  • Does The Jewish Bible Point To Jesus

    Original price was: $15.99.Current price is: $12.97.

    How will we be able to recognize the Messiah?

    Christians claim that Jesus is the Messiah, but how can we know if that is true? Jesus revealed the truth about himself through passages in the Torah, the Prophets, and the Writings–which together comprise the Tanakh (the Old Testament).

    In Does the Jewish Bible Point to Jesus?, Messianic Jewish author David Brickner likewise guides us through twelve prophecies from all three sections of the Tanakh to show:

    *why God promised a Messiah.
    *how God planned to bless the whole world through the Jewish people.
    *the location and strange circumstances of the Messiah’s birth.
    *how and why the Messiah would suffer and die.
    *how the Messiah would exceed human limitations . . . and more.

    You’ll also find stories of contemporary Jewish people who discovered compelling connections to Jesus in their own Bibles.

    Whether you’re curious, skeptical, or a committed believer–if you are in search of truth, this book is for you. Come and see how God’s timeless plan to redeem and renew the world still shines as a beacon of hope today.

  • End Is The Beginning

    $18.99

    Dragons, battles, beasts, and plagues–it’s no wonder Revelation is often called the scariest book in the Bible. And most of us aren’t sure what to make of it.

    What do you think of when you think about the book of Revelation? Prophecy, apocalypse, rapture? While certain evangelicals are steeped in the rhetoric of Revelation (albeit a very particular and peculiar interpretation), the rest of us often have little interaction with Revelation, beyond its fire-and-brimstone reputation. Revelation rarely shows up in the pulpits of mainline Christian churches, and many progressives feel as if Revelation is only for “”the end is near”” apocalyptics or Christian Nationalists and QAnon theorists. But the book of Revelation offers so much more if we’re willing to crack it open in new ways.

    The End Is the Beginning cuts through the echo chamber of rapture-haunted apocalyptic anxiety with a clear picture of God’s persistent love for all that was, and is, and will be. It will serve as a trusted companion, providing tools to carry readers into all corners of Scripture. Pastor and writer Matthew Ian Fleming is a sage Revelation guide, combining his own stories with shared perspectives from an entourage of interpreters of various generations and diverse backgrounds–pastors, theologians, and people of faith–who dare to read Revelation in the face of world-wrenching events, from the fall of the Berlin Wall to the murder of George Floyd. Reading the book of Revelation takes us to the height of heaven and the depths of despair; it requires curiosity and courage. It means standing in the face of a Christian mechanism fueled by fear to reclaim a message of promise and persistence. With equal doses hope and humor, Fleming suggests that if we can contend with Revelation, it really can change everything.

  • Psalms In An Age Of Distraction

    $49.99

    The psalms endure. Throughout the centuries, Christians have read, prayed, and sung this rich collection of poems. But in our current age of distraction, the daily rhythms of modern life revolve more around screens than biblical texts.

    This book argues that the psalms are poetry for the soul, poetry that shapes us. Beyond highlighting the poetry of the Psalter, the book attends to the theological freight of these poems. As such, we learn to read Scripture more attentively and love God and the world well. The first part of the book explores how we can read the psalms amid the pull of modern distractions. The second part moves psalm by psalm, showing what these poems can teach us about living in a more focused, attentive way.

    This engaging book demonstrates how our thoughts, emotions, and worship of the triune God are sharpened and deepened through the psalms. In an era of dimly lit faces and multitasking, the poetry of Psalms remains ready to train our ears, steady our hearts, and teach us to pray so that we might flourish in Christ. The book includes a foreword by Elizabeth Robar.

    Original price was: $19.99.Current price is: $13.97.

    Now available in trade paper!

    Are you or someone you love desperate for a miracle? As witnessed through Scripture, the God who was and is and is to come has been performing miracles from the beginning of time–so you can trust that Jesus wants to do something miraculous in your life today.

    In this follow-up to his book Mysteries of the Messiah, Rabbi Jason Sobel dives deep into Scripture, biblical culture, and ancient texts to help you better understand the truths and the power behind God’s miracles, and to increase your faith that Jesus can perform miracles in your life.

    By taking a deeper look at Yeshua’s miracles, Rabbi Jason reveals promises for all Christ followers based on miracles throughout Scripture:

    *Jesus takes the ordinary and turns it into something extraordinary, because He wants you to live out of His overflow (He turned water into wine).

