Ed Wright Boeken

Van de achterflap: Sommigen zien in het coronavirus een bewijs dat we leven in de eindtijd. Anderen zien het virus als een manier van God om ons wakker te schudden. Weer anderen vinden dat het de schuld is van de Chinezen, de regering, de WHO. Tom Wright onderzoekt deze reacties op het virus en vindt dat ze tekortschieten. In plaats daarvan nodigt hij je uit om na te denken over een andere manier van kijken en reageren – een manier die put uit de leringen en voorbeelden van de Schrift, en vooral over de manier van leven, denken en bidden die Jezus ons heeft geopenbaard.

"While full of theological import, Paul's letter to the Galatians also captures and memorializes a significant moment in the early history of Christianity. This commentary from N. T. Wright--the inaugural volume of the CCF series--offers a theological interpretation of Galatians that never loses sight of the political concerns of its historical context. With these two elements of the letter in dialogue with each other, readers can understand both what Paul originally meant and how his writing might be faithfully used to respond to present questions. Each section of verse-by-verse commentary in this volume is followed by Wright's reflections on what the text says about Christian formation today, making this an excellent resource for individual readers and those preparing to teach or preach on Galatians. The focus on formation is especially appropriate for this biblical letter, in which Paul wrote to his fellow early Christians, 'My children--I seem to be in labor with you all over again, until the Messiah is fully formed in you!'" -- Publisher, page four of cover
