Book Synopsis Perhaps there is Hope' by : Miriam J. Bier

Download or read book Perhaps there is Hope' written by Miriam J. Bier. This book was released on 2015-04-23. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bier proposes here a strong new understanding of the Book of Lamentations, drawing on Bakhtinian ideas of multiple voices to analyse the poetic speaking voices within the text; examining their theological perspectives, and nuancing the interaction between them. Bier scrutinises interpretations of Lamentations, distinguishing between exegesis that reads Lamentations as a theodicy, in defense of God, and those that read it as an anti-theodicy, in defense of Zion. Rather than reductively adopting either of these approaches, this book advocates a dialogic approach to Lamentations, reading to hear the full polyphony of pain, penitence, and protest.

Book Synopsis There is Hope for a Tree by : Kirsten Nielsen

Download or read book There is Hope for a Tree written by Kirsten Nielsen. This book was released on 1989-02-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insights gained from the study of metaphorical language in other fields, particularly New Testament parable research, are here applied to the tree metaphors in Isaiah 1-39. The focus of investigation is the content of the metaphors , the intentions underlying their use, and the consequences of that use. The author suggests that (1) the informative function of the tree metaphors is to provide theological interpretations of the political situation; (2) the performative function of the metaphors is to engage the audience in such a way that they adopt the metaphors' interpretation of reality as their own; (3) the use of metaphorical language encourages continual reinterpretation of the original proclamation. The tree in the Garden, the felling of trees, new growth of felled trees and the forest fire, are among the images Isaiah uses to make his political statements. He shows himself to be an extremely competent rhetorician in using these images to instil an active response in his audience. The modes in which the metaphors can be reinterpreted and reapplied in new contexts are perceived as significant not only for the composition of Isaiah, but for that of subsequent religious literature.

Book Synopsis There Is Hope by : Gregory M Doublas MBA

Download or read book There Is Hope written by Gregory M Doublas MBA. This book was released on 2018-02-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Very often we face difficulties in this life that appear to be like a great mountain, impossible to overcome. I also faced a great mountain I couldnt conquer on my own. I was diagnosed with kidney cancer, and shortly after the diagnosis, the doctor removed my left kidney. Unfortunately this cancer proved to be very dangerous and had spread to my lungs. It became what they called a metastatic cancer. As a result, the doctor gave me a death sentence, but the Lord healed me by removing the cancerous nodules from my lungs. But while I was going through these difficult times, The Lord gave me peace in my heart and hope through His Word that everything would be all right. And so, no matter how difficult or what kind of challenge you are facing, there is hope.