    *Jesus wants to renew you so that He can do something new in you (He revealed to Nicodemus the miracle of rebirth).

    *You can stop wandering aimlessly or feeling stuck in your current situation, but instead experience abundant life and healing (He healed the man at the Pool of Bethesda).

    *God wants to bless you abundantly so you, in turn, can bless others and sow into His kingdom (Jesus multiplied the loaves and fish).

    As you go on this journey with Rabbi Jason, a Messianic Jew, he is praying that God will lead you to new insights and breakthroughs in your life. And as God reveals Himself to you in a fresh and powerful way, you will be filled with a sense of His presence and shalom.

  • Savior Is Born

    $21.99

    During the Christmas season, even those who do not know Jesus love the lights and songs. And yet to many, this is all that Christmas is about. Even for Christians who genuinely love Jesus, the holiday bustle drowns out the true meaning of the season: Christmas is God’s yearly reminder for sinners to come out of the darkness and into the light.

    A Savior Is Born by William F. Cook III offers a fresh, rigorous, and devotional exploration of the birth and infancy narratives of Jesus Christ. Positioned around the accounts detailed in Matthew and Luke, each chapter exposits the biblical text in a chronological order, exploring its exegetical meaning, Old Testament fulfillment, and ancient customs. In addition to exegetical commentary, each chapter concludes with pastoral reflections and a traditional Christian hymn of response.

    Written by a pastor and biblical scholar, A Savior Is Born is intended for any Christian who wants to dive deep into the passages of Scripture that convey the Christmas story. It is also a valuable resource for church small groups and pastors who want to lead their congregations in a deeper understanding of the Advent season.

  • Great Disappearance : 31 Ways To Be Rapture Ready

    Original price was: $19.99.Current price is: $11.97.

    Now available in trade paper!

    An Instant Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly Bestseller

    The rapture is the central event in biblical prophecy. But what does it mean for us today? How can this crucial end times event draw us nearer to God in a world that is seemingly on the brink of chaos? Political turmoil, economic uncertainty, an ideological divide that feels increasingly impassable–the signs of the times point us toward the end, and that can be disconcerting.

    But the greatest truth about the rapture is not its timing, but its reality–for blessed are all who long for His appearing.

    The Great Disappearance is a culmination of decades of Dr. Jeremiah studying end times throughout the Bible. In this definitive volume he will explain the meaning of the word rapture, the difference between the rapture and the second coming, and the joy of expecting our Savior to come at any given moment. Dr. Jeremiah will also explore key questions such as:

    *Who will be raptured?
    *When will it happen?
    *What will happen to those left behind?
    *What will believers experience when they are taken away to heaven?
    *Will non-believers still have time to repent and be saved?

    Dr. Jeremiah seeks to answer all of those questions and many more, not with sensationalism or stories ripped from the headlines but with solid, biblical truth. Because God has laid out His plan for us in His Word so that we might not be caught unaware. We may not know the exact date that the rapture will happen, but we do know it will happen. Are you ready for it?

  • Trials Of Jesus

    $24.99

    See the Passion narrative like you’ve never seen it before.

    The Gospels describe a complex chain of events from Jesus’s arrest to his crucifixion–interrogations from multiple high priests, a confrontation with Herod the Tetrarch, and finally Pontius Pilate’s unusual hesitancy leading to Jesus’s execution. The narrative raises several questions: Why was Jesus interrogated so many times? Why was he executed not by the high priests, but by the Romans? What are serious readers of Scripture to make of this narrative, central as it is to the Christian faith?

    Paul Barnett sheds light on the story behind the Passion, Resurrection, and the subsequent birth of the church. Barnett fills readers in on the four hundred years of history between Malachi and Matthew, setting the geopolitical stage for the very crux of salvation history. With rich context and expert storytelling, The Trials of Jesus will intrigue and enlighten scholars and everyday Christians alike.

  • Wonders From Your Law

    $40.00

    Finding internal coherence within the Old Testament is a challenging task. Numerous scholars over the centuries have provided various, divergent frameworks to organize the content of the Hebrew Bible. Navigating both the Old Testament itself and the history of its interpretation can feel like a maze of complexity.

