Social Systems and Social Conflicts

by K. C. Hanson ...

While history, literature, and theology are important in biblical studies, it is fundamental to recognize that the biblical texts convey meanings derived through a specific culture with distinctive values and particular social arrangements. Ancient documents like the Bible refer to their contemporary social systems only indirectly for the most part. They assume that their readers share their world ... Read more

In these crystalline essays, Walter Brueggemann is that voice again, shaking us free of the dust of our own diminished expectations, bolstering our best instincts, and consistently pointing us ...

Remember You Are Dust

by Walter Brueggemann ...

"Walter Brueggemann is the master of finding fresh and compelling dimensions of meaning in texts so familiar they barely scratch the surface of our consciousness. In this exciting collection, Brueggemann finds that when we admit we are dust, we can be liberated. Why? Because we are free from acting like God. We are free to choose obedience to the one living, true Sovereign. The idols lose their ... Read more

This truth to be uttered and acted, rather, is the enactment and conveyance of this Person who is truth, so ... Read more
