Download or read book The Friendship of the Lord written by Deryck Sheriffs and published by Regent College Pub. This book was released on 2007-01-05 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the religious experience of the Israelites mean anything to us today? Or does it have more affinity with the rituals, prayers and myths of the ancient Near East than with our world? Was Israelite spirituality so rooted in its culture that it will not transplant? Or can we graft its roots of faith and its struggle with life into our contemporary spirituality with integrity? What happens when we look at a relationship with God through the lens of the Old Testament? Does the Old Testament open a window on what it means to be human now? These are the issues addressed in the this survey. It looks at what it means to see life as a journey walked with God. It explores the fear of the Lord, biblical meditations and confronting God in anger. It focuses on life's mundaneness and its absurdity. It analyses guilt, true and false, and restoration through forgiveness. It asks whether Israel's experience of time passing, calendar of seasons and the rhythm of life offer today's urban commuters memos for their diaries. Deryck Sheriffs' concern to bridge the divide has led him to write a book on the Old Testament which moves from the world of academic biblical studies into the realm of contemporary spirituality.

This book was released on 2019-04-29 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spirituality is a major concern in the modern world, although its meaning is not easy to pin down. In Scripture, it concerns human life lived out in relationship with God. In this book Michael Thompson explores aspects of Old Testament spirituality. He considers the spiritual life through what the Hebrew Bible says about creation and covenant, deliverance and judgment, worship, living in community, inhabiting an ever-changing world, with questions about suffering, yet also with ethical concerns, and a future in God’s possible ongoing care. Each chapter concludes with a section exploring the ongoing relevance of Old Testament spirituality for Christians today.
Download or read book An Old Testament Theology of the Spirit of God written by Wilf Hildebrandt and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-08-19 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wilf Hildebrandt carefully explores the meaning of "the Spirit" in the Old Testament. He examines the role of God's Spirit in creation, in the establishment and preservation of God's people, in prophecy, and in Israel's leadership. He unveils the central role that the Spirit plays in creatively bringing about the directives of God. Through the Spirit, God brings order out of chaos, ushers the invisible into reality, makes a separation between the sacred and the profane, enables specific people to meet particular needs, and supersedes natural laws. This work sheds light on the Spirit of God in both the Old Testament and the New Testament.
Download or read book Les offrandes v g tales dans l Ancien Testament written by Alfred Marx and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-09-03 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present monograph is the first, since 1848, to be entirely devoted to the study of the cereal offerings. Its purpose is to attract attention to a form of sacrifice which was largely neglected and solely considered as an appendix to the animal sacrifice. The study of their substance, ritual and the circumstances in which the cereal offerings are brought to God demonstrates their great complexity as well as their specific function. His vegetarian utopia has led P to give the cereal offerings a prominent place among the sacrifices. A similar appreciation of the cereal offerings is also found among the Essenes, and, finally, in the Christian Last Supper.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book features a collection of articles on the Hebrew Scriptures that spring from the author's many years of teaching Old Testament in a context combining academic study and faith formation. Covering a wide breadth of topics and texts from the Hebrew Scriptures – from the Torah to the Prophets to the Writings – the unifying feature that emerges is an approach to Old Testament interpretation that refuses the dichotomy between academic scholarship and Pentecostal spirituality and seeks instead to re-fuse the connection between the sacred Scriptures and the Holy Spirit. These articles represent an unfolding effort to break ground and open up the emerging field of Pentecostal biblical hermeneutics.
