H. Daniel Zacharias presents a literary-critical analysis of the
Gospel of Matthew and its interaction with Davidic tradition and
use of Davidic typology. Throughout the narrative, the evangelist
makes pervasive use of Davidic tradition from the Old Testament in
his portrayal of Jesus. This begins from the first verse and the
declaration that Jesus is the Son of David, and culminates in
Jesus' usage of Psalm 22's Davidic lament on the cross. Davidic
material is present throughout Matthew, in allusion, in specific
citations, in thematic material. In addition, Matthew makes use of
Davidic typology numerous times, with David as type and Jesus as
anti-type. Zacharias shows how the use of Davidic material presents
to the reader a scripturally-grounded redefinition of what it means
for Jesus to be the Son of David: not as a violent militant leader,
as some expected, but as a physical descendant of David, a healing
shepherd, and a humble king. Within the Gospel, Matthew utilizes
Davidic typology to show how the Son of David even has similar
experiences as his royal predecessor. Even David's own words from
the psalms are utilized as testimony to the legitimacy of Jesus as
the Davidic Messiah.
This is a fascinating collection of essays that builds upon the
growing interest in manuscripts as artifacts and witnesses to early
stages in Jewish and Christian understanding of sacred
scripture."Jewish and Christian Scripture as Artifact and Canon"
constitutes a collection of studies that reflect and contribute to
the growing scholarly interest in manuscripts as artifacts and
witnesses to early stages in Jewish and Christian understanding of
sacred scripture.Scholars and textual critics have in recent years
rightly recognized the contribution that ancient manuscripts make
to our understanding of the development of canon in its broadest
and most inclusive sense. The studies included in this volume shed
significant light on the most important questions touching the
emergence of canon consciousness and written communication in the
early centuries of the Christian church. The concern here is not in
recovering a theoretical 'original text' or early 'recognized
canon,' but in analysis of and appreciation for texts as they
actually circulated and were preserved through time. Some of the
essays in this collection explore the interface between canon as
theological concept, on the one hand, and canon as reflected in the
physical/artifactual evidence, on the other.Other essays explore
what the artifacts tell us about life and belief in early
communities of faith. Still other studies investigate the visual
dimension and artistic expressions of faith, including theology and
biblical interpretation communicated through the medium of art and
icon in manuscripts. The volume also includes scientific studies
concerned with the physical properties of particular manuscripts.
These studies will stimulate new discussion in this important area
of research and will point students and scholars in new directions
for future work."The Library of Second Temple Studies" is a premier
book series that offers cutting-edge work for a readership of
scholars, teachers, postgraduate students and advanced
undergraduates in the field of Second Temple studies. All the many
and diverse aspects of Second Temple study are represented and
promoted, including innovative work from historical perspectives,
studies using social-scientific and literary theory, and developing
theological, cultural and contextual approaches.
Scholarly interest in intertextuality remains as keen as ever.
Armed with new questions, interpreters seek to understand better
the function of older scripture in later scripture. The essays
assembled in the present collection address these questions. These
essays treat pre-Christian texts, as well as Christian texts, that
make use of older sacred tradition. They analyze the respective
uses of scripture in diverse Jewish and Christian traditions. Some
of these studies are concerned with discreet bodies of writings,
such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, while others are concerned with
versions of scriptures, such as the Hebrew or Old Greek, and text
critical issues. Other studies are concerned with how scripture is
interpreted as part of apocalyptic and eschatology. Early Christian
Literature and Intertextuality includes essays that explore the use
of Old Testament scripture in the Gospels and Acts. Other studies
examine the apostle Paul's interpretation of scripture in his
letters, while other studies look at non-Pauline writings and their
utilization of scripture. Some of the studies in this collection
show how older scripture clarifies important points of teaching or
resolves social conflict. Law, conversion, anthropology, paradise,
and Messianism are among the themes treated in these studies,
themes rooted in important ways in older sacred tradition. The
collection concludes with studies on two important Christian
interpreters, Syriac-speaking Aphrahat in the east and
Latin-speaking Augustine in the west. [Part of the LNTS sub series
Studies in Scripture in Early Judaism and Christianity (SSEJC),
volume 14]
This detailed volume explores methods and protocols that aim to
increase our understanding of how cells enter a quiescent state
during homeostasis and how cells exit quiescence and re-enter
differentiating cell divisions to restore damaged tissues,
essential for developing new approaches in regenerative medicine in
the future. The chapters in this book were designed to address
cellular quiescence in prokaryote and eukaryote organisms,
detection of quiescence (Hoechst/pyronin Y, FUCCI, CFSE, BrdU,
H2B-GFP, CyTOF), quiescence in stem cells (skin, intestinal,
neuronal, hematopoietic), genomic regulation (gene expression,
transcription factors, lncRNA, RNA methylation), as well as
analysis of the heterogeneity of quiescence by computer modeling.
Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology
series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics,
lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step,
readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on
troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and
practical, Cellular Quiescence: Methods and Protocols offers a
broad view of basic and cutting-edge technology to inspire research
in this emerging field of cell biology.

