From Exegesis To Exposition
$32.00
Many seminarians suspect that their courses in Hebrew have little relevance to their current and future ministry. Author Robert Chisholm believes otherwise, and in From Exegesis to Exposition, he shows seminarians and seminary-trained pastors how to preach accurate, informative, and even exciting sermons that are solidly rooted in the Hebrew text and do not require an inordinate amount of time to prepare.
According to Chisholm, too many seminary courses don’t teach students how to make the transfer from parsing verbs to crafting relevant text-based sermons. This practical guide provides a comprehensive corrective, moving readers from the beginning stages of exegesis to the finished sermon.
Designed as a textbook for a second-year Hebrew course, From Exegesis to Exposition
– introduces students to the best language tools (including computer aids)
– guides students in making text-critical decisions
– discusses how to determine the precise meaning of Hebrew words and phrases and how to avoid common mistakes made in word studies
– surveys Hebrew syntax and demonstrates the impact basic grammatical observations can have on exegesis
– explains how a text’s literary form and features influence interpretation
– outlines and illustrates an interpretive method
– includes numerous examples and exercises to guide readers through the exegetical process and give them an opportunity to develop their own skill
– shows students how to construct an exposition from their exegetical work and includes several sample expositions
Chisholm reminds pastors and seminarians that it is never too late to renew their commitment to the importance of using Hebrew in ministry, regain a knowledge of the essentials of the language, and learn how to use the Hebrew Bible effectively.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99Add to cartIn this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.
