Having been discarded into the oblivion of "heretics", the figure of Juan de Valdés only began to be recovered at the end of the 19th century. Initially associated with Protestantism, Valdés has been portrayed by a range of writers who have each tried to classify him in one of the religious categories of the time: erasmian, catholic, alumbrado or protestant. However, the very diversity of portraits only confirmed the need for a more eclectic point of view. In his book Manuel Martinez-Ortega examines particular religious trends, texts and tendencies of Valdes time and context in order to identify, through the analysis of his writings, the particular characteristics and emphases of his eclecticism. His writings include commentaries on the Bible, with translation from Greek into Spanish, as well as a sizable "spiritual manual" and something like theological sketches, all of which portray his convictions and message. The analysis of his writings and their background reveal that, within the movement of Spanish Protestantism, Juan de Valdes constitutes a clear example of religious currents that received and assimilated key principles of the Protestant Reformation.

Amandus Polanus (15611610) has often been described as a highly significant theologian, but also a neglected one. Part of Polanus significance comes from his inclusion of ethics and practical application in his discussion of theology and the way in which his theology mixes Ramist dichotomies and the scholastic distinctions common in Christian Aristotelianism. Stephen B. Tipton shows how Polanus understanding of Gods essence and attributes is built upon the ground of scripture, arranged with the aid of logical arguments and reasoning, and aimed at the worship and glory of the Triune God. Tipton defends this conclusion against previous research which suggests that Polanus theology is grounded in rationalism and subordinates the Trinity beneath an Aristotelian notion of Gods perfect unity. This research not only corrects these previous notions about Polanus, but it also provides greater insight into the early Reformed Orthodox period and the theology that arose from that time.

At the Synod of Dordrecht (161819), the deep questions of justification and faith, election and rejection, time and eternity, grace and free will, the individual and the body of Christ, Israel and the church, the acquisition of salvation through Christ and its application by His Spirit, baptism and regeneration, and especially the precise relationship between these, were at stake. These deep questions are addressed in this study. Lines are drawn to the historical, theological and political context of the time of the synod. Patristics and the Middle Ages are not absent, nor are the metaphysical questions related to these theological issues. Also the church polity of Dordt is discussed, especially the roots, influences and structures of its church order. This volume ends with a hermeneutical reflection on the way we confess the electing God today.

Richard Baxter (16151691) was arguably the greatest English Puritan of the seventeenth century. He is well known for his ministerial manual "The Reformed Pastor", in which he expressed the unusual conviction that parish ministers were better off unmarried. And yet, Baxter seemed to contradict himself by marrying one of his parishioners, Margaret Charlton. Though Baxter claimed to be happily married, he continued to champion celibacy for the rest of his life. This book explores Baxters argument for clerical celibacy by placing it in the context of his life and the turbulent events of seventeenth-century England. His viewpoint was shaped by several factors, including the Puritan literature he read, the context of his parish ministry, his burdensome model of soul care, and the formative life experiences shaping his theology and perspective. These factors not only explain why Baxter became the only Puritan to champion clerical celibacy but also why he continued to do so even after marrying.

Als Experten gelingt es ihnen, die zentralen Zusammenhange zwischen lutherischem und calvinistischem Denken nachvollziehbar und prazise aufzuzeigen.Mit ihrem nachdrucklichen Hinweis auf die immense Wirkung Luthers auf den Calvinismus leisten sie insgesamt einen Meilenstein auf dem Weg zur Erforschung der Bedeutung Martin Luthers fur die Geistesgeschichte Europas.

This volume contains the collection of papers presented at the 11th International Congress on Calvin Research that took place in Zurich in 2014, and was hosted by the Institute for Swiss Reformation history. While many colleagues of Calvin addressed him in their letters as Pastor Ecclesiae (Pastor of the Church), this is also the position he held when he passed away, 450 years before the congress in Zurich took place. The first part of the book consists of the plenary papers presented by leading scholars in Reformation history and theology, uncovering new grounds in Calvin research that may well evoke further research. In the second part, the seminars held at the Congress are published, and the third part consists of a selection of short papers presented at the Congress. These papers cover a wide variety of themes related to Calvin. They demonstrate that the interest in Calvin research since the Calvin-year in 2009 is even growing and that there is still much to be discovered.With contributions by: Forrest Buckner, Amy Nelson Burnett, Esther Chung-Kim, Max Engammare, Patrizio Foresta, Aurelio Garcia, Christian Grosse, Pierrick Hildebrand, R.

Im Juni 2011 fand die erste Konferenz des Reformation Research Consortium (RefoRC) am Institut fur Schweizerische Reformgeschichte an der Theologischen Fakultat Zurich statt. Der Titel Mythos der Reformation ermutigte kritische Perspektiven auf herkommliche Vorstellungen uber die Reformation des 16. Jahrhunderts. Peter Opitz bietet eine Auswahl von dort gehaltenen Vortragen und versammelt facettenreiche Aspekte und Perspektiven zur Thematik. Dadurch gelingt es Opitz zumindest einen Mythos zu widerlegen, namlich dass die Reformationszeit eine langweilige Periode war, in der es nicht viel mehr auer den herkommlichen Mythen zu entdecken gabe.

