Download or read book The Holy City written by Leslie J. Hoppe and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Holy City begins with a review of the place of Jerusalem in the three Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

This book proves the place of Jerusalem according to the religious traditions of ancient Israel as preserved in the Old Testament and some early Jewish texts.

Book The Eschatological Role of the Jerusalem Temple  An Examination of the Jewish Writings dating from 586 BCE to 70 CE

Download or read book The Eschatological Role of the Jerusalem Temple An Examination of the Jewish Writings dating from 586 BCE to 70 CE written by Eric W. Baker and published by Anchor Academic Publishing (aap_verlag). This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research aims to investigate the role or roles of the physical Jerusalem temple within the second temple Jewish writings in terms of whether the physical temple has any role to play in relation to the pivot point in eschatology. The pivot point or fulcrum in time refers to the end of the exile and perhaps the beginning of the eschaton. The exile may be theological, but many second temple Jewish texts address the physical gathering of the children of Israel to the land of Israel (i.e., from physical exile, even if the text also addresses a theological exile), thus, making the return a complete ingathering of the children of Israel. The passages of these ancient texts have been analysed before, but never with this lens. Looking to see if there is any role the Jerusalem Temple performs in expected eschatological events will at least allow an answer to be given, which is better than never asking the question in the first place, which has been the case until now. This study produces results as the Jerusalem Temple has always been a place of great expectations.

Book Holy City  Holy Places

  • Author : Peter W. L. Walker
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press, USA
  • Release : 1990
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 472 pages

Download or read book Holy City Holy Places written by Peter W. L. Walker and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1990 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Early Christian Studies series will include scholarly volumes on the thought and history of the early Christian centuries. Covering a wide range of Greek, Latin, and Oriental sources, the books will be of interest to theologians, ancient historians, and specialists in the classical and Jewish worlds. Series Editors: Rowan Williams, Lady Margaret Professor of Divinity at University of Oxford and Henry Chadwick, Master of Peterhouse in the University of Cambridge. The first book in The Oxford Early Christian Studies series, this study examines how Christians, whose faith is rooted historically in the Holy Land, define the precise significance of such a "holy land" in the present. Walker focuses on 325 A.D., when Constantine, the first Christian emperor, established his capital at Byzantium, allowing the Christians to uncover the Gospel sites and develop a theoretical approach to the Holy Land. He systematically compares for the first time the attitudes of two ancient writers, Eusebius of Caesarea and Cyril of Jerusalem--whose works discuss these events--revealing a new and important appreciation of Eusebius as one who, unlike Cyril, did not believe that the city in the Judean hills was truly "the city of God."

Book A Christian Theology of Place

Download or read book A Christian Theology of Place written by John Inge and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The place in which we stand is often taken for granted and ignored in our increasingly mobile society. Differentiating between place and space, this book argues that place has very much more influence upon human experience than is generally recognised and that this lack of recognition, and all that results from it, are dehumanising. John Inge presents a rediscovery of the importance of place, drawing on the resources of the Bible and the Christian tradition to demonstrate how Christian theology should take place seriously. A renewed understanding of the importance of place from a theological perspective has much to offer in working against the dehumanising effects of the loss of place. Community and places each build the identity of the other; this book offers important insights in a world in which the effects of globalisation continue to erode people's rootedness and experience of place.

Now!2) Live a victorious overcoming life... Now3) Experience inner peace... Now!4) Build an important bridge between preterism/fulfilled eschatology and futurism... Now!ReviewsMarty Angelo's incredible testimony with an articulation of a teaching, that is committed to the growth of the kingdom of God into the ages of the ages. - Parker Voll, M.T.S.Marty lends an important spirit-fille voice to the growing movement of believers who love the message of fulfilled prophecy and present kingdom realities, through Jesus Christ. - Riley O Brien Powell, M.Div.Marty Angelo takes us with him on a very personal journey of searching and discovery with plenty of scriptural signposts guiding the way. - John R. Noe, Ph.D.In a world in which we are told repeatedly that the church is Plan B Marty rightfully and effectively demonstrates that the church is the glory of Christ. - Don K. Preston, D.

