implications of the Ten Commandments and be encouraged by God’s
grace to renounce sin and live out godly love.Â
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. .
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.

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.
