New Testament Theology in a Secular World: A Constructivist Work in Philosophical Epistemology and Christian Apologetics
Autor Peter Lampe Traducere de Professor Robert L. Brawleyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 ian 2012
New
Testament
Theology
in
a
Secular
World is
an
important
and
original
new
work
in
Christian
apologetics.
It
is
the
first
book
to
apply
constructivist
theory
to
biblical
studies.
Biblical Studies scholar Peter Lampe tackles head on such questions as: What do we understand by "reality?" How does this relate to what theology calls the "reality of God" or the "reality of resurrection?" How can we account for the concept of "revelation"? Lampe argues that in talking about "reality" theologians must make an effort to engage with the concept of "reality" as it is discussed in the fields of philosophical epistemology and sociology of knowledge. However, as Lampe shows, Theology has so far hardly or only reluctantly participated in this dialogue.

'A
fascinating
approach
to
the
New
Testament.'

'Convincing, profound, innovative and in its interdisciplinary character courageous. The study casts new light on the New Testament as a foundation document of the Christian concept of reality.' - Dr. Christian Strecker in Theologische Literaturzeitung.
'A meritorious, important tool, abounding in perspectives. Lampe shows how helpful it is to use constructivism for epistemological groundwork-both in the dialogue between theology and other scholarly disciplines, and in the inner theological discourse. Worth not only to be read but to be studied.' - Dr. Michael Gärtner in Pfaelzisches Pfarrerblatt, a journal for pastors.
