Elemental Claims of the Gospel

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Walter Brueggemann’s gift lies in his remarkable ability to mediate between us (inheritors of mainline Protestant thought) and the text. He takes our deepest yearnings, our limited imaginations, and our most pressing questions to the Gospel and demands a response, making ‘the Word’ speak afresh over and over again. The result is a work of astonishing wisdom.”

Jonah

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“In this commentary, Claassens brings her considerable knowledge of trauma hermeneutics, along with feminist, queer, and postcolonial biblical interpretation to bear on the book of Jonah, and the result is marvelous. In Claassens’s hands, the inherent queerness of Jonah shines forth in theologically exciting and liberating ways. This is not your grandfather’s commentary!”

Reason for Being

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Jacques Ellul's prophetic voice rises here to join the existential Hebrew sage in an illuminating and rousing completion to Ellul's expansive corpus. While Ellul's scholarship ranged widely across sociological, philosophical, and theological territory, it returns here to its wellspring: a deep and detailed study of the biblical text. This refurbished publication of the English translation of Ellul's study of Ecclesiastes is a timely reminder. In an age distraught by individual and institutional frailty alike, Ellul unearths the wisdom of fragility and finitude. Ours is a mortal existence whose crevices are filled by the joyous presence of God.”

Rediscovering the Joy of Predestination and the Comfort of Election

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“In Rediscovering the Joy of Predestination and the Comfort of Election, M. C. Warren showcases the value of re-examining calcified doctrinal labels with a fresh hearing of Scripture. Theologians, pastors, and laypersons alike will find here an able map and renewed perspective to consider this heartland of the Reformed tradition. In so doing, they are likely to find not just stimulation for the mind, but nourishment for their own ministry and journey of faith.”
