far from lifeless, its plants and animals were tenacious, bizarre, fierce, even supernatural. The spiritual importance of the desert in a biblical context begins with the physical elements whose impact cognitive science can elucidate. Travellers and naturalists of the past two millennia have experienced this and other wildernesses, and their testimonies provide a window into Israel's experience of the desert. A prime focus is the existential experience encountered. Confronting the desert's enigmatic wildness, its melding of the known and unknown, leads naturally to spiritual experience. The books panoramic view of biblical spirituality of the desert is illustrated by the ways spiritual writers -- from Biblical Times to the Desert Fathers to German Mysticism -- have employed the images therefrom. Revelation and renewal are just two of many themes. Folklore of the Ancient Near East, and indeed elsewhere, that deals with the desert / wilderness archetype has been explored via Jungian psychology, Goethean Science, enunciative linguistics, and Hebrew philology. These philosophies contribute to this exploration of the Hebrew Bible's desert metaphor for God.
