[Logos] noteworthy free books of the month (Feb)

  •  Other than the free 1 Peter, I recommend Geoffrey Grogan's Psalms and Yarbrough's Pastoral Epistles

1 Peter (The Two Horizons New Testament Commentary | THNTC)

Even though the letter of 1 Peter has sometimes been overshadowed by Paul's many New Testament letters, it is nonetheless distinctive for the clarity with which it presents the Christian message. In this volume Joel Green offers a clear paragraph-by-paragraph analysis of 1 Peter and, even more, unpacks the letter’s theology in ways that go beyond the typical modern commentary.

A Cultural Handbook to the Bible

Many scholars take on the monumental task of interpreting the Bible in a way that deals with the cultural contexts of its original authors and audience. Others forget that studying the Bible is a type of cross-cultural encounter and instead read their own cultural assumptions into biblical texts. In A Cultural Handbook to the Bible, John Pilch bridges this cultural divide by translating important social concepts and applying them to biblical texts. In accessible chapters Pilch discusses 63 topics related to the cosmos, the earth, persons, family, language, human consciousness, God and the spirit world, and entertainment. Pilch’s fresh interpretations of the Bible challenge traditional views and explore topics often overlooked in commentaries. Each chapter concludes with a list of useful references from cultural anthropology or biblical studies, making this book an excellent resource for students of the Bible.

Louw and Nida,《希漢新約語義大詞典》


《希漢新約語義大詞典》https://bkbible.fhl.net/SDBG_zh.html

中文版主編:黃錫木
2020年六月

=Johannes P. Louw and Eugene A. Nida ed., Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament ---Based on Semantic Domains, 2nd ed. (New York: UBS, 1988-89).《希英新約大詞典──以語義域為基礎》

//有別於一般字典,這詞典並非按詞項條目(約有5,000個詞項)的字母順序編排,而是編者根據新約希臘文語義域系統對這些詞項加以分類和編排,因此,一般使用者無法立時知道要查找的字詞屬於哪個語義域分類。這詞典共有兩冊,第一冊是主要內容,第二冊是索引。在使用時,一般用者必須先從第二冊的「希臘文─英文索引」查找字詞所屬的語意域編號,然後按圖索驥,再翻開第一冊來細閱該字詞的語意項討論。這種雙重步驟無疑對使用者構成使用上的不便。本《希漢新約語義大詞典》把原詞典的條目按照字母順序排列,並在條目中保留原語義項的語意域編號,以及歸屬相同語義域的所有字詞。本詞典亦附上原LN的語義域大綱,好讓使用者能一覽整個語義域架構,特別是語義子域的劃分。

原LN在條目中一般只舉一段或兩段經文作為示例。為方便聖經翻譯者,SDNTG把每個詞項的所有新約聖經經文出處,都按原詞典的語義域來分類。這是本詞典對原LN的最主要增訂,而利弊亦可見一斑,因為有不少歸類只反映分析員的理解。//

Galatians

The greatest need of the Church today is the recovery of sound biblical preaching that faithfully explains and applies the text, courageously confronts sin, and boldly trumpets forth sovereign majesty, law, and the promises of God. It is for this reason that the Lectio Continua Expository Commentary on the New Testament is being written. It is authored by an array of seasoned pastor-scholars from various Reformed denominations on both sides of the Atlantic. The Lectio Continua series Testament...

This two-volume set is part of a growing body of literature concerned with the history of biblical interpretation. The ample introduction first situates key players in the story of the development of the major strands of biblical interpretation since the Enlightenment, identifying how different theoretical and methodological approaches are related to each other and describing the academic environment in which they emerged and developed. Volume 1 contains fourteen essays on twenty-two interpreters who were principally active before 1980, and volume 2 has nineteen essays on twenty-seven of those who were active primarily after this date. Each chapter provides a brief biography of one or more scholars, as well as a detailed description of their major contributions to the field. This is followed by an (often new) application of the scholar's theory. By focusing on the individual scholars and their work, the book recognizes that interpretive approaches arise out of certain circumstances, and that scholars are influenced by, and have influences upon, both other interpreters and the times in which they live. This set is ideal for any class on the history of biblical interpretation and for those who want a greater understanding of how the current field of biblical studies developed.

"A pointer to some of the figures influential in recent biblical interpretation that will be particularly helpful to students trying to acquaint themselves with the field."
--L. W. Hurtado, Emeritus Professor of New Testament Language, Literature & Theology, School of Divinity, New College, University of Edinburgh
