Download or read book Ecclesiastes written by Russell L. Meek and published by Energion Publications. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is wrong with the author of Ecclesiastes? Why is there a book in the Bible that tells us that all is vanity? Who is the author? Ecclesiastes: A Participatory Study Guide is the ninth volume in the Participatory Study Series and the first that is a guide to an Old Testament book. There has been much controversy about the correct approach to interpreting Ecclesiastes. Is the author clinically depressed? Should you read the book when you're down in order to find someone who can join you in your misery? Is there anything uplifting in it? There are some who have thought the book doesn't belong in the Bible at all. Russell L. Meek takes a different approach. Through a serious study of the language and of the relationship between the text and that of other Bible writers, he discovers a much more positive message. It is still a book that can help you if you're looking at the troubles and problems of the world. But it is more than a place to find a companion in misery. In its text you can find help from someone who knows the way out, who knows how a person of faith, even if that faith is tried to the breaking point, can find enjoyment and rest in God. Its six lessons are thematic, covering issues such as the date, authorship and literary context of the book, the meaning of the key Hebrew word hebel, traditionally translated "vanity," the theme of death in Ecclesiastes, the way the author makes use of other scriptural text and why this is important to our understanding of the book, injustice, and how we should respond to the troubles of life. It is not just a theoretical study, but always examines how this Bible book can guide us in our lives. This study guide continues the tradition of the Participatory Study Series by helping to model different techniques and approaches for Bible study. The author doesn't just tell you what the text means; he shows you how to discover this and gives you the opportunity to interact with the Bible text for yourself. It's designed for use by small groups, but it is also suitable for individual study. As is the case with each volume in this series, it includes pointers to help with your own Bible study and lists of resources to help guide you.

Book excerpt: Ecclesiastes is at once a strange book and a modern one, at once enigmatic and curiously familiar. Here we find a man detached from the world and yet intensely aware of it, setting down in writing his thoughts about human life.

Whybray sorts through the options by asking questions regarding the author, his times, his language and his ideas.

Download or read book Ecclesiastes written by Justin S. Holcomb and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Knowing the Bible series is a resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God’s Word. These 12-week studies lead participants through books of the Bible and are made up of four basic components: (1) reflection questions help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) “Gospel Glimpses” highlight the gospel of grace throughout the book; (3) “Whole-Bible Connections” show how any given passage connects to the Bible’s overarching story of redemption, culminating in Christ; and (4) “Theological Soundings” identify how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture. With contributions from an array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God’s grace on every page of the Bible. The book of Ecclesiastes powerfully conveys the meaninglessness of life without God. In this accessible study through a book of the Bible that is often viewed as confusing, Justin Holcomb helps Christians understand the necessity of fearing God in a fallen and frustrating world, pointing us to God’s ultimate mission to restore creation from the curse through the power of the gospel.

Its story-centric approach is ideal for pastors, students, Sunday school teachers, and laypeople alike. Each volume employs three main, easy-to-use sections designed to help readers live out God's story: LISTEN to the Story: Includes complete NIV text with references to other texts at work in each passage, encouraging the reader to hear it within the Bible's grand story. EXPLAIN the Story: Explores and illuminates each text as embedded in its canonical and historical setting. LIVE the Story: Reflects on how each text can be lived today and includes contemporary stories and illustrations to aid preachers, teachers, and students. — Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs— Commentators have derived a range of interpretations of the book of Ecclesiastes. For some, it's wholly in keeping with traditional biblical wisdom, while for others it is a radically unorthodox manifesto. Song of Songs has likewise been subject to a number of interpretations and challenges. Is it an allegory for God's love for his people, or is its intent plainer—an exposition of human love and sexuality? Edited by Scot McKnight and Tremper Longman III, and written by a number of top-notch theologians, The Story of God Bible Commentary series will bring relevant, balanced, and clear-minded theological insight to any biblical education or ministry.

Download or read book Walk with the Word Ecclesiastes Study Guide written by D. E. Isom and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whereas the other books of the Bible assigned to members of the "Wisdom Literature" present Western readers with the challenge of navigating the literary devices of Hebrew poetry, Ecclesiastes has an ordered structure which genuinely unfolds in a very logical progression over its twelve chapters. Although not perfectly aligned with the Western addiction to an ordered format in the character of a set of instructions for operating machinery, it nonetheless progresses through the necessary increments, arriving at a very biblical conclusion. Its structure is not so different from the Epistles, and similarly embracing the theme of daily Christian living, is probably the closest Old Testament book in that respect. At the end of all the analysis, this is a treatise on coming to terms with the fact that this life is finite and will only be successively navigated by the full trust in and dependence upon God. The examination of this mortal life by even the most wise and learned man in history to that point only served to prove that knowledge must always and ultimately give way to faith. The achievement of that realization produces the ability to therefore enjoy what God has given for the time allotted without incurring additional baggage for what will inevitably come next.Each of these studies, as with all which are found on Walk with the Word, were created using the Inductive Bible Study (IBS) method. This is why the overall format of each lesson comes in the form of questions which prod exploration and examination of the text. When employed in a teaching environment, the leader acts more as a facilitator by asking the questions and guiding the discussion so as to involve the participants in an exercise wherein they are being discipled to properly handle Scripture in parallel with self-examination. These studies are not intended to simply convey information as a result of the author's research or presentation, but for participants to actively seek and realize for themselves what needs to be put into practice from God's Word. In other words, this is not a study of literature, but an exercise in discipleship.Also available is "The Walk with the Word Ecclesiastes Study Guide (Small Group/Seminar Leader Edition)" to present this material in ten consecutive lessons, and the accompanying "The Walk with the Word Ecclesiastes Study Guide Workbook" in which participants can keep notes in parallel to each study. This title is available both in print and as a Kindle eBook.
