A guide for reading and understanding difficult New Testament verses

  • Does Matthew 5:34 say that oath-taking is wrong?
  • What does 1 Corinthians 10:23 mean by "everything is permissible"?
  • Who were the angels that "abandoned their role" in Jude 6?
  • What are the thousand years of Revelation 20:4?


While the core message of the New Testament is clear, we often encounter puzzling, alarming, or confusing sections when we get into the details. In this second volume of Navigating Tough Texts, Murray J. Harris concisely considers more than eighty tricky passages in the New Testament. He shows how these texts offer insights with implications for theology, apologetics, mission, and the Christian life.

Navigating Tough Texts, Volume 2 is a sure guide for pastors, students, and curious Christians who want to be better readers of the tough passages in the Bible.

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.
