Story of the Bible

by Wansbrough, Henry
No customer reviews yet ISBN 9780232526417

Did the early church leaders deliberately suppress writings about Jesus from the Bible because they would have threatened their power? Why are there different Catholic and Protestant versions of the Bible? Henry Wansbrough tells the story of why some writings came to be accepted as part of the Bible and other not. He describes how the Bible was translated into a single Latin version which was the standard text for a thousand years and the hard-fought battle which forged the incomparable monument of the first Bible in English.

Spiritual Complaint: The Theology and Practice of Lament
<b>A selection of essays exploring the biblical tradition of lament in the face of tragedy, and its role in the life of the modern Church.</b> <p/>Every life, and every land and people, has reasons for lament and complaint. This collection of essays explores the biblical foundations and the contemporary resonances of lament literature. <p/>This new work presents a variety of responses to tragedy and a world out of joint are explored. These responses arise from Scripture, from within the liturgy of the church, and from beyond the church&#x3b; in contemporary life (the racially conflicted land of Aotearoa- New Zealand, secular music concerts and cyber-space). The book thus reflects upon theological and pastoral handling of such experience, as it bridges these different worlds. It brings together in conversation specialists from different fields of academy and church to provide a resource for integrating faith and scholarship in dark places.