    Biblical scholar Kevin Chen offers a way of understanding the Old Testament through the orienting lens of what he calls “nexus passages.” Such passages pull the material of the Old Testament together through their high connectivity to other Scripture passages. In his thorough textual analyses, Chen shows how these nexus passages serve as lexical, thematic, and theological hubs for understanding the Old Testament. Both exegetical and intertextual, Wonders From your Law gazes deeply into the text for a constructive, evangelical approach to Old Testament theology.

  • Knowing God Through The Old Testament

    $50.00

    Christopher J. H. Wright’s Best Loved Books, Now in One Volume

    Combining three volumes into one, Knowing God Through the Old Testament brings together three of Christopher J. H. Wright’s best loved books: Knowing God the Father Through the Old Testament, Knowing Jesus Through the Old Testament, and Knowing the Holy Spirit Through the Old Testament.

    Knowing God the Father Through the Old Testament explores images that pervade the biblical narratives, psalms, and prophetic texts of the Old Testament. God is acknowledged as tender yet terrifying, challenging to the nations, and yet intimately personal, offering loving care, provision, discipline, and forgiveness. This is the God whom Jesus knew, and whom we can know, as Father.

    Knowing Jesus Through the Old Testament uncovers Jesus’ self-understanding as Son of Man and Son of God from his deep roots in the Hebrew Scriptures. As the Jesus who fulfilled the mission that God had given to Israel is revealed, we discover that the more we understand the Old Testament, the closer we come to the heart of Jesus.

    Knowing the Holy Spirit Through the Old Testament traces the Holy Spirit through the pages of the Old Testament. We see the Third Person of the Trinity in the decrees of prophets and psalmists, in the actions of judges and craftspeople, in the anointing of kings, and the promise of a new creation. The witness of the whole of Scripture directs us to a Holy Spirit empowering the people of God, and sustaining and renewing the face of the earth.

    This three-volume work will strengthen and deepen readers’ personal relationships with the triune God by enabling them to know him through deep immersion and engagement with his Word, especially in the less familiar voices of the Old Testament. This is a voyage of biblical discovery, crossing many horizons and exploring especially the sources of our knowledge of God the Holy Trinity-Father, Son and Holy Spirit

  • Christ Crucified : A Theology Of Galatians

    $24.99

    Join New Testament Scholar Thomas Schreiner as He Explores the Meaning and Purpose of Galatians

    In a time marked by confusion and change, the pathway to salvation for the Galatians seemed unclear. While the false teachers contended for circumcision and obedience to the law as necessary for justification before God, Paul presented the truth of the gospel and redrew the lines of salvation around the cross of Jesus Christ.

    In this addition to the New Testament Theology series, scholar Thomas R. Schreiner addresses the conflict between Paul and his opponents in Galatia, examines the gospel itself, and shows what it looks like to live out the truth of the gospel in the new era. After examining the dominant biblical-theological themes of Galatians, readers will be reminded of the gift of grace Christ offers through his death on the cross-the only possible path to salvation and true unity among believers.

    *For Those Interested in Biblical Theology: Ideal for college and seminary students, pastors, and professors

    *Helpful Bible Study Resource: A great companion to commentaries on Galatians

    *Part of the New Testament Theology Series: Other volumes include Ministry in the New Realm; To Walk and to Please God; and more

  • Engaging Jesus With Our Senses

    $24.99

    Jesus took on flesh–he was embodied. And the Gospels use multisensory language to reveal that his teaching, ministry, and interactions with people engaged the senses. Consider the raging storm on the Sea of Galilee, the perfume filling the house as Mary anointed Jesus’s feet, the significance of touch as Jesus healed people. Jesus even described himself in sensory terms–as the bread of life, the light of the world, the vine to whom his disciples are connected. Our physical senses are crucial to gaining knowledge of the world around us. Yet when it comes to Bible reading, we often reduce it to a mere cognitive experience, ignoring the Psalmist’s invitation to “taste and see that the Lord is good.”

    This book offers a fresh way to read the Gospels with an emphasis on embodiment, focused on a life abiding in Christ. The goal is a greater, more tangible knowledge of God. Jeannine Hanger points to the importance of engaging our physical senses in Bible reading, shows an approach to doing so with an emphasis on sparking the imagination, and looks at how utilizing our primary senses plays out in reading the Gospels. Each chapter includes sensory practices and questions for personal reflection. The book includes a foreword by Grant Macaskill.

