John Explained: Understanding the Book and Its Message for Today: 8 (The Bible for Modern Life Series) - Softcover
Book 8 of 10: The Bible for Modern Life Series
Synopsis
Of the four Gospels, John is the one that begins before the world did. Where Mark opens mid-action and Matthew opens with a genealogy and Luke opens with a carefully composed prologue, John opens in eternity: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John Explained walks readers through the most theologically developed of the four Gospels — its world, its structure, its seven signs, its I am declarations, and its most searching demands. It examines why John's Jesus speaks in sustained discourse rather than brief pronouncements, why the raising of Lazarus is placed where it is, why the cross in John is glorification rather than defeat, and why the Gospel was written explicitly for people who were not there — which is every reader since the first century.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Of all the books of the Bible, Leviticus is the one most readers intend to read and fewest actually finish. Where Genesis pulls readers forward with the momentum of origins and Exodus with the drama of liberation, Leviticus stops the narrative almost entirely and replaces it with legislation - sacrificial procedures, priestly regulations, purity codes, and a holiness code whose demands range from the structure of worship to the treatment of employees to the prohibition of revenge.But Leviticus occupies this position in the Torah for a reason. Israel has just been liberated from Egypt. The tabernacle has been built. The glory of God has filled it. And now the most urgent practical question in the ancient world must be answered: how does a finite, mortal, sinful people live in the immediate proximity of a holy God without being consumed Leviticus Explained walks readers through the historical setting, literary structure, and major themes of the book - from the sacrificial system and the Day of Atonement to the Jubilee and the holiness code's sweeping social ethics. It examines what the book meant in its original context and why its most demanding claims still press on communities of faith today.Part of The Bible for Modern Life Series.
