Caution for those using 2nd Ed. SBL Handbook Note style in Zotero

 pls see the discussion in the Forum: 

2nd Ed. SBL Handbook Note style no longer has the place in the citation

As in the title, it's now incorrect - the place has completely disappeared from both the notes and bibliography in all of the Item Types that I'm currently using (book, thesis, journal article, blogpost, conference paper) so I'd assume that would be the same with the rest too

  That's correct SBL. Chicago removed the place in the 18th edition and SBL had a blogpost in December that they are following suit.

 ...

 

*****

If you use SBL style previously in Zotero and don't want the update one which removed all the publishing places, you can get the "legacy edition" of the SBL 2.0 style here.

 

For those who uses HRW Chinese and English Citation 3rd edition (full note) (which works on 《學術研究與寫作：聖經、神學與教牧學研究手冊》), this is not affected. See here.

Exodus (The Contextual Critical Commentary) Kindle Edition

Part of: The Contextual Critical Commentary (2 books)

See all formats and editions

---

Marvin A. Sweeney presents a new and innovative commentary on the book of Exodus. He presents an analysis of both the final, synchronic, literary form of Exodus, together with a discussion of the diachronic, historical composition of the book from the initial Ephraimitic composition to the later Priestly edition of the book. Sweeney argues that Exodus constitutes a classic example of an ancient Near Eastern creation narrative in which YHWH, the G-d of Israel, defeats Pharaoh, recognized as a god in Egypt. YHWH uses elements of creation, newly recognized in the Exodus narrative, to defeat Pharaoh, exercise sovereignty over creation, and deliver the nation of Israel from Egyptian oppression. He also treats major elements and themes in the reception history of Exodus in Judaism, Christianity, African American, Asian, and other cultures to demonstrate how the book of Exodus has inspired readers throughout the world.

Knowing Our Faith: A Guide for Believers, Seekers, and Christian Communities

“I do not hope to convince you so that you will believe,” says Justo González to open this brief book on the basics of Christianity. “That is to be left to the Holy Spirit. I write to you because you share the faith by which I live. I write so that you may share my joy in seeking to understand better this truth that our hearts believe and love.” In Knowing Our Faith González introduces the Christian faith in direct, contemporary language that does not assume prior knowledge. While recognizing the existence of various denomi­nations and theological positions, González focuses on the core faith of the Christian church through the centuries. Covering all the key topics—revelation, God, Jesus Christ, the Spirit, the church, Christian hope, and others—Knowing Our Faith will help readers to understand the Christian faith better—and, above all, to live it better.

Reading Theology Wisely: A Practical Introduction

In this illuminating introduction, Kent Eilers invites Christians of all backgrounds into the practice of reading theology. With a classroom-tested approach, Eilers shows how theology can form the imagination and enhance “the human capacity for perceiving reality beyond the surface of things”—allowing Christians to see and experience God in the everyday. He then guides readers through the essential facets of theology so that it can begin to feel familiar and accessible, even (and especially) to beginners with no prior experience.

The Good Life: Ethics and the Pursuit of Happiness

The Dalai Lama once wrote that the object of human existence was to be happy. On the other hand, von Hugel wrote, “Religion has never made me happy; it’s no use shutting your eyes to the fact that the deeper you go, the more alone you will find yourself.” This small masterpiece by the late Fr. Herbert McCabe, OP steers a steady course between these two extremes.
