不錯的聖經難題解答(翻譯)

聖經難題彙編

By 艾基新博士 (Gleason Leonard Archer, Professor Emeritus of Trinity Evangelical Divinity School)
Publisher: 角聲出版社
Translation of: Encyclopedia of Bible difficulties / Gleason L. Archer ; foreword by Kenneth S. Kantzer; Grand Rapids, Mich.: Zondervan, 1982.

Some notable ones:

Dischronology and Dialogic in the Bible’s Primary Narrative, by David A. Bergen (2009)

"a reassessment of Moses' book of the law from a narrative theory perspective. Concerned for the long-term viability of his people, Moses legislates a public reading of his document which is deposited next to the ark of the covenant as a national testament. Through the mechanics of narrative mediation, the narrator reveals to the reader of Deuteronomy the contents of Moses' enshrined publication. Deuteronomy's simulcast of Moses' book invites external readers to compare and evaluate their readings with story-world readers who access the same text within the Bible's Primary Narrative."

Early Readers, Scholars and Editors of the New Testament, edited by H.A.G. Houghton (2014)

"ten original papers on the New Testament text, first presented in 2013, which reflect the diversity of current research. Examples of ancient engagement with the Bible include Origen, Eusebius of Caesarea and Augustine along with early translations. "

 Recent Developments in Midrash Research: Proceedings of the 2002 and 2003 SBL Consultation on Midrash, Edited by Lieve Teugels and Rivka Ulmer

"papers from sessions during the first two years of SBL Consultation on Midrash. It demonstrates innovative approaches to midrashic texts and hermeneutic reflections on similarities and differences between interpretations of the Bible. "

[Vyrso/Logos] Creative Teaching Methods [free today]


Creative Teaching Methods

by Marlene LeFever


Marlene LeFever makes the principle of learning through creative participation come alive for Christian education. Creative methods are vividly and invitingly explored for their potential for deepening the spiritual life through new ways of hearing the Word of God and using heretofore untapped personal resources in responding to it. Unique in its assumption that in Christian education creativity is just as essential in work with youth and adults as it is in work with children.
