Download or read book Pentateuco La Biblia Hebrea en perspectiva latinoamericana written by Alejandro Félix Botta and published by Editorial Verbo Divino. This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Torá en la tradición judía, el Pentateuco en la cristiana, contiene las tradiciones fundacionales de Israel, cuyo impacto en Occidente se extiende mucho más allá del ámbito religioso para abarcar tanto sistemas éticos y filosóficos como las artes plásticas y la literatura. Desde los mitos creacionales del Génesis, pasando por las tradiciones patriarcales, la epopeya liberadora del éxodo de Egipto, la recepción de la Torá en el monte Sinaí y las codificaciones cúlticas y legales posteriores, el Pentateuco se actualiza hoy a través de la predicación en miles de púlpitos en sinagogas y en iglesias. Este primer volumen (Pentateuco) de "La Biblia Hebrea en perspectiva latinoamericana" es una guía de lectura elaborada desde la hermenéutica liberacionista latinoamericana, una corriente interpretativa que se gestó en Sudamérica y que marca diferencias con las tradiciones exegéticas y teológicas de Europa y Estados Unidos.

Download or read book Latinxs the Bible and Migration written by Efraín Agosto and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-27 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the conjunction between migration and biblical texts with a focus on Latinx histories and experiences. Essays reflect upon Latinxs, the Bible, and migration in different ways: some consider how the Bible is used in the midst of, or in response to, Latinx experiences and histories of migration; some use Latinx histories and experiences of migration to examine Biblical texts in both First and Second Testaments; some consider the “Bible” as a phenomenological set of texts that respond to and/or compel migration. Cultural, literary, and postcolonial theories inform the analysis, as does the exploration of how migrant groups themselves scripturalize their biblical and cultural texts.

Download or read book Daughters of Wisdom written by Ahida Calderón Pilarski and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-06-22 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a window into current realities regarding women's leadership in the global church and explores strategic recommendations to nurture this leadership in the twenty-first century. The essays in this volume were initially presented at an international conference organized by the Center for World Catholicism and Intercultural Theology (CWCIT) at DePaul University in 2018. The reference to "Daughters of Wisdom" in the title for this volume was aimed at capturing the diversity of ways which women have found to exercise their leadership in responding to the challenging and/or hopeful realities of their contextual locations and their faith and social communities. The authors address particularly different aspects of women's leadership in the Catholic Church, with a special emphasis on the global South. The contributors are lay and religious people from India, Nigeria, Mexico, Venezuela, Peru, the US, Singapore, and the Philippines. The topics explored in this volume include women's use of Scripture, the ecclesiological basis for women in church leadership, and the leadership roles that women have been exercising already in grassroots church communities, in Marian devotion, in faith-based social movements, and in theological education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Pact of Love with Criticism, A Pact of Blood with the World Building on the legacy of Fernando F. Segovia, the pioneering essays in this volume redefine the intersection of biblical studies and geopolitics. Through a thorough exploration of how ancient texts and modern readers influence and reflect geopolitical dynamics, each contributor reveals how biblical narratives have shaped and been shaped by historical power structures, territorial conflicts and climate changes, and cultural exchanges. Essays employ contemporary geopolitical concepts that move beyond traditional readings to offer fresh insights into the strategic and ideological forces behind scriptural texts. An annotated interview with Fernando F. Segovia traces his immigration journey as an adolescent and its indelible imprint on his scholarship as a postcolonial critic.

