1 and 2 Samuel
The stories of Samuel, Saul, and David are among the most memorable in the Old Testament, yet they are bound up in the larger story of God's purpose for his people. In this Tyndale Commentary, V. Philips Long explores the meaning of the biblical history of Israel's vital transition from a confederation of tribes to nationhood under a king.
Woe-Speeches within the Context of an Oracular Inquiry
Michael H. Floyd explores how the woe-speeches in Habakkuk 2:6-20 are related in form and content to the message revealed to the prophet in Hab 2:1-5, defending his reading through spirited debate with other scholars who have similarly proposed a fresh take on various exegetical puzzles of Chapter 2. After assessing the preceding material in Habakkuk 2 as the necessary prelude to analyzing the woe-speeches themselves, Floyd explores the form and function of the woe-speeches themselves, in light of how they fit into the unfolding composition of the oracular report that makes up Habakkuk 2. He further brings together and systematizes previous observations about the rhetoric of reproof, arguing...
Until He Comes
"Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand." (James 5:8) Contrary to popular belief, the primary purpose of studying the end times is not to gain knowledge of what will come, but to gain knowledge of Jesus. We study biblical prophecy not to predict the future, but to understand God's heart and His purposes, and to be transformed into the image of Christ. To love the Lord is to love His return. At this hour, Jesus is drawing the bride close to His heart, emphasizing the hope of His coming, and equipping her for glory and crisis. In short, God wants a people prepared. This comprehensive book will help you anchor your faith in the eternal truth of God's Word, teaching you how...
Believe the Unbelievable: A Study in Habakkuk
What do we do when God's actions or words contradict our understanding, contradict what we have believed? The book of Habakkuk answers this question in the face of the Babylonian invasion of Judah. Habakkuk is a book of discipleship, a book written to bring its reader to a deeper faith in Yahweh in the presence of His unthinkable deeds.
The Gift of Seeing
Throughout the history of the Church, Christian theology has been waged on the battlefield of ontology. Ontology touches on nearly every aspect of intellectual engagement, and so our conclusions in this area are far-reaching. Ontology, is usually considered the study of "being" or "reality." Yet even this definition presupposes a non-Christian view of reality. Rather, ontology investigates the connection between our thoughts and reality, between what we believe and truth, and between language and the things to which it refers. The Bible has much to say on these topics; retrieving a Biblical perspective on these matters is essential if we are going to rightly understand theology, the Bible, and the world we live in. We will see that only the Bible can offer a coherent vision of reality and a way of appropriately understanding God, history, and the world around us.
Habakkuk
It is all to common to find commentaries that miss the forest for the trees, commentaries that get so caught up in the minutiae of scholarly controversies that they miss what God is saying for His church today. This is especially evident when it comes to the book of Habakkuk. The Teleioteti Old Testament Commentaries series is an attempt to attain theological depth, to pay attention to the forest, without neglecting the details of the text, without missing the trees. To do this, a Teleioteti Old Testament Commentary seeks to bring scholarly rigour and thoughfulness together with faithful attention to the purpose and significance of each book for God's people today. It strikes a balance betwe...
The Trinity and the Bible
To write on the Trinity is to enter a minefield of presuppositions-presuppositions of theology, exegesis, grammar, logic, philosophy, etc. However, at the heart of Godʹs self-revelation in the Bible is God's tri-unity, that God is three, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Confessional Christians would identify this claim, that God is Triune, as a necessary condition of true Christian faith. To be Christian is to follow Christ who is the 2nd person of the Trinity. Yet, does following this Christ mean following the 2nd hypostasis who is eternally begotten of the Father, sharing with him his ousia? That is a more difficult question, isn't it? Indeed, many faithful men and women in my life could not...
Deuteronomy
Each volume of A Journal for the Hebrew Scriptures presents the Hebrew text of a section of the Old Testament according to the Leningrad Codex (consonants and vocalization but no accents or verse and chapter markers) with room for note-taking and marking up the passage. The goal of each volume is to make reading Hebrew an enjoyable experience and to facilitate engagement with the Biblical text in the original languages. Paper: B/W, 50lb/74gsm Crème Paper Language: Hebrew (English Introduction) Hebrew Font: 16 point, Times New Roman Page Layout: Single Column Size: 6 x 9″ (229 x 152mm) Hebrew Text: Unicode/XML Leningrad Codex 1.1, itself a version of the WLC 4.20. The text has been selectively checked against various print and digital forms of the BHS and WLC. For additional details on the features and editorial decisions involved in this project, see our project page over at teleioteti.ca, https: //teleioteti.ca/resources/books/a-journal-for-the-hebrew-scriptures/.
The Gift of Reading - Part 2
If the Word of God is our anchor in the chaos of this world, if it is our assurance that we can know the world and God its Creator, we need confidence that we can understand this Word. Reading and applying the Bible is essential to every facet of Christian life and ministry, yet our ability to do so is under attack from a myriad of directions. In Postmodern philosophy, the possibility of communication is dismissed, let alone communication from God. In Biblical studies, the amount of knowledge required to come to firm conclusions concerning the meaning and application of the Bible grows every day. However, the Bible is not so pessimistic about its accessibility. Instead, it presents itself as...
The Trinity and the Bible
Jesus' Apostles freely identify the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as the One God, Yahweh, and for 3/4 of their history, Christians have read the OT as thoroughly Trinitarian. This book explores the testimony of all Scripture to the Triune God.
