Interpretation and Obedience: From Faithful Reading to Faithful Living

Предња корица
Fortress Press, 1. 1. 1991. - 325 страница
Drawing on specific texts that speak to cosmic hurt and personal possibility, Walter Brueggemann demonstrates the essential connection between faithful reading of the biblical text and faithful living in a world of banal, yet threatening values. He assesses the nature of obedience today in such areas as ministry, justice, the land, education, hospitality, and the contemporary imagination.