Sergio Rosell Nebreda focuses on how the Philippian Christ-followers received Pauls letter. The social, historical, literary, rhetorical, anthropological and theological elements are dealt with in order to understand the effect Paul wanted to achieve.The main thesis of the book is that the apostle Paul, who greatly suffered at Philippi, and writing from a prison, desires to affect the Philippians believers to acquire a Christ-orientation based on the values expressed in the Christ-hymn. Phlp 2, 511 forms the core of Pauls theological narrative that aims at constructing a sense of imitatio and conformatio in the Christ-following community. Paul uses a friendly style in his letters in order to produce rapport and trust in the community, presenting himself as examplum ad imitando, after that of Christ. It is because Paul so fully identifies with Christs orientation in life that the apostle presents himself as a slave of Jesus Christ.In the midst of a society ill with the desire for honour and power, the Christ narrative stands as a radical call for an alternative life-style, based on the exercise of humility which seeks the interest of others rather than focusing on ones own needs and desires. Paul insists on the basis of the Christ-hymn that such a life-style reveals Gods character and it is therefore a life rewarded. Through the use of Social Identity Theory this book evaluates how ancient people constructed their group identity in daily life and how through a seemingly inferior model (that of Christs kenosis in 2, 511) the community receives a re-definition of values which are according to Gods values, and who has the last word in history. Paul thus presents an alternative and viable way of life in the midst of a society he knows well.

This volume is a festschrift in honor of Steven Fraade, the Mark Taper Professor of the History of Judaism at Yale University. The contributions to the volume, written by colleagues and former students of Professor Fraade, reflect many of his scholarly interests. The scholarly credentials of the contributors are exceedingly high. The volume is divided into three sections, one on Second Temple literature and its afterlife, a second on rabbinic literature and rabbinic history, and a third on prayer and the ancient synagogue.Contributors are Alan Applebaum, Joshua Burns , Elizabeth Shanks Alexander , Chaya Halberstam , John J. Collins, Marc Bregman, Aharon Shemesh, Ishay Rosen-Zvi, Vered Noam, Robert Brody, Albert Baumgarten, Marc Hirshman, Moshe Bar-Asher, Aaron Amit, Yose Yahalom, Lee Levine, Jan Joosten, Daniel Boyarin, Charlotte Hempel, David Stern, Beth Berkowitz, Azzan Yadin, Joshua Levinson, Elitzur Bar-Asher Siegal, Michal Bar-Asher Siegal, Tzvi Novick, Devora Diamant, Richard Kalmin, Carol Bakhos, Judith Hauptman, Jeff Rubenstein, Martha Himmelfarb, Stuart Miller, Esther Chazon, James Kugel, Chaim Milikowsky, Maren Niehoff, Peter Schaefer, and Adiel Schremer.

This extensive bibliographic essay underpins the entire Tarragona Vortex study by focusing on this arena as one of the most contested frontiers in Western history, comparable to Jerusalem in the East, for broad issues of Romanization, Westernization, Islamization, and Christianization. Its book length chapters treat (1) diverse historiographies from local and Spanish to comparative Mediterranean and Crusade History, and especially Ethno-historiography and the explanatory concept of frontiers; (2) the phenomena of religion conversion and reform, and the conditioning agents of Islam and Latin Christianity in practice and adversity; (3) religious universalism and violence, especially religious war; (4) the Crusade and Reconquest paradigms and century-long debate; (5) the environment on land and sea, and setting for this History. Although these themes are explored to include due reconsideration but avoid major digressions in its telling about Tarragona and the Tarraconensis, they underly so much of Late-Antique and Medieval historical research that this discussion pertains to the whole field of historical, cultural, and religious studies.

Miika Tucker comprises a translation technical study of the Septuagint version of Jeremiah for the purpose of characterizing the translation. The conclusions draw from different types of changes that occur between chapters 128 (Jer a) and 2952 (Jer b). Certain differences between the two reflect the revisional characteristics of the kaige tradition, which suggests that they were produced by a reviser who was invested in a revisionary tradition similar to kaige. Other differences constitute a change toward more natural Greek expression, which is the opposite of what one would expect from a revision since Greek idiom usually does not correspond to the formal characteristics of Hebrew. Such differences are to be understood to reflect a change toward more intuitive use of the Greek language by the first translator. Changes toward less formal equivalence of the Hebrew and the growth of the Hebrew text after the initial translation combined to form conducive conditions for revision.

Peter Lampes work has covered a wide range of fields, the common denominator being his interest in contextualizing belief systems. Mirroring his multifaced work, the authors pursue his interest from different interdisciplinary angles, addressing the interdependence between religious expressions and their situations or contexts. The application of theoretical models to texts examples flanks the inspiring theoretical epistemological and methodological reflections. Studies in socio-economic and political history adjoin archaeological, epigraphic, papyrological and iconographic investigations. (Social-)psychological interpretations of texts complement rhetorical analyses. The hermeneutical reception of biblical materials in, for example, the Koran and Christian Chinese or Orthodox contexts, as well as in religious education and homiletics, rounds off the volumes.

