Biblical Exegesis: A Beginner's Handbook

6 reviews
John H. Hayes, Carl R. Holladay

Westminster John Knox Press, 2007

Great Overview of the Field
This is a great introduction to the discipline of BE. It has a lot of breadth to give a novice a good flavor of multiple facets of BE without going into too much depth and drowning one in technical terms and methodology. Very nice overview for beginners. In the first chapter, the authors introduce the field itself, provide basic definitions and historical perspectives/evolution of the field. ...

Four Views on Hell

Zondervan, 1997

Four Views of Hell
This book is a great general expression of the four main views of Hell that most Christians would hold. It is in an easy to read format and allows for even the causal reader to understand. While every reader would not agree with all four views, most would seem to understand the views and their implication on how various Christian groups and Denominations apply the Bible. It is also a great book ...

Tongue Fu
If you want complicated - read something else. If you want to make selling easy and rewarding, read this book first. Marshal arts teaches you to use your opponent's momentum. The Sandler Selling System and tactics are like Tongue Fu. His system gives the salesperson new leverage, which is in both the buyer and the seller's best interest. I liked it when I first found it, because most ...

Methods of Biblical Interpretation

Abingdon Press, 2005

Less interesting than staring at dirt.
This is mind-numbingly dull. If you are not slap-yo-mamma passionate about dry, hardcore academic biblical studies, do NOT take whatever class has this book on its syllabus. You will rue the day you did.

Preaching Through the Christian Year: Year C

Trinity Press International, 1994

The best lectionary help volume I know about
As a seminary professor of New Testament, I know I'm supposed to eschew any "lectionary helps" because they are so often a shortcut to students' or pastors' own reading of the text they are going to preach. More often I eschew lectionary helps because they are dull, irrelevant to the preaching task, or moralistic in their appropriation of scripture. Preaching through the Christian Year is a ...

Transformational
This highly readable book is so much more than simply a resource for transforming the reader's relationship with problem anger. It contains a wealth of insight into what life is like for the vast majority of human beings, whose daily struggle with painful thoughts and feelings obscures the truth about their deepest sense of self. The good news is that people's most fundamental sense of self can ...

Trinity Press International, 1993

The Best of Its Kind on the Market
I'm not big into using other people's lectionary guides when preparing sermons. Most of them are not worth the money. It seems to me that pastors who rely too heavily on such material cease to be be original and lack scholarship. This series is not like that. The authors are among today's best preachers. They give direction and background, but do not offer "canned" sermons. If you ...