MartinOne man's account of how he came to a working knowledge of God' s Kingdom being a present reality in his life. - Michael J Loomis --variousFOREWORDThe realization that a man could withhold the release of such an amazing book for thirty-years tells me that God is not only the orchestrator of this vision but has also bridled Marty's desire and passion to release a book outside of HIS perfect timing.Marty Angelo has laid out such a comprehensive road map throughout the Old and New Testament s about the Second Coming of Jesus Christ that you will find yourself squirming in your seat as the Holy Spirit lovingly but thoroughly reveals to you, what only He can.I was asked by Marty to be a second-set-of-eyes before he sent his manuscript to the publisher and what I discovered through the pages of, Vision of New Jerusalem: Now! is so provocative and compelling that I almost forgot to look for typos.It becomes very evident that Marty has been a dedicated student of the Bible and has done an impressive amount of research from the time he first became a Christian and has faithfully continued his studies throughout his entire lifetime. It's also evident that he cannot and will not be taught by anyone other than God Himself; what the truth actually is. We can all learn from this!Marty Angelo is also the author of 11 books:

  • Pages : 200 pages

Download or read book Jerusalem written by Moshe Maʻoz and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The material in this publication was compiled over an 18-month period and includes a variety of local, national and international issues and disaggregating Jerusalem's intricate problems. It offers meaningful models that even though they may not yield solutions acceptable to all parties in the Israeli - Palestine conflict, will at least clearly demarcate common ground and draw the 'red lines' that may not (yet) be crossed. The result is an enormously valuable resource that cannot fail to attract the attention of anyone concerned with the future of the Mideast region.

Book Christianity and Jerusalem

Download or read book Christianity and Jerusalem written by Anthony O'Mahony and published by Gracewing. This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CHRISTIANITY IN THE HOLY LAND has found its presence significantly challenged for much of the twentieth century and the whole of the first decade of the twenty-first, from war, interreligious and ethnic conflict, emigration, and a fragmented ecclesiology. As a sacred city Jerusalem has a global significance: for Muslims the Haram-al-Sharif is a symbol of victory; for Jews the Wailing Wall a symbol of loss; and for Christians the Holy Sepulchre a symbol of victory through loss. Theology and politics have interacted in this sacred story. Political theologies remain at least implicit in the histories of all major faith communities: Jewish, Christian and Muslim. For Christianity the Holy Land is not only of local significance, but is of importance to the identity of the two-and-a-half-billion-strong world community of churches which make up Christendom. The contributors to this volume have undertaken a wide-ranging historical, political and theological enquiry into the Christian presence in modern Jerusalem and the Holy Land. The chapters have an ecumenical, even interreligious, instinct and focus. The political landscape is ever changing and, while severely threatening the Christian presence in the Holy Land, continuously challenges and demands a Christian response. The primary responsibility for articulating this Christian response to the political and religious questions has in practice lain with the Christians of the Holy Land, however it cannot be solely their burden. This book bears witness to an ongoing theological reflection whilst its immediate concern in the contemporary significance of Jerusalem has a much wider significance. While bearing witness to an ongoing theological reflection, this book's immediate concern with the contemporary significance of Jerusalem has a much wider resonance. It covers a host of themes - Christianity in modern Jerusalem; contemporary Jewish-Israeli views on Christianity and Christians; Hebrew Catholicism in modern Israel; the Vatican, Israel, Palestinian Christians and Jerusalem; the Intifada and Palestinian Christian identity; Palestinian Christians and liberation theology; the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem - Church-State politics in the Holy Land; indigenisation and contextualisation - the example of the Anglican and Presbyterian Churches in the Holy Land; Jewish fundamentalism; Jewish-Muslim encounter; Jerusalem, the Holy City; a possible way to share Jerusalem in peace; and reflections on the future of Christianity in the Holy Land itself, from a Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem. Contributors include: Anthony O'Mahony, David Mark Neuhaus SJ, Leon Menzies Racionzer, Drew Christiansen SJ, Leonard Marsh, Sotiris Roussos, Michael Marten, Nur Masalha, Rob Johnson, Charles H Miller, Bard Maeland, David Kitching, Archbishop Michel Sabbah