Named One of Fifteen Important Theology Books of 2022, Englewood
Review of Books This volume by a Cherokee teacher, former pastor,
missiologist, and historian brings Indigenous theology into
conversation with Western approaches to history and theology.
Written in an accessible, conversational style that incorporates
numerous stories and questions, this book exposes the weaknesses of
a Western worldview through a personal engagement with Indigenous
theology. Randy Woodley critiques the worldview that undergirds the
North American church by dismantling assumptions regarding early
North American histories and civilizations, offering a comparative
analysis of worldviews, and demonstrating a decolonized approach to
Christian theology. Woodley explains that Western theology has
settled for a particular view of God and has perpetuated that basic
view for hundreds of years, but Indigenous theology originates from
a completely different DNA. Instead of beginning with God-created
humanity, it begins with God-created place. Instead of emphasizing
individualism, it emphasizes a corporateness that encompasses the
whole community of creation. And instead of being about the next
world, it is about the tangibility of our lived experiences in this
present world. The book encourages readers to reject the many
problematic aspects of the Western worldview and to convert to a
worldview that is closer to that of both Indigenous traditions and
Jesus.
Seminary can be rich and rewarding, but also disorienting. In
addition to the typical challenges of doing graduate studies, your
experiences in seminary affect how you see God, other people, and
yourself. The stakes are high, but the good news is that you're not
alone on this journey. In Surviving and Thriving in Seminary, two
experienced professors (and former seminary students) guide you
through what to expect and how to navigate your years in seminary.

The Last of the Mohicans is the most widely-read and internationally acclaimed of James Fenimore Cooper's Leatherstocking tales, and has traditionally been regarded as an exciting and well-made adventure story. In recent years, however, critics have found in this classic tale of colonial warfare deeper levels of meaning. In the introduction to this volume, H. Daniel Peck studies these developments by tracking critical responses to the novel from the time of its publication in 1826 to the present day. The essays that follow present contemporary reassessments of The Last of the Mohicans from a variety of critical perspectives.

The difference in the practical approach to teaching philosophy can
mean the difference between an engaging class and an excruciating
one. In this expanded edition of In the Socratic Tradition (1997)
Kasachkoff adds new sections on teaching philosophy with computers,
teaching philosophical explanation, and teaching philosophy of
gender. Chapters in the collection share the pedagogical insights
of more than two dozen distinguished philosophers, offering
practical suggestions on such issues as how to motivate students,
construct syllabi and creative examinations for specific courses,
and teach complex philosophical concepts. Like its predecessor,
Teaching Philosophy will be an indispensable resource for teachers
of all levels and fields of philosophy, and will be particularly
helpful in lending inspiration to graduate students and professors
called upon to teach courses outside of their specialty areas.
Internationally respected scholar Richard Bauckham offers a brief,
engaging study of divine revelation in Scripture. He probes the
deep meaning of well-known moments in the biblical story in order
to address the key question the Bible is designed to answer: Who is
God? Accessible for laypeople and important to scholars, this
volume begins by exploring three key events in the Bible in which
God is revealed: Jacob's dream at Bethel (the revelation of the
divine presence), Moses at the burning bush (the revelation of the
divine Name), and Moses on Mount Sinai (the revelation of the
divine character). In each case, Bauckham traces these themes
through the rest of Scripture. He then shows how the New Testament
builds on the Old by exploring three revelatory events in Mark's
Gospel, events that reveal the Trinity: Jesus's baptism,
transfiguration, and crucifixion. This book is based on the
Frumentius Lectures for 2015 at the Ethiopian Graduate School of
Theology in Addis Ababa and on the Hayward Lectures for 2018 at
Acadia Divinity College, Nova Scotia.

Thematically focused on the theology of redemption or what is
called in theology "soteriology," each of the two sections of The
Redemption addresses biblical literature and significant moments in
the history of Christian theology, and especially the work of
Anselm of Canterbury. The second part of the book presents a
significant treatment of the problem of good and evil, and
introduces the important category of cultural evil. Most
significant from the standpoint of Lonergan's original contribution
is the treatment accorded in both Part 1 and Part 2 to what he
calls "the just and mysterious law of the cross." The treatment of
biblical literature contains a valuable distinction between
"redemption as end" and "redemption as medium." Beginning with
theses 15-17 from Lonergan's Collected Works, The Incarnate Word,
this volume also includes rare and never-before-published texts
originally written in the late 1950s.
Diligent study of God's Word involves engaging with it in the
language it was written. Learning Greek can be a challenging
experience for seminary students but it is a critical piece of
their education. Engaging with the Bible in its original language
will lead to deeper understanding, new insights, and provide tools
to enter into the conversation surrounding God's Word. Biblical
Greek Made Simple is a one-semester textbook that teaches the
basics of biblical Greek. Designed with the modern student and
curriculum in mind, this grammar introduces all the essential
elements of biblical Greek while also utilizing the tools and
features of Logos Bible Software to help retain and enhance
knowledge of Greek. Each chapter includes exercises tailored to its
contents as well as additional teaching material for further
advancement. Daniel Zacharias provides a solid overview of the
entire biblical Greek system, while challenging students to
understand how this ancient language is relevant to meaning and
translation.
Stephen Daniel presents a study of the philosophy of George
Berkeley in the intellectual context of his times, with a
particular focus on how, for Berkeley, mind is related to its
ideas. Daniel does not assume that thinkers like Descartes,
Malebranche, or Locke define for Berkeley the context in which he
develops his own thought. Instead, he indicates how Berkeley draws
on a tradition that informed his early training and that challenges
much of the early modern thought with which he is often associated.
Specifically, this book indicates how Berkeley's distinctive
treatment of mind (as the activity whereby objects are
differentiated and related to one another) highlights how mind
neither precedes the existence of objects nor exists independently
of them. This distinctive way of understanding the relation of mind
and objects allows Berkeley to appropriate ideas from his
contemporaries in ways that transform the issues with which he is
engaged. The resulting insights-for example, about how God creates
the minds that perceive objects-are only now starting to be fully
appreciated.