  • Jesus For Everyone

    $29.99

    Amy-Jill Levine, in Jesus for Everyone, argues that Jesus’ historic and cultural influence makes him fascinating, provocative, and relevant for everyone, not only faithful Christians but nonbelievers as well.

    Two thousand years after his birth and death, Jesus of Nazareth continues to be of vital interest. Yet much of the scholarship around Jesus focuses on his religious significance. Jesus for Everyone examines his most famous teachings from a fresh perspective, exploring how they have continued to shape ethics and civilization in the West for two millennia.

    Even for those who reject faith, Jesus’ life and his philosophy are important to study Levine contends, because of the insights they hold for us today. Poring through scripture, analyzing what historical scholarship has revealed about Jesus’ views on several subjects-including women-reveals surprising messages sure to be fascinating to all readers.

    Placing Jesus of Nazareth within his historical context, Levine brings him vividly into focus and invites agnostics and the most committed nonbelievers to appreciate his lasting impact on the modern world.

  • Exploring The Mind Of God

    $19.99

    God’s Thoughts Toward You Are Filled with Love

    Exploring the Mind of God reveals the thoughts and plans of our Creator-Father as revealed in the deeper meanings of Hebrew words in Scripture, with reflections on related Greek and Aramaic terms as well.

    Hebrew teacher Chaim Bentorah highlights both Old and New Testament passages that reveal the loving nature of God, as opposed to the vindictive nature that is commonly portrayed.

    Chaim says, “The foremost thought that expresses the mind of God toward humanity is His love for us in Christ Jesus.”

    Each of the sixty devotional readings features a specific passage of Scripture, followed by an investigation of key words in the original languages, all pointing to the eternal purposes of our loving heavenly Father. Use as an inspiring daily devotional that will draw you closer to the Lord, a deeper word study into biblical Hebrew, or both.

    You don’t even have to be familiar with a word of Hebrew to be greatly blessed by these insights. Chaim opens up the biblical passages while ultimately pointing us to enter more fully into a loving relationship with our Lord.

  • Modern Genre Theory

    $29.99

    How a better understanding of genre leads to a better understanding of the biblical text.

    The Bible, with its gloriously rich diversity of ancient genres, demands a flexible and historically aware approach to genre. Different conceptions of narrative, poetry, gospel, epistle, wisdom, and apocalyptic texts lead to vastly different readings, and our disagreements about what the Bible means often boil down to different assumptions about what the biblical text is. As secular genre theory has experienced a recent renaissance, biblical studies has been left in the dark ages of rigid taxonomies and stubborn essentialism.

    The Bible deserves better.

    This book offers students in biblical studies an accessible but comprehensive introduction to modern genre theory, providing access to literary tools for understanding how writers and readers use genre to make meaning.

    Modern Genre Theory describes the current state of biblical genre theory (as well as the meaning of form criticism and why it needs to die). Scholar of biblical hermeneutics Andrew Judd then presents a better alternative of interpretation based on the best developments in secular literary theory, linguistics, and rhetorical studies.

    Drawing on advancements in modern genre theory, Judd:

    *Proposes a working definition of genre for biblical studies.

    *Identifies twelve tenets of modern genre theory that follow from seeing genres in their historical and social context.

    *Offers eight case studies in biblical exegesis to show how a better understanding of genre leads to a better understanding of the Bible.

    From the creation accounts of Genesis to the visions of Revelation, it is important to get a handle on genre. This book offers a way to reading the Bible better.

  • Hitchhiking With Prophets

    $14.95

    The Bible is not some dusty textbook, but a veritable circus of humanity, with high-soaring saints, back-talking donkeys, left-handed kingslayers, and all the glory and gore you can fit inside the big top of this biblical tent.

    And everywhere in this story is God who, in his wild and passionate love for humanity, is shepherding history toward the birth and ministry of Jesus the Messiah.

    Do you already have a good grasp of the Old Testament? Wonderful. This book will be an enjoyable review. Do you not know the difference between the Bible and The Hobbit? Also fine. This book will be a helpful map into unknown territory.

    By the time we’re done, you won’t know all the ins and outs of the story, but you will have a strong grasp of the major movers and shakers. We will sit shotgun with patriarchs and prophets. Each one will take us a little farther down the Old Testament road until we get to the goal: to Jesus, the one in whom the whole story finds fulfillment and meaning.

