NO OF PAGES: 596 SUB CAT I: Commentary SUB CAT II: Prophets SUB CAT III: DESCRIPTION: Search beneath the surface of today's culture and you'll find we're not so different from ancient Israel. True, our sophistication, mobility, and technology eclipse anything the Israelites could have imagined. Our worship is far different, to say nothing of our language and customs. Yet if the prophets Hosea, Amos, and Micah were to visit us today, we might be shocked to see how little their messages would differ from the ones they delivered 2,800 years ago. For human hears are still the same-and so is God. Injustice, oppression, and political courruption anger him as much as ever. Apostacy still grieves him. His judgement of sin remains as fierce as his love is strong. And the hope God extends to those who turn toward him is as brilliant now as at any time in history. Revealing the links between Israel eight centuries B.C. and our own times, Gary V. Smith show how the prophetic writings of Hosea, Amos, and Micah speak to us today with relevance and conviction. Most Bible commentaries take us on a one-way trip from our world to the world of the Bible. But they leave us there, assuming that we can somehow make the return journey on our own. The focus on the original meaning of the passage but don't discuss the contemporary application. The information they offer is valuable-but the job is only half done! "The NIV Application Commentary Series" helps bring both halves of the interpretive task together. This unique, award-winning series shows readers how to bring an ancient message into our postmodern context. It explains not only what the Bible meant but also it speaks powerfully today.NOTES: Purchased by Brent Emery, (reimbursed by Beit Hallel) SUBTITLE: From biblical text?to contemporary life ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
