Book excerpt: “Wealth without work Pleasure without conscience Science without humanity Knowledge without character Politics without principle Commerce without morality Worship without sacrifice. https://vidjambov.blogspot.com/2023/01/book-inventory-vladimir-djambov-talmach.html Jesus cried out with a loud voice so that we could enlighten that when He said: “I have the power to lay My soul,” this was true, for He gives the soul with power. What was this appeal? “Father, in thy hands I betray my spirit,” for not by compulsion, but he voluntarily gave up the spirit. This shows: “I betray”; also shows that He is thinking again to receive His soul, for every pledge is again given back. Thanks be to the Lord that when He died and when His spirit was handed over to the Father, from that time the souls of the saints are put into the hands of God, and not in the dungeons of hell, as before, so that the death of Christ became our sanctification. For this, death is invoked with a loud voice, not daring and come up if it had not been called. The church curtain consisted of a kind of canvas hung in the middle of the temple and separating the inside from the outside, like a wall. That it is torn apart - through this God shows that the temple, inaccessible and unseen, the inside of which was covered with a veil, will be in such humiliation and contempt that it will be accessible to everyone and anyone can consider it. Others indicate other causes of strife. A torn curtain meant, they say, the abolition of the letter of law, and also that all that was lawful was revealed, which had previously been covered with a letter, like a kind of curtain - and everything that was previously obscure and mysterious would become clear now, having been fulfilled on Christ. One can also say that, as was the custom of the Jews in the case of blasphemy, to tear their clothes, so now the temple of God, as if grieving for the death of God, tore his clothes, the veil. And someone else could say, but that is enough. The elements then hesitated, as if testifying that the Sufferer is the Creator, so showing at the same time that that there will be a change in deeds, for the Scripture considers an earthquake as a sign of a change in deeds. So the transfer of God's view from the Jews to the Gentiles took place. And the stones, that is, the stone hearts of the Gentiles, were dissolved and accepted the seed of truth, and those who had been killed by sins rose up and entered the holy city, into Jerusalem above, and appeared to be many who walk on a broad path; appearing to them, they became for them the prototype of a good life and conversion: for, seeing a man, first mortified by passions, and then turned and entered the holy heavenly city, another imitates him and turns around in every way. However, it was invented too exquisitely. You know that the resurrection of the dead, which happened at the cross of the Lord, made it clear that the souls that were in hell were released. The Risen then appeared to many, so that what happened would not seem like a dream; But they have risen for the sake of a sign; and it is clear that they died again. However, some say that they were resurrected after the resurrection of Christ and another time did not die. I do not know if this should be accepted.
Download or read book John Calvin s Bible Commentaries On The Harmony Of The Gospels Vol 1 written by John Calvin and published by Jazzybee Verlag. This book was released on with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calvin produced commentaries on most of the books of the Bible. His commentaries cover the larger part of the Old Testament, and all of the new excepting Second and Third John and the Apocalypse. His commentaries and lectures stand in the front rank of Biblical interpretation. Our Author has exerted a powerful influence on all succeeding expositors. They have found their interest in listening to his instructions, and have been more deeply indebted to him than is generally known. Many valuable interpretations of passages of Scripture appeared for the first time in his writings, and have ever since been warmly approved. In other cases, the views which had been previously held are placed by him in so strong a light as to remove every doubt, and satisfy the most cautious inquiry. And yet the stores, from which so much has been drawn, are far from being exhausted, nor is their value greatly lowered by improvements which have been subsequently made. The department of History presents an analogous case. Documents which had been overlooked are carefully examined. Conflicting evidence is more accurately weighed. Important transactions assume a new aspect, or, at least, are altered in their subordinate details. Still, there are historians, in whose narrative the great lines of truth are so powerfully drawn, that the feebler, though more exact, delineations of other men cannot supply their place. In the chief moral requisite for such a work Calvin is excelled by none. He is an honest interpreter. No consideration would have induced him to wrest the words of Scripture from their plain meaning. Those who may question his conclusions cannot trace them to an unworthy motive. Timid theologians will be occasionally startled by his expositions.

Download or read book Agape in the New Testament Volume 1 written by Ceslas Spicq and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2006-09-01 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this insightful work, the author explores the fundamental Christian virtue of 'agape.' Spicq's genius is the way he combines fine linguistic analysis, exegesis, and theological insight. The three volumes cover most of the New Testament books: Volume 1: 'Agape in the Synoptic Gospels' Volume 2: 'Agape in the Epistles of St. Paul, the Acts of the Apostles, the Epistles of St. James, St. Peter, and St. Jude' Volume 3: 'Agape in the Gospel, Epistles and Apocalypse of St. John' Agape is an active and effective love operating with a singular tenderness. The Sermon on the Mount stressed its heroic forms of patience and of gentleness. The parable of the Good Samaritan shows it to be attentive and tender, truly compassionate. . . . In the Gospel, to love means to give, to give oneself, to belong to another--to belong to God in obedience and consecration, to belong to neighbor in service and compassion. --from the Conclusion
