Deuteronomy Zusammenfassung

Deuteronomy: A Bible Commentary for Every Day Philip Johnston

In some Jewish traditions, Deuteronomy is the first book of scripture taught to children. It presents the law of Moses as a coherent whole, including material from Exodus, Leviticus and Numbers. But Deuteronomy is as much about encouragement as about rules, and is full of guidance, help and exhortation. This is stressed repeatedly with phrases more appropriate to the pulpit than the law court, such as 'hear', 'observe', 'love' and 'obey'. For Christians, Deuteronomy is one of the three books most quoted in the New Testament, along with Psalms and Isaiah. Studying it is a key part of seeing how the Bible fits together as a whole, and how the Old Testament lays a theological basis for Christian faith.

Deuteronomy Bewertungen

{{From: {The Door} - May 2006}} Philip Johnston has contributed a useful book on {Deuteronomy} to {The People's Bible Commentary} series published by BRF. Each page covers a few verses in an engaging and accessible style. There are many contemporary references, sub-headings to help guide the reader and prayerful reflections throughout. It is a book for those wanting to find a commentary containing insights for daily life, spiritual principles and a degree of background study. It is a good resource for group study leaders, church ministers or for private devotion. Along with the encouragement to love and serve God as its basis, the book gives a thoughtful approach to more complex issues. Controversial subjects such as ethnic cleansing , slavery, gender inequality and nationalism are addressed, with the understanding that this was a very different culture from our own, facing different conflicts and under a different covenant. There is no suggestion that we need to adopt the same laws, practices and attitudes. We are also warned against appropriating the claims of Deuteronomy for ourselves too literally: 'They were promised prosperity for obedience, while we are given the gospel - the two are quite different.' However, Philip Johnston demonstrates how scripture from a different culture can still engage with us and help us critique our own life and times. Deuteronomy speaks to us on many contemporary issues such as money, sex, politics, the environment, justice and social action. It is perhaps primarily a book that encourages us in our relationship with God, and we can gain from reading it with thought and insight. This commentary should help many people do that. {Reviewed by Dave and Eve Lockett} -- Dave and Eve Lockett The Door