Download or read book Migrating Faith written by Daniel Ramírez and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2015-09-14 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daniel Ramirez's history of twentieth-century Pentecostalism in the U.S.-Mexico borderlands begins in Los Angeles in 1906 with the eruption of the Azusa Street Revival. The Pentecostal phenomenon--characterized by ecstatic spiritual practices that included speaking in tongues, perceptions of miracles, interracial mingling, and new popular musical worship traditions from both sides of the border--was criticized by Christian theologians, secular media, and even governmental authorities for behaviors considered to be unorthodox and outrageous. Today, many scholars view the revival as having catalyzed the spread of Pentecostalism and consider the U.S.-Mexico borderlands as one of the most important fountainheads of a religious movement that has thrived not only in North America but worldwide. Ramirez argues that, because of the distance separating the transnational migratory circuits from domineering arbiters of religious and aesthetic orthodoxy in both the United States and Mexico, the region was fertile ground for the religious innovation by which working-class Pentecostals expanded and changed traditional options for practicing the faith. Giving special attention to individuals' and families' firsthand accounts and tracing how a vibrant religious music culture tied transnational communities together, Ramirez illuminates the interplay of migration, mobility, and musicality in Pentecostalism's global boom.

Download or read book Word as Bread written by Peter J. Casarella and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the Verbum speculation of Nicholas of Cusa. The investigation concentrates equally on the concept of language that he inherited from medieval and Quattrocento sources and on the Christian theology of the Word that he wove together using his own resources and distinctive approaches. It includes a consideration of the resonances between Gadamer's hermeneutical theory and Cusanus's unfolding of a productive and rhetorically-oriented concept of the Word. The next section offers a detailed examination of the medieval and humanistic sources for his theology of the Word, paying special attention to Albertism, Ramon Llull, and the role played by Heymeric of Camp. This study highlights a development in Cusanus's thought that takes place after 1450 towards a speculative synthesis of human ars through the semiotic appearance of the power and intentionality of the word. It is also argued that even in the late works Cusanus does not submit to the nominalist tendencies of the via moderna. A penultimate section offers a detailed study of the role of faith in the acceptance of the divine Word. Cusanus fuses the unformed discursive knowledge that is known by analogy with the formal certainty received through intellectual vision. Faith and speculative knowledge unite to lead the believer beyond the images that words convey to the unifying image of the divine Word. The last section reviews recent literature on language and theology in Nicholas of Cusa and indicates a path as to how research on the speculative thought of Cusanus and on intercultural theology could move forward together in the future.

Download or read book Introducci n a la Biblia Hebrea written by Samuel Pagán and published by Editorial CLIE. This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un libro magistral de introducción a esa gran pieza de literatura, documento espiritual y patrimonio universal: la Biblia hebrea o Antiguo Testamento. Pensado y escrito con la idea de aportar una herramienta eficaz en los procesos de comprensión y actualización de sus enseñanzas. No persigue una exégesis extensa y exhaustiva, solo pretende identificar los temas principales y conflictivos, analizarlos, y proporcionar al estudiante las pautas necesarias para su adecuado discernimiento y consecuente contextualización. Ha sido concebido para responder a una necesidad latente y creciente en las instituciones educativas cristianas (universidades, seminarios teológicos, institutos bíblicos, escuelas bíblicas y círculos de estudio y oración) dentro de ese extenso y complejo ámbito que es el mundo cristiano de habla castellana: América Latina, el Caribe, España y las comunidades latinas en los Estados Unidos. Redactado con el propósito de aportar luz a ese vasto y maravilloso, pero a veces un tanto oscuro universo espiritual, teológico, literario e histórico que son las Escrituras judías. A ello contribuye sustancialmente la personalidad de su autor, que además de ser puertorriqueño, caribeño y latinoamericano, pastor y teólogo, es profesor de Biblia y literatura hebrea en el Colegio Universitario Dar al-Kalima en Belén, y ha escrito la presente obra desde la Tierra Santa, específicamente desde Jerusalén, donde reside. Ello permite, por un lado, que además de los temas tradicionales tratados en las introducciones bíblicas, (históricos, teológicos, de género literario) se enfaticen y exploren también otros temas que tienen particular relevancia para el ministerio entre líderes de habla castellana (como la situación de pobreza, desesperanza y miseria en nuestro continente); y se tomen en consideración los aspectos, desafíos y preocupaciones, que tienen pertinencia e inmediatez en las comunidades eclesiales e iglesias hispanoparlantes.