  • Trustworthy : Thirteen Arguments For The Reliability Of The New Testament

    $22.00

    How do we know the New Testament is reliable?

    It matters-but discussions on whether the New Testament is historically accurate can be tedious and overwhelming. We want to be confident that the reports in the New Testament are true and dependable, but scholarly discussions around the authenticity of the events recounted in Scripture can be challenging to navigate.

    Dr. Ben Shaw provides the clear introduction we’ve needed for understanding the New Testament’s historical reliability. In his book, Trustworthy, he systematically surveys key issues related to New Testament reliability and provides guidance for those setting out to explore the evidence. Concise, to-the-point chapters equip readers to answer the challenging questions one encounters when discussing the credibility of the New Testament.

    Here’s the truth: we can trust the New Testament not only for its historical accuracy but also as a guide to life.

  • Why Hell : Three Christian Views Critically Examined

    $22.99

    Most people believe that hell is the final state of the condemned following the final judgment. At the same time, many people cannot comprehend why God created hell for the unsaved. Respected church fathers held a variety of views dating back to the early centuries of the church. This book explains views on why hell exists: unending suffering, the annihilation of the unrepentant, and the rehabilitation of the lost. Most Christians are unaware of the scriptural basis for each of these positions. Why Hell? is meant to educate the interested reader without advocating for any one point of view. The following are some of the book’s features:

    *Biblical vocabulary of hell and positions held throughout early Christian history

    *Positive cases presented on three perspectives: traditionalist, conditionalist, and restorationist

    *Critiques of each view

    *Helpful charts at the back of the book that summarize and cross-examine the arguments for each view

    Steve Gregg provides food for thought for both trained theologians and serious Christian readers who want all the data and then consider for themselves the consequences of three Christian perspectives on hell.

  • 7 Challenges That Shaped The New Testament

    $49.99

    The New Testament writings reflect a sense of wrestling to understand what the world-shattering events of Jesus’s life, death, resurrection, and ascension mean in the rough-and-tumble of daily life in a conflicted world.

    This lively investigation explores the challenges that influenced the New Testament writings and how the writers responded to those tensions. The author shows that out of this upheaval came a remarkable set of creative, dynamic writings that have shaped and challenged millions of lives as sacred Scripture.

    This accessibly written book offers a fresh way to learn about the world and content of the New Testament writings. It will help readers appreciate the rich diversity of New Testament thought cohering around commitment to the one Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

  • Embedded Genres In The New Testament

    $39.99

    Recognizing what we are reading–the genre–is crucial for understanding any written work, including the books of the New Testament. However, we may not always realize we use genre categories as we interpret, whether explicitly or implicitly. Embedded genres, or genres within genres, can substantively impact the interpretation of an entire New Testament book.

    This short, accessible book by a widely respected scholar and seasoned teacher introduces embedded genres, their impact on New Testament interpretation, and how they contribute to the message of the New Testament authors. Jeannine Brown offers hermeneutical guidance for interpreting embedded genres and explores the hermeneutical questions they raise. She focuses on three case studies of embedded genres that have been contested, underidentified, or underappreciated across the New Testament corpus: the Christ poem in Philippians 2, riddles in Matthew, and the household code in 1 Peter.

    Students of the New Testament, pastors, and ministry leaders will value this work.

  • Treasury Of David Volume 1

    $24.99

    The Treasury of David is quite unique in its composition as Spurgeon spent countless hours in libraries searching through the annals of eminent Christian authors throughout Church history for the choice comments he included with each verse of every Psalm-such as, Jonathan Edwards, Augustine, Thomas Brooks, Martin Luther, John Bunyan, Athanasius, Josephus, John Calvin, Thomas Goodwin, Richard Baxter, William Jay, John Trapp, Richard Hooker, William Gurnall, and many more. Upon completion of this work, Spurgeon comments, “The Book of Psalms instructs us in the use of wings as well as words. It sets us both mounting and singing. If I may only hope that these volumes will be as useful to other hearts in the reading as to mine in the writing, I shall be well rewarded by the prospect.”

    One of Spurgeon’s pastoral successors at the Metropolitan Tabernacle, Eric Hayden, once called this “Spurgeon’s Magnus Opus,” and his wife, Suzannah, remarked that if her husband had never written any other work, this would have been “a permanent literary memorial.”

