An Obituary for "Wisdom Literature" The Birth, Death, and Intertextual Reintegration of a Biblical Corpus by WillKynes Hardcover, 352 Pages, Published 2019 by Oxford University Press ISBN-13: 978-0-19-877737-3, ISBN: 0-19-877737-X
"An Obituary for "Wisdom Literature" considers the definitional issues long plaguing Wisdom scholarship. Will Kynes argues that Wisdom Literature is not a category used in early Jewish and Christian interpretation. It first emerged in modern scholarship, shaped by its birthplace in nineteenth-century Germany. Kynes casts new light on the traits long associated with the category, such as universalism, humanism, rationalism, empiricism, an ..."
"A rightly ordered and healthy marriage displays or pictures the gospel (Eph. 5:22–33). As the world around us gets more and more confused as to what marriage is, this gospel-displaying property of marriage becomes even more important. This is especially true in the church and among pastors. The world should be able to look into a church and see something remarkably distinct. That said, we must be careful that the Bible constrains our un ..."

"Job is asked if he can “bind the chains” of the Pleiades (9>J< EH?5> C BE9) or “
loose the cords” of Orion (IEAE =JD< EH< >). As with Job's speech in ch. 9, the
intent of this section is both to draw attention to God's supremacy as creator and
sustainer of the universe and to highlight the trembling and faltering status of the
creation (in this case Job himself) before the power of the deity (cf. 40:1–5; 42:5–
6). In Amos 5:8 the sam ..."

"Drawing inspiration from the widely recognized parody of Ps 8:5 in Job 7:17 18, this study inquires whether other allusions to the Psalms might likewise contribute to the dialogue between Job, his friends, and God. An intertextual analysis reveals six psalms (1, 8, 39, 73, 107, 139) that serve as subtexts in the Job dialogue. The dialogue thus created between Job and these psalms indicates the concern the book has with the proper respon ..."
