Download or read book The Divine Builder in Psalm 68 written by Todd A. Scacewater and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-14 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of Psalm 68:19 (Masoretic Text) in Ephesians 4:8 has a rich history of interpretation; particular focus has been placed on Jewish and Pauline interpretations of the psalm, and the Jewish exegetical tradition that reads Moses as the one who ascends Mount Sinai to receive and give the law. Todd Scacewater suggests a second tradition, henceforth unnoticed, that interprets Psalm 68 eschatologically. While both traditions are significant, Scacewater maintains that the eschatological tradition provides a better matrix through which to understand Paul's use of the psalm. Scacewater argues that another key for understanding Pauline use of the psalm is the divine builder topos, which is pervasive in the ancient Near East, utilized in Psalm 68, and evident in Paul's understanding of the psalm as he applies it to Christ, the eschatological divine builder. Discussing the context of Ephesians, the building of the Temple and the trope of the divine builder, and Psalm 68's position in early/late Judaism and Ephesians, Scacewater contributes to a new methodology for studying how the New Testament authors interpreted and appropriated Hebrew Scriptures.

Download or read book Christ over All Things written by James P. Crockett and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-11-01 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colossians and Ephesians present some of the highest statements of Christology in the New Testament. How is it that Christ came to be conceived not only as the Savior of humanity but also as the divine Lord over the whole cosmos? While previous scholars have looked to Wisdom traditions and Greco-Roman cosmology to provide background for the Christology of Colossians and Ephesians, James Crockett demonstrates that Jewish royal ideology provides the key conceptual background through which the Christology of these letters was formed. Crockett begins by demonstrating how Jewish literature reveals God’s intent to enact his rule over creation through his enthroned king, a plan which begins with Adam and continues with the promise of the ideal Davidic king. Crockett then shows how Paul utilizes and expands upon Jewish royal ideological themes to portray Christ as the supreme cosmic king through whom God reestablishes cosmic harmony.

Download or read book Psalms 45 100 written by Abraham Kuruvilla and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-03-29 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This three-volume commentary on the Psalms engages hermeneutics for preaching, employing theological exegesis that enables the preacher to utilize all the psalms in the Psalter to craft effective sermons. It unpacks the crucial link between Scripture and application: the theology of each preaching text/psalm—what the author is doing with what he is saying in each psalm—is explored and explicated. While the primary goal of the commentary is to take the preacher from text to theology, it also provides a sermon outline for each of the preaching units in the Psalms. The unique approach of this work results in a theology-for-preaching commentary that promises to be useful for anyone teaching from the Psalter with an emphasis on application.
