Israel Knohl offers a new perspective on the history and theology of the Priestly source of the Pentateuch. By means of an analysis of specific texts–for example, those that deal with the Sabbath and the Festivals–Knohl demonstrates the existence of two separate Priestly sources, loosely speaking, the two sources that we have referred to as P and the Holiness Code. The “Holiness School” is shown to have been active subsequent to the school that produced the Priestly Torah and, in fact, to … (more)

Xavier Léon-Dufour Retail Price: $16.95 HP Item Number: 63201x ISBN: 156563201x Offering the fruit of a lifetime of systematic study and teaching, one of the foremost gospel scholars of our generation seeks to present the whole message of the gospel in such a way that it can be seen at a glance. Exploring the fundamental experience of Jesus and his relationship to prior Jewish tradition, Léon-Dufour considers such vital domains of human action as money, sexuality, and human relationships—distilling essential principles that will allow Christians today to engage the realities of the modern world. Tempering scholarship with a pastoral tone, he highlights the love and forgiveness at the center of the gospel message.FROM THE PREFACE “This work has actually grown out of a lifetime of experience. It is my attempt to realize a dream I have had since youth: to present the whole message of the gospel in such a way that it can be seen at a glance, so that readers may have at their disposal those gospel texts that should guide their spiritual lives.””As Xavier Léon-Dufour grows older he doesn’t become less of an activist. Rather, his study of the gospels has led him to embrace a decidedly actional response to the teachings of Jesus. To hear and understand the gospel is to act! Léon-Dufour insists that the church in fact be the Church of Jesus Christ, to be open to all people, to rediscover the marginal status of the first Christians, and to renounce its current obsession with temporal power. A wonderfully encouraging book.” —Michael Frost, Morling College, Sydney, co-author of The Shaping of Things to Come and author of Seeing God in the Ordinary“After a long and distinguished career in biblical scholarship, Léon-Dufour gives us a summarizing, moving, and personal statement about bottom-line realities of the gospel. This is an example of superlative biblical theology in the service of faith and obedience. Because Léon-Dufour listens so carefully to Scripture, expounds it so faithfully, and applies it so wisely, this book will prove wonderfully helpful for all who quest after right living in an age of change and confusion.” — Donald A. Hagner, George Eldon Ladd Professor of New Testament, Fuller Theological Seminary, author of Encountering the Book of Hebrews and editor of Conflicts and Challenges in Early Christianity |

De Jesús al cristianismo
Editorial Verbo Divino, 2007
White, L. Michael
Una exhaustiva y asombrosa historia de cómo el cristianismo se desarrolló desde la visión personal de un humilde campesino judío que vivió en una remota provincia del Imperio romano hasta llegar a convertirse en la mayor religión institucionalizada del mundo.
White, que se nutre de las aportaciones hechas por la arqueología y la historia de la cultura, ha ambientado perfectamente la historia de los comienzos del cristianismo en su contexto histórico, tanto judío como grecorromano; en este sentido, la presente obra constituye una excepcional introducción al Nuevo Testamento; de hecho, es la introducción más categóricamente histórica que se ha escrito.

Va letta da destra a sinistra seguendo la direzione dell’ebraico. Conia diversi neologismi che intendono rendere meglio il senso originario;– il testo della Bibbia CEI a piè di pagina con a margine i testi paralleli.Non si tratta di una ‘traduzione’, ma di un ‘aiuto alla traduzione’: un utile strumento di facilitazione e sostegno per affrontare le difficoltà dell’ebraico e introdursi nel testo biblico in lingua originale.

Grammatical Concepts 101 for Biblical Greek
Learning Biblical Greek Grammatical Concepts through English Grammar

ISBN: 1565634063
Bridging the Grammar GapVoice, tense, mood, participles . . . learning biblical Greek is tough enough with a firm grasp of the building blocks of English and daunting to those without. But that’s just where many first-year students are. Through many years in the classroom, veteran language instructor Gary Long has learned that it’s in the first semester that many students get bogged down in grammatical basics. Soon confidence, morale—and then grades—start to slip.
A growing number of students have forgotten, or never learned, the fundamental grammatical concepts needed for studying Biblical Greek. Explanations of these concepts in standard Greek textbooks are either too skimpy or too complex. This practical resource will help.
Written for learners with little or no formal study of grammar, this invaluable complement to standard classroom textbooks clarifies English grammar in order to more effectively teach concepts that are specific to New Testament Greek. Arranged to supplement teaching grammars, each chapter takes up individual concepts, first explaining how the concept works in English, then illustrating its use in biblical Greek.
Abundant English and Greek examples illustrate each concept, most of them visually analyzed. Glossaries and translations help students comprehend the Greek words in each example.
“Gary Long has written a book on a topic that most people would prefer to avoid. We all know that grammar is ‘good for us,’ but we cringe at the prospect at having to relearn everything we learned (or were supposed to learn) in grade school. Add to that the study of a second language – and one as challenging as New Testament Greek – and you have a recipe for disaster. Enter Grammatical Concepts 101 for Biblical Greek. I rate this book as four stars (out of five) because it almost achieves the impossible – it makes grammar as painless as possible. I will definitely recommend it as a reference tool to my Greek students. If anyone wants a concise, easy-to-understand definition of any given part of speech (both in Greek and English), it’s all here!”
—David Alan Black, Professor of New Testament and Greek, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary and author of Learn to Read New Testament Greek.
In Jesus: According to the Earliest Witness, James M. Robinson, one of the premier scholars of the New Testament and the Sayings Gospel Q, asks what we can know of Jesus from what many believe was the earliest written source behind the Gospels.
Over the years perhaps no one has reflected more sensitively and insightfully on the significance of Q for our understanding of earliest Christianity than James M. Robinson….In these essays Robinson exhibits the broad-ranging historical exegesis for which he is so well known, but also with surprising candor, lays out what he thinks it all means and why it is so important to listen to the earliest remembered voice of Jesus.
—Stephen J. Patterson, Professor of New Testament, Eden Theological Seminary
Robinson explores the trajectories in orthodox Christianity and Gnosticism alike, from this early witness to the canonical Gospels and beyond. Surprising insights abound and the author includes an autobiographical essay charting the important currents in New Testament scholarship over the last fifty years.
