Free Download Marie Turner, "Ecclesiastes: An Earth Bible Commentary: Qoheleth's Eternal Earth"
English | ISBN: 0567674576 | 2017 | 144 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Qoheleth is one of the most challenging and intriguing of the biblical authors. Above all, he is attentive to life's realities, neither optimistic about the world nor unappreciative of its goodness and pleasures. In this volume, Turner examines the writings of Qoheleth in the book of Ecclesiastes and provides an ecological reading of the text that gives readers clear insights into how biblical wisdom literature can be used to respond to the challenges facing the environment in the present day, as well as advancing the field of ecological hermeneutics.

This edited volume gathers top scholars from across disciplines, generations, and countries to provide constructive commentary on the theory, methods and practices of institutional ethnography. These contributions explore themes of relevance to institutional ethnographers that are both enduring and newly emerging: how institutional ethnographers can take an expanded view of social institutions, how they might explore the dynamics of ruling relations over time, what results from understanding experience as dialogue (including internal or in-skull dialogue), the significance of "standpoint," and the opportunities for institutional ethnographers to move beyond texts as they discover and describe social relations.

Judges A Critical & Rhetorical Commentary
Free Download Richard D. Nelson, "Judges: A Critical & Rhetorical Commentary"
English | ISBN: 056767309X | 2017 | 336 pages | PDF | 3 MB
The book of Judges is part of the world's literary and cultural canon, and as such it provides insights about political leadership, gender relationships, power disparities, personal strengths and weakness, as well as social and political ethics. In addition, for many Jewish and Christian scholars, Judges is a canonical, scriptural text. This new commentary on Judges considers all these issues, adopting two key approaches: rhetorical criticism and historical criticism.

Galatians A Commentary
Free Download Galatians: A Commentary By Martinus C. de Boer
2011 | 488 Pages | ISBN: 0664221238 | PDF | 7 MB
This new commentary in the New Testament Library series is not a systematic study of Pauline theology; rather, the aim of this study is to trace Paul's theology as it unfolds in his letter to the church at Galatia, and to attempt to illuminate, as far as possible, how the Galatians likely comprehended it, at the time they received it. The author asks readers to imagine themselves as silent witnesses to Paul's dictation of the letter and to observe, through a historical perspective, how the Galatian Christians might have understood Paul's words.

The Gospel of Luke A Hypertextual Commentary
Free Download Bartosz Adamczewski, "The Gospel of Luke: A Hypertextual Commentary "
English | ISBN: 3631667205 | 2016 | 256 pages | PDF | 6 MB
This commentary demonstrates that the Gospel of Luke is a result of twofold, strictly sequential, hypertextual reworking of Paul's Letter to the Galatians. The ideas of this letter were sequentially illustrated by Luke with the use of numerous literary motifs, taken from other Pauline and post-Pauline letters, the letters of James, Peter, and Jude, the Gospel of Mark, well-known classical Greek and Hellenistic works, the Septuagint, the Damascus Document, and the works of Flavius Josephus. Consequently, the Lucan Jesus narratively embodies the features of God's Son who was revealed in the person, teaching, and course of life of Paul the Apostle. The Gospel of Luke should therefore be regarded as a strictly theological-ethopoeic work, rather than a biographic one.

In this new critical commentary for the New Testament Library series, R.