    The publishers at Bridge Logos have republished this superb set from the original 1885 first edition in an easy-to-read 10-volume set which is conveniently divided into volumes that reflect the biblical delineation of the Five Books of the Psalms-and includes a biography of C. H. Spurgeon, by Pure Gold Classics editor, Gene Fedele. “This extraordinary set of commentaries on the Psalms, from one of the Church’s last eminent ‘Puritans,’ has educated and inspired generations of Christians since its first release, nearly 150 years ago, and it is our hope and prayer that through this “Treasure” many more will be richly blessed and encouraged in their faith, now and for generations to come,” comments Fedele.

  • Conquerors Not Captives

    $16.99

    *Discover good news for the Christian life
    *Understand how Christ has defeated sin’s power
    *Identify the “wretch” in Romans 7

    Is the Christian battle against sin a long defeat?

    In Conquerors, Not Captives, Joseph R. Dodson and Mattie Mae Motl challenge the popular view that Romans 7:14-25 describes the typical Christian battle against sin. The “wretched man” of Romans 7 seems unable to do what God’s law demands and, for many Christians, his inner conflict and turmoil seem all too relatable. But are we impotent before sin and powerless to do good? When we reexamine Romans 7 in light of Paul’s writings elsewhere and his interpreters throughout church history, we encounter better news.

    Conquerors, Not Captives is an accessible and thoughtful study that rebukes our gloomy expectations and invites us to take seriously the Bible’s assurances that the Holy Spirit frees us from sin’s power.

  • Knowing El Kanna Our Jealous God

    $16.99

    In Knowing El Kanna: Our Jealous God, renowned author Charles Simpson explores the lesser-known name of God, El Kanna, translated as The Jealous God.

    While the notion of jealousy is often associated with sin, Simpson reveals how God’s jealousy over His people can be a righteous and transformative force. Drawing from biblical teachings, Simpson unravels the connection between idol worship and the jealousy of God. He highlights how idolatry, which extends beyond physical objects to encompass desires that supersede our devotion to God, grieves His heart. As the New Testament expands the definition of idolatry to include covetousness, Simpson empowers readers to identify and overcome the idols that hinder their relationship with the Almighty.

    Knowing El Kanna not only exposes the idols in our lives but also provides practical guidance on how to free ourselves from their grip once and for all. With a deeply personal touch, Simpson parallels his own journey of overcoming idols with the nation of Israel’s historical struggles, taking readers on a transformative exploration from Genesis through Revelation.

    In God Cares Enough: The Message of Jonah, author L. Edward Hazelbaker delves into the central theme of God’s boundless care for both His followers and His enemies, extending to all of Creation.

    Through the story of Jonah, Hazelbaker explores the depth of God’s love and His relentless pursuit of reconciliation. Jonah, a man who had previously experienced a close relationship with God and had been an instrument of His will, is called to a new and challenging task by the Lord.

    This book powerfully demonstrates that God goes to great lengths to address and transform these ungodly attitudes in His people. Within the pages of God Cares Enough readers not only witness the Lord’s dealings with Jonah but also uncover God’s genuine emotions and His intentions for His followers and the future of the world.

  • Moral Vision Of Proverbs

    $69.99

    Wisdom literature is an unfamiliar genre to modern readers and presents many interpretive challenges. In this major new work, respected wisdom scholar Timothy Sandoval argues that the book of Proverbs, though difficult to access for some, provides a coherent moral vision for human flourishing.

    The approach Sandoval argues for in The Moral Vision of Proverbs is that of virtue ethics, or character ethics, particularly that which emerges from the classical tradition of Aristotle (as opposed to reading the book, intentionally or unintentionally, through the lenses of modern ethical systems). Sandoval engages with specialists in this ethical tradition as well as biblical scholars to make his case that Proverbs is an ancient, virtue-oriented moral discourse.

    This comprehensive critical study of Proverbs analyzes the book’s major topics and strives to discern the moral and philosophical presuppositions and logic of its rhetoric, all the while engaging past and present interpretive approaches. Although authored by a Christian scholar, this text will be of great interest to a broadly ecumenical audience, whether students of the Old Testament/Tanakh/Hebrew Bible, biblical scholars, or Christian ethicists and moral theologians.

