BIBLE PROPHECY: Failure or Fulfillment?
by Tim Callahan. Condition: UNREAD 1997 Millennium hardcover & DJ (in mylar jacket), first printing. Top DJ edge shows light shelf wear. Content: Although this book was written for the calendar year 2000, it is still relevant as a discussion of Biblical prophecy. The book aims to dissect modern scenarios of the end of the world and investigate the claims of fundamentalist ministers. s our world coming to an end as described in the Book of Revelation? By comparing the predictions to actual history, as well as to each other and by noting evidence of historical anachronisms and faulty scholarship on the part of fundamentalist apologists, Callahan subjects the prophecies of the Bible to four rigorous questions: 1) Is the prophecy true, false or too vague to be specifically interpreted? 2) If the prophecy is true was it written before or after the fact? 3) If it was written before the fact, was its fulfillment something that could be predicted based on a logical interpretation of the events of the prophet's day? 4) Was the prophecy directive or deliberately fulfilled by someone with knowledge of the prophecy?

CRUDEN'S COMPLETE CONCORDANCE
by Alexander Cruden, A.M. Edited by A. D. Adams, C. H. Irwin, & S. A. Waters. Condition: UNREAD 1975 Zondervan Trade Paperback, Crusade Edition, 17th printing. Pale diagonal crease top front cover corner. Interior clean & tight. Content: Reviewer: "A Bible verse flits through your mind, but you can't remember it exactly, and you're not sure where to find it. You look in the Concordance in the back of your Bible. No help. Even the gigantic Strong's Concordance (which gives you a hernia to lift!) doesn't help because it's keyed only to the King James translation. Cruden's to the rescue! Look up a key word and you find the reference in 'most any translation. Example: you remember somewhere in Scripture the phrase, "God inhabits the praise of His people. So you look under "praise" and you find Psalm 22:3: "OH Thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel." OK, so you didn't recall it quite right. Now you know. Another example: you're curious what the Bible has to say about JOY. Wow! More than 2 columns of references on joy and joyful! A Bible study in itself. As a writer, I adore this book, but anyone who loves God's word and studying it will, too." [1 copy available]

THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS AFTER FORTY YEARS
by Hershel Shanks, James Vanderkam, P. Kyle McCarter, Jr., and James Sanders. B&W photos with a color photo section. Condition: UNREAD 1990 Biblical Archaeology Society Trade Paperback, no printing given. Content: Reviewer: "A little on the old side now (1992) this is a nice little overview of the history of the Scrolls: their discovery, their origin, their translation, and the contention over their intellectual "ownership." The slender volume is a printed version of a symposium conducted at the Smithsonian Institute and given by three prominent scholars and introduced and moderated by Hershel Shanks, the founder, editor and publisher of Biblical Archaeology Review among other periodicals. The book is divided into four sections, the last three followed by a question and answer session, themselves very informative. The lectures reveal that the process of Biblical textual analysis is always a work in progress--and that what is extracted reflects as much on the evolution of our modern society as on the ancient one. An interesting little book." [1 copy available]

THE GOSPEL OF PHILIP: Jesus, Mary Magdalene and the Gnosis of Sacred Union
by Jean-Yves Leloup (Joseph Rowe Translation From the French) Coptic translations by author. Condition: NEW 2004 Inner Traditions Trade Paperback, first American edition/printing. Cover art from a Castagno fresco (c. 1444) of the apostles. Content: The Gnostic Gospel of Philip, discovered in 1947 at Nag Hammadi, Egypt, is best known for a verse that portrays Jesus kissing Mary Magdalene on the lips. Although this is the most visual image in that gospel, the underlying message, about the sacredness of the marital union, was also controversial in early Christianity, as it established closer links to Judaism and the belief in a space of holiness that can occur in the physical act of love. Leloup, who has also written on the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, here translates Philip's gospel from the Coptic and offers a rather brief analysis of the text (he promises more in a future book). Still, what he does cover -- ways to look at conception, birth, and the relationship between man, woman, and God -- is well thought out and understandable to the lay reader. Most of the book is taken up with actual translation and visuals of the Coptic original from which Leloup worked. Interesting read! Questions welcome [1 copy available]

THE LIFE STORY OF ADAM AND HAVAH: A New Targum of Genesis 1:25 - 5.5
by Shira Halevi. Condition: Gently pre-read 1997 Jason Aronson hardcover & DJ (in mylar jacket), first edition, first printing. Content: The story of Adam and Havah (Eve), the first man and woman as told in the Bible, has greatly influenced our ideas about relations between the sexes, reward and punishment, and free will versus predestination. An imaginative approach to this well-known yet enigmatic myth. Targum is a late Hebrew word meaning "translation" - actually a "translation from the Aramaic." In the act of translating from the original Hebrew text, the way in which certain words are rendered is in itself a form of interpretation. Because many Hebrew words have an ambiguous meaning, and often more than one meaning, the opinion of the interpreter as to how the word appears in the secondary language colors the understanding of the translation's reader. It is common practice for scholars to use biblical translations as a form of commentary and interpretive resource on the text. In this targum, Shira Halevi follows tradition by doing much more than simply translating the biblical text into English; she offers the full-range of possible translations from the Hebrew, clearly aligning the alternate meanings so that the English reader can comprehend the inherent complexity of many Hebrew words.

