"Who are you? What defines you? What makes you, you? In the past an individual's identity was more predictable than it is today. Life's big questions were basically settled before you were born: where you'd live, what you'd do, the type of person you'd marry, your basic beliefs, and so on. Today personal identity is a do-it-yourself project. Constructing a stable and satisfying sense of self is hard amidst relationship breakdowns, the pa ..."

"What are the origin and meaning of the words "greed is idolatry" found in Ephesians 5:5 and Colossians 3:5? In what sense are the greedy guilty of idolatry? Many different answers have been given to this question throughout the history of interpretation. In fact, a consensus exists on only one score -- that the expression serves to vilify greed. Brian Rosner ably takes on the challenge of interpretation by tackling the phrase as a metap ..."

""For neither circumcision counts for anything nor uncircumcision, but keeping the commandments of God" (1 Cor 7:19). The apostle Paul's relationship to the Law of Moses is notoriously complex and much studied.

Major positions are entrenched, yet none o ..."
"Paul as Pastor demonstrates the critical nature of Paul's pastoral care to his identity and activities. Despite the fact that Paul never identifies himself as a pastor, there is much within the Pauline letters that alludes to this as a possible aspect of Paul's vocation and commitments, and this has been a topic of relative scholarly neglect. The contributors to this volume consider the household setting of Paul's pastoral practice, the ..."

"54 The interrelatedness of indicative and imperative is, of course, spoken of in
various ways. Bornkamm, for instance, discusses what he terms the 'collocation'
and 'conjunction' of the gospel and the summons, whilst Kummel speaks of the
conjoining and juxtaposition, 'a necessary, an indispensable antinomy'.
Haarbeck, on the other hand, calls it 'the dialectic of indicative and imperative,
gospel and law, gift and task . . ,'55 Nev ..."

"Brian Rosner writes, As a Jew who became the apostle to the Gentiles, Paul stood between the Jewish and pagan worlds. Consequently New Testament scholars have long debated the question of the sources of Pauls thought. To which sphere was he more indebted? In Paul, Scripture, and Ethics, Rosner asks this question anew in regard to the source of Pauls ethical teaching. In contrast to widely held scholarly opinion, Rosner uses Pauls teach ..."
"The stories and instruction in the Old Testament book of Exodus seem more at home in a museum than in today's world. Yet, for the apostle Paul, the Old Testament is 'written for us': hence, reading Exodus as direct address is the appropriate Christian stance.
This volume, based on the 2007 Moore College School of Theology, acknowledges that reading Exodus for all its worth, as a witness to the gospel and as wisdom for Christian living, ..."