The study analyzes four macro-areas of Walter Mosterts theology of justification in dialogue with alternative approaches as a source of relevant theological insights. Mostert avoids both subjectivism and objectivism, understanding theology as the soteriological answer to sin as the usurpation of Gods salvific prerogative. Justification is Gods saving act, received in faith as ones being-in-Christ. It establishes an anthropology in which the human being is defined not by personal deeds but by the gifted Gospel. Justification is thus distinct from ideological thinking and its theory-praxis model. It founds the Church and serves as the basis for ecumenical consensus. Despite certain one-sided aspects, Mosterts theology allows for a clear articulation of the Gospel. [Walter Mosterts Gedanken zur Rechtfertigung. Argumente fur eine neue Perspektive in der christlichen Theologie] Die Studie analysiert vier Makrobereiche von Walter Mosterts Rechtfertigungstheologie im Dialog mit alternativen Ansatzen als Quelle aktueller theologischer Impulse. Mostert meidet Subjektivismus und Objektivismus und versteht Theologie als die soteriologische Antwort auf die Sunde als Anmaung des gottlichen Heilsprarogativs. Rechtfertigung ist Gottes Heilshandeln, das im Glauben als Sein-in-Christus empfangen wird. Sie begrundet eine Anthropologie, in der der Mensch durch das geschenkte Evangelium, nicht durch das eigene Tun bestimmt ist. Rechtfertigung unterscheidet sich daher vom Theorie-Praxis-Modell ideologischen Denkens. Sie grundet die Kirche und ist die Basis fur okumenischen Konsens. Trotz aller Einseitigkeit ermoglicht Mosterts Theologie eine klare Profilierung des Evangeliums.

Benedetto Neola explores how late antique Neoplatonists, from Iamblichus in the third-fourth century to Damascius in the fifth-sixth, reimagined what it meant to be a true philosopher. For them, the philosopher was not simply a thinker or tireless talker, but a divine soul sent by the gods to rescue humanity from the material world. Figures like Pythagoras, Socrates, and Plato are portrayed as untouched by the charms of the sensible realm. Always connected to the divine, they are ritual practitioners whose sacred mission is carried out not through temple rites, but through speech itself understood as the highest offering to the gods. These divinely inspired words, spoken in a state of possession and revealing truths about the divine, are the noblest form of ritual: an act that unites the philosopher with the gods and brings salvation to others. Combining philosophy, theology, and ritual, the author uncovers a forgotten dimension of ancient thought in which words save souls.

Andrew R. Johnson asks why it is the case that "believing" is centrally significant in and for Christianity. He argues that if we attend to the various implicit dimensions of explicit faith and to the holistic character of Christian believing then this central significance becomes more intelligible. The study aims to be a work of Protestant systematic theology, first and foremost, but one that is of ecumenical value. Johnson engages continental, analytic, and American pragmatic philosophers as they reflect on the human phenomenon of believing, intentional action, embodied cognition, and the relation between theory and practice. Theologically the study engages with Lutheran, Reformed, Anglican and Roman Catholic theologians as they reflect on the nature of faith in Christ amidst the concrete realities of life and the encounter with God through those concrete realities. Key interlocutors of the study include Rudolf Bultmann, Karl Barth, Cornelius Ernst, Fergus Kerr, Ludwig Wittgenstein, H.H. Price, Robert Brandom, and Andrew Inkpin, in addition to others.

Most scholars of Reformed orthodoxy devote little attention to the nineteenth century, and most students of nineteenth century Reformed thought bypass the influence of Reformed orthodox ideas on their subjects. Aligning himself with Reformed theology in nineteenth century America, Charles Hodges writings are an ideal place to bring such studies together. Hodges American context and Reformed identity illustrate the persistence and change of Reformed ideas in a post-Enlightenment context. Encompassing philosophy, science, and theology, Ryan M. McGraw traces the development of Hodges ideas with an eye both to Reformed orthodoxy and to American thought.

For centuries it has been discussed whether systematic theology is a scientific discipline. But it is not obvious what is meant by either "systematic theology" or "scientific discipline". Michael Agerbo Mrch presents an understanding of systematic theology as a tripartite discipline and science as a rationally justified public discourse about a given topic. Systematic theology is shown to meet the most generally accepted criteria for scientific work, since its theories can be tested and even falsified in an intersubjective setting. This can be done by the most proper tool we have for assessing and comparing scientific theories, which is coherence theory. Therefore, even though systematic theology is a distinct and normative discipline, it is not compromising for its theories because it can present its theses in a transparent way that can be checked and criticized by peers and compared to relevant alternatives. As such, the book shows that systematic theology is a scientifically strong discourse that meets accepted criteria to the same degree as other disciplines.