  • People Of The Parables

    $45.00

    Drawing from Greco-Roman history, Second-Temple Jewish studies, archaeology, the social world of the New Testament, parable studies, and the burgeoning literature on Galilee, The People of the Parables describes life in first-century Galilee as it was experienced by the characters in Jesus’ parables.

    R. Alan Culpepper assesses both primary literature and recent research on Galilee–including important archaeological discoveries–and fashions a new and insightful social history of Galilee, the people of the parables, and the historical context of Jesus’ ministry.

    Culpepper builds this history by elucidating the lives of first-century Galileans featured in Jesus’ parables: children, women, daughters, mothers, widows, fathers, sons, landowners, tenants, day laborers, debtors, farmers, fishermen, shepherds, merchants, travelers, innkeepers, masters, slaves, tax collectors, judges, Pharisees, priests, Levites, Samaritans, bandits, and, finally, Jesus. Who these people were–their place in Galilean society, how they lived, socialized, worshiped, and conducted business; how they were educated–is described in straightforward, nontechnical language. Culpepper brings new meanings to the parables for today’s readers by shedding light on the people of Galilee in the time of Jesus.

  • Proclaiming The Parables

    $50.00

    In Proclaiming the Parables, noted preacher and scholar Thomas G. Long moves away from past treatment of the parables primarily as literary devices and moves toward an emphasis on their theological impact as pointers to the kingdom of God.

    While the parables are indeed significant poetic literary creations that have enchanted readers over the centuries, their main power, he claims, lies in their disclosure of the kingdom of God, which is not merely an idea, nor even just a complex symbol with generative and centrifugal force, but an event: the inbreaking of the life of God into human history and experience.

    Long sees parables not merely as creative figures of speech but as GPS devices taking hearers to those places where the event of God is happening all around us. This book provides two chapters for each synoptic Gospel. The first focuses on the Gospel as a whole and the parables’ place in it, and the second provides preachers and teachers with detailed exegetical and homiletical commentary for each major parable in that Gospel. Two introductory chapters additionally situate this book in the history and theology of the parables’ interpretation and address questions that preachers have about preaching the parables. Preachers who consult this volume will be informed about each major parable, guided through the controversies regarding interpretation, and stimulated to preach on the parable in fresh, faithful, and creative ways.

    What is the nature of successful living?

    What does it mean to achieve a good life? The Old Testament wisdom literature–Proverbs, Job, and Ecclesiastes–provides perceptive answers to these questions. Though sometimes neglected, this genre, consisting of short sayings and lengthy reflective writings, offers readers thoughtful instructions for living. In this volume of the Reading and Interpreting the Bible Series, A. Wendell Bowes expertly guides readers in interpreting these insightful writings and applying their lessons to everyday life. From exploring the ancient Near Eastern background of these writings to providing interpretations of sample texts, Dr. Bowes has crafted a practical handbook for anyone wanting to study this rich and astute biblical literature. Reading the Bible with understanding is challenging. Without sound guidance, making sense of the different literary types, settings, and cultures found in the Scriptures can be overwhelming.

Each volume concentrates on a specific literary type found in the Bible, highlighting its features and function. Social, political, and religious settings are examined, and a critical analysis of the biblical text brings to light its message and relevance for today. Readers will find in these volumes numerous illustrations of how to interpret specific texts, which can be used as a pattern for individual or group Bible studies.

  • Armageddon : What The Bible Really Says About The End

    $17.99

    You’ll find nearly everything the Bible says about the end in the Book of Revelation: a mystifying prophecy filled with bizarre symbolism, violent imagery, mangled syntax, confounding contradictions, and very firm ideas about the horrors that await us all. But no matter what you think Revelation reveals–whether you read it as a literal description of what will soon come to pass, interpret it as a metaphorical expression of hope for those suffering now, or only recognize its highlights from pop culture–you’re almost certainly wrong.

    In Armageddon, acclaimed New Testament authority Bart D. Ehrman delves into the most misunderstood–and possibly most dangerous–book of the Bible, on a “vigilantly persuasive” ( The Washington Post) tour through three millennia of Judeo-Christian thinking about how our world will end. With wit and verve, he explores the alarming social and political consequences of expecting an imminent apocalypse, considers whether the message of Revelation may be at odds with the teachings of Jesus, and offers inspiring insight into how to live in the face of an uncertain future.

    By turns hilarious, moving, troubling, and provocative, Armageddon is nothing short of revelatory in its account of what the Bible really says about the end.
