    Genesis 12-50

    Volume 2

    Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture

    Edited by Mark Sheridan
    General Editor Thomas C. Oden

    Genesis 12–50 recounts the history of the patriarchs—Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph. From their mentors Paul, Peter, Stephen, and the author of the letter to the Hebrews, the early fathers learned to draw out the spiritual significance of the patriarchal narrative for Christian believers. The Alexandrian school especially followed Paul's allegorical use of the story of Sarah ...

    Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture

    Edited by Marco Conti
    General Editor Thomas C. Oden

    The church fathers, as they did in earlier books dealing with Israel's history from the time of Joshua to the united monarchy, found ample material for typological and moral interpretation in 1-2 Kings, 1-2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah and Esther. It will be immediately clear to readers of this volume that they gave much more attention to 1-2 Kings than to others; whether this was ...

    Unceasing Kindness

    A Biblical Theology of Ruth

    New Studies in Biblical Theology

    by Peter Lau and Gregory Goswell
    Series edited by D. A. Carson

    The Old Testament book of Ruth is understandably a firm favorite in the church for small-group study and preaching: a heart-warming story of loyalty and love, a satisfying tale of a journey from famine to fullness. In the academy, the book has been a testing ground for a variety of hermeneutical approaches, and many different ways of interpreting it have been put forward. However, the single interpretative ...

    Christianity Today Biblical Studies Award of Merit

    For centuries the story of Adam and Eve has resonated richly through the corridors of art, literature and theology. But for most moderns, taking it at face value is incongruous. And even for many thinking Christians today who want to take seriously the authority of Scripture, insisting on a "literal" understanding ...

    Freeing Congregational Mission

    A Practical Vision for Companionship, Cultural Humility, and Co-Development

    by B. Hunter Farrell
    With Shankur Balajiedlang Khyllep

    There is a deepening crisis in mission as practiced by North American congregations. Many mission activities are more effective at satisfying church members than making a lasting difference, producing what's too often consumer-oriented "selfie mission." Too much effort is based on colonial-era assumptions of mission launched from a position of power. These practices are not just ...
