The Unheard Voice of God: A Pentecostal Hearing of the Book of Judges: Journal of Pentecostal Theology Supplement Series, cartea 32

Autor Lee Roy Martin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 2007
With the wealth of colorful characters described in the book of Judges, scholars and general readers alike have a strong fascination for Israel’s leaders in its earliest days. Theologians and biblical scholars from Luther on have found it difficult to relate to these figures. From a Pentecostal point of view, in particular, those characters can sometimes be an embarrassment, as their personal lives appear to be in stark tension with the purity-conscious, holy life to be expected of those touched by the Spirit of God. Apart from the moments of power, where is God in the lives of these characters? As the title suggests, it is time to listen and learn from God’s role and perspective in these stories, who in faithfulness to his covenant acts with constant patience to save his flawed servants.

Through a fresh hearing of The Unheard Voice of God the positive message of the book of Judges can become more apparent and accessible. Readers are shown a crucial part of the book’s dynamics which they may have missed.

Recenzii

“Martin can rightly and proudly (if a Pentecostal can be proud) make a claim: ‘My work is the most detailed study of the role of God as character within the narrative of Judges and the first to focus on the speeches of Yahweh within the book’ (p. 283). Yes! This is a major contribution that has been done with sustained discipline and sensibility. I observe that unless I have missed something, there is nothing particularly Pentecostal about his reading except…a major except!… the readiness to push on toward theological matters and to dare interpretive issues that fly in the face of our usual positive reductions. This study is a major contribution that I welcome, and a winsome affirmation about method that is critically responsible and post-critically venturesome in a most responsible way.” – Walter Brueggemann, Journal of Pentecostal Theology Volume 18.1 (2009).
