Studying Old Testament ethics. A survey of historical approaches -- Contemporary scholarship : a bibliographical essay -- Hermeneutics and authority in Old Testament ethics -- Appendix : What about the Canaanites?\r\nAbstract: \tNothing confuses Christian ethics quite like the Old Testament. Some faithful readers struggle through its pages and conclude that they must obey its moral laws but may disregard its ceremonial and civil laws. Others abandon its teaching altogether in favor of a strictly New Testament ethic. Neither option, argues Chris Wright, gives the Old Testament its due. In this innovative approach to Old Testament ethics--fully revised, updated and expanded since its first appearance in 1983 as Living as the People of God (An Eye for an Eye in North America) and including material from Walking in the Ways of the Lord--Wright examines a theological, social and economic framework for Old Testament ethics. Then he explores a variety of themes in relation to contemporary issues: economics, the land and the poor; politics and a world of nations; law and justice; society and culture; and the way of the individual. This fresh, illuminating study provides a clear basis for a biblical ethic that is faithful to the God of both Testaments. - Publisher.\n\nPublished in: Downers Grove, Illinois\n\nPhysical description: 520 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.","bookEdition":null,"offers":{"@type":"Offer","availability":"https:\/\/schema.org\/OutOfStock"}}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"item":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Book","name":"On playing a poor hand well : insights from the lives of those who have overcome childhood risks and adversities \/ Mark Katz.","author":"Katz, M.","isbn":null,"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Norton, cop."},"datePublished":"1997","inLanguage":"English","description":"1.

The author then explores the latest research into life's trajectories and culls the lessons we must learn in order to provide avenues through which turning point experiences and second-chance opportunities can occur - to change the odds, so to speak, for individuals who were dealt a poor hand. On Playing a Poor Hand Well focuses on how people overcome different adversities - not simply on the effects these stresses had on their lives. This book will enable disadvantaged individuals and their families to validate the pain they've endured and to celebrate their resilience.\n\nPublished in: NEWYORK\n\nPhysical description: xvii, 187 pages ; 22 cm","bookEdition":null,"offers":{"@type":"Offer","availability":"https:\/\/schema.org\/OutOfStock"}}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":5,"item":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Book","name":"Once more astonished : the parables of Jesus \/ Jan Lambrecht.","author":"Lambrecht, J.","isbn":"0824500938","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Crossroad Pub."},"datePublished":"1981","inLanguage":"English","description":"Contents:\t1.
