Biblical Foundations Award Finalist Holidays today are often established by legislation, and calendars are published on paper and smart phones. But how were holidays chosen and taught in biblical Israel? And what might these holidays have to do with the creation narrative? In this book, Michael LeFebvre considers the calendars of the Pentateuch with their basis in the heavenly lights and the land's agricultural cadences. He argues that dates were added to Old Testament narratives not as journalistic details but to teach sacred rhythms of labor and worship. LeFebvre then applies this insight to the creation week, finding that the days of creation also serve a liturgical purpose and not a scientific one. The Liturgy of Creation restores emphasis on the religious function of the creation week as a guide for Sabbath worship. Scholars, students, and church members alike will appreciate LeFebvre's careful scholarship and pastoral sensibilities.
Scholars of biblical law are already widely agreed that ancient Israel did not draft law-texts for legislative purposes. Little attention has yet been given to explaining how and when later Judaism did come to regard Torah as legislative. As a result, the current consensus (that Ezra introduced legislative uses of Torah) is based on assumptions which have been never tested. This study steps into that crucial gap, critiques and challenges the current consensus, and presents an alternative hypothesis. .
Provides a pastor's perspective for a fuller understanding of the saving, mysterious, practical, and glorious Trinity. How are we to relate to a three-personed God? The idea of the Trinity may initially seem too abstract to understand, but the truth is that a deeper knowledge of God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit has daily importance. Convinced that many Christians "have some level of awareness that God is triune... but] are virtually Unitarian," the authors have written a practical and theologically robust resource to help readers grow closer to the Triune God. Philip Ryken and Michael LeFebvre examine the doctrine of the Trinity in four parts. They explain the roles of the Father, Son, and Spirit in salvation; answer difficult questions about the Trinity; explore the believer's relationship to each person of the Trinity; and provide an exposition of the various Gospel narratives depicting how the three persons of the Trinity work together to accomplish the redemptive purposes of God. Their careful treatment of these central truths captures important implications for the Christian life. Our Triune God is a helpful guide for Christians wanting to deepen their faith and for pastors as they shepherd their congregations toward a richer love of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Nicolas prete sa voix a Nini Bousset qui raconte dix histoires, comme une sorte de catharsis de la societe occidentale actuelle liee aux soins que nous devons donner a nos peres et a nos meres dans une epoque ou l'esperance de vie depasse nos ressources. Ainsi, nous avons dans ce petit ouvrage, des personnes agees bien entourees, abandonnees ou negligees par leurs enfants. Nous avons egalement des aines sympathiques, des bonbons ou des arrogants. Nous rencontrons aussi des enfants pleins de culpabilite, sans attention envers leurs parents ou faisant tout pour eux. Autrement dit, nous faisons face a un nouveau phenomene social qui est la longevite des hommes et des femmes en ce debut de XXIieme siecle. C'est la vie des etres humains, avec leurs nombreuses facons d'agir et reagir, similaires et distinctes en meme temps. En bref, le travail presente ici est une invitation a reflechir sur le paradoxe de la vie et de la mort; les soins et l'abandon; l'amour et la haine.