THE LOST GOSPEL: The Book of Q and Christian Origins
by Burton L. Mack. Condition: UNREAD 1993 HarperSanFrancisco Trade Paperback, third printing. Light tanning to page edges. Content: If its premise is accepted by a preponderance of theologians, this debatable study could bring about a rethinking of the origins of Christianity. Mack presents an analysis of the so-called Book of Q , a supposed collection of Jesus's sayings that was compiled by his followers during his lifetime. Certain scholars, deducing the existence of the book, have reconstructed the putative text of this "lost gospel" during the last 20 years through a comparison of the gospels of Matthew and Luke, who, it is contended, used Q as a common basis (Q stands for Quelle , German for "source"). Mack, a professor of New Testament at the School of Theology at Claremont College in Los Angeles, concludes that "the people of Q"--Jesus's contemporaries--thought of him as a teacher, not as a messiah, and that they did not regard his death as a divine or saving event. Mack offers an earthy, colloquial translation of the Book of Q with its wisdom sayings, exhortations, parables and apocalyptic pronouncements. His portrayal of the early Jesus movement reveals a community based on fictive kinship without regard to class, gender or ethnicity. The discovery of Q , Mack argues, compels us to see the New Testament gospels as imaginative creations rather than historical accounts. [1 copy available]

THE POETS' BOOK OF PSALMS: The Complete Psalter as Rendered by Twenty-Five Poets from the Sixteenth to the Twentieth Centuries
edited by Laurance Wieder. Condition: UNREAD, but not perfect, 1998 Oxford Univ. Press Trade Paperback, first printing. Light edgewear with light foxing fore edges and a light "lift" to front cover fore edge. Not crisp. Content: This is a complete English-language translation of the Psalms by almost 50 poets from the 16th to the 20th centuries. The formidable team of translators includes John Milton, Philip Sidney, Mary Herbert Sidney, Henry Vaughn, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Robert Burns, and Christopher Smart. On numerous pages of this book, translations made centuries apart appear right next to one another. This stylistic disorientation can be spiritually invigorating: readers are reminded of the eternally fresh meanings hidden in the Bible's familiar words. Here, for example, is George Herbert's translation of the first verses of the 23rd Psalm: "The God of love my shepherd is, / And he that doth me feed: / While he is mind, and I am his, / What can I want or need?"

REGARDING KARL BARTH: Essays Toward a Reading of His Theology
by Trevor Hart. Condition: NEW 1999 paternoster press (UK) Trade Paperback, first printing.

THE SOCIAL SETTING OF PAULINE CHRISTIANITY: Essays on Corinth
by Gerd Theissen. Condition: Gently pre-read 1982 Fortress Press haradcover & DJ (in mylar jacket), no printing given. DJ shows light edgewear. Content: This book comprises a number of essays translated from the German, which were first published in 1974 and 1975, as well as an introduction by the translator, John H. Schütz It was first published in English in 1982 and republished in 2004. Thus it does not contain developments in the last quarter of a century. However it is a classic in our understanding of the social world of early Christianity. It is still of value today in helping to gain insight into Paul's community in Corinth, its problems and Paul's suggested resolution of these. Theissen develops the idea that Paul's followers were not all from the lower strata of society. While in Palestine the followers of Jesus were from the rural poor, in Paul's communities his followers were diverse. The majority of Paul's followers in Corinth were poor, but some were wealthy and educated. These were the leaders. Questions welcome. [1 copy available]

Wonderfully he achieves his goal. I truly cut my NT teeth using this book as that map and still turn to it often to get my bearings. Each NT book is covered by isagogical matters, who wrote it, when, theological meaning, outline. To provide a faint taste of this man's skill with words, this offering on the historical character of the NT: "The apostles are not religious geniuses, whose insights enrich and enlarge accumulated religious stores of mankind. They are recipients of revelation, witnesses to a Person and an act in history - and this Person and this act completely overshadow and dominate them. They are important, not for themselves, but for what they bear witness to." Questions welcome. [1 copy available]
