This is first done by conceptualising identity crisis as a psychological phenomenon using frameworks of authenticity and attachment to explain the impact of early attachment abuse, abandonment depression, insecure attachment anxiety with God, and self-regulation on the identity formation of the youth. Secondly, the paper introduces a missional hermeneutic that provides an interpretative framework for coping with the crises of identity amongst young people. A missional hermeneutic of care for coping with the crisis of identity formation, therefore, elaborates on the missional basis of biblical interpretation as a powerful framework within which to interpret a skewed, conflicted identity. The author herewith proposes a missional opportunity that can activate the missional consciousness of young people in their time of crisis and identity formation. Furthermore, the author insists that this missional methodology can be a very useful strategy for producing therapeutic change in young people and can help youth ministry workers and pastoral caregivers to reframe the crisis of youth identity from the perspective of 'missio Dei'.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/27440179" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="ad0b400209ee90d1d2c18650a515401b" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":47697382,"asset_id":27440179,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/47697382/download_file?st=MTczOTc5ODgzNyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="35316" href="https://regent.academia.edu/VCounted">Victor Counted</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="35316" type="text/json">{"id":35316,"first_name":"Victor","last_name":"Counted","domain_name":"regent","page_name":"VCounted","display_name":"Victor Counted","profile_url":"https://regent.academia.edu/VCounted?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/35316/11628/150376992/s65_victor.counted.jpeg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_27440179 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="27440179"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 27440179, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_27440179", });

This is first done by conceptualising identity crisis as a psychological phenomenon using frameworks of authenticity and attachment to explain the impact of early attachment abuse, abandonment depression, insecure attachment anxiety with God, and self-regulation on the identity formation of the youth. Secondly, the paper introduces a missional hermeneutic that provides an interpretative framework for coping with the crises of identity amongst young people. A missional hermeneutic of care for coping with the crisis of identity formation, therefore, elaborates on the missional basis of biblical interpretation as a powerful framework within which to interpret a skewed, conflicted identity. The author herewith proposes a missional opportunity that can activate the missional consciousness of young people in their time of crisis and identity formation. Furthermore, the author insists that this missional methodology can be a very useful strategy for producing therapeutic change in young people and can help youth ministry workers and pastoral caregivers to reframe the crisis of youth identity from the perspective of 'missio Dei'.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":47697382,"asset_id":27440179,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":35316,"first_name":"Victor","last_name":"Counted","domain_name":"regent","page_name":"VCounted","display_name":"Victor Counted","profile_url":"https://regent.academia.edu/VCounted?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/35316/11628/150376992/s65_victor.counted.jpeg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":109,"name":"Christianity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Christianity?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":221,"name":"Psychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Psychology?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":243,"name":"Positive Psychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Positive_Psychology?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":1047,"name":"Behavioral Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Behavioral_Sciences?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":1302,"name":"Theology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theology?f_ri=109"},{"id":1557,"name":"Youth Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Youth_Studies?f_ri=109"},{"id":2279,"name":"Missiology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Missiology?f_ri=109"},{"id":2547,"name":"Practical theology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Practical_theology?f_ri=109"},{"id":4691,"name":"Psychology of Religion","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Psychology_of_Religion?f_ri=109"},{"id":6280,"name":"Missiology and Mission Theology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Missiology_and_Mission_Theology?f_ri=109"},{"id":10053,"name":"Mission Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Mission_Studies?f_ri=109"},{"id":13197,"name":"Language and Identity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Language_and_Identity?f_ri=109"},{"id":14832,"name":"Positive Youth Development","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Positive_Youth_Development?f_ri=109"},{"id":17403,"name":"Pastoral Theology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Pastoral_Theology?f_ri=109"},{"id":25953,"name":"Young People","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Young_People?f_ri=109"},{"id":46039,"name":"Youth","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Youth?f_ri=109"},{"id":58308,"name":"Pastoral Care and Counselling","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Pastoral_Care_and_Counselling?f_ri=109"},{"id":71860,"name":"Pastoral Psychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Pastoral_Psychology?f_ri=109"},{"id":78096,"name":"Pastoral Counseling","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Pastoral_Counseling?f_ri=109"},{"id":78277,"name":"Spiritual care","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Spiritual_care?f_ri=109"},{"id":267727,"name":"Christian Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Christian_Studies?f_ri=109"},{"id":345407,"name":"Psychology and Religion","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Psychology_and_Religion?f_ri=109"},{"id":787515,"name":"Psychology of Religion and Spirituality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Psychology_of_Religion_and_Spirituality?f_ri=109"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_35035727" data-work_id="35035727" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/35035727/Jewish_Ethics_and_Nonhuman_Animals">Jewish Ethics and Nonhuman Animals</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Westerners have long admired the nature-friendly qualities of Eastern spiritual traditions, such as ahimsa and reincarnation, which tie human beings to the circle of life that reaches across species and which requires a compassionate... <a class="more_link u-tcGrayDark u-linkUnstyled" data-container=".work_35035727" data-show=".complete" data-hide=".summarized" data-more-link-behavior="true" href="#">more</a></div><div class="complete hidden">Westerners have long admired the nature-friendly qualities of Eastern spiritual traditions, such as ahimsa and reincarnation, which tie human beings to the circle of life that reaches across species and which requires a compassionate approach to all living beings.

La peculiarità del libro, che è frutto di un accurato studio critico delle relative fonti primarie e secondarie, consiste nel tipo di approccio: le due figure e le loro opere sono esaminate sullo sfondo dei differenti ambiti culturali in cui si sono sviluppate le vicende della loro vita, pur nella contemporaneità: la differenza di ambiti culturali consente di evidenziare di questa donna e di questo uomo non solo la validità del loro lungo rapporto amicale, testimoniate da alcune lettere di Sinesio a noi pervenute, ma anche l'alto valore interculturale di tale rapporto.

Rejecting the medieval tradition of church education primarily for and by the clergy, Martin Luther argued that all Christians need to be educated to be able to read the Bible on their own, to participate fully in the life of the church, state, and society, and to prepare for their distinct vocations. Lutheran Germany and Scandinavia thus set up public schools as "civic seminaries," in Philip Melanchthon's apt phrase, designed to offer general spiritual and civic education for all. In early modern Lutheran lands, the state replaced the church as the chief educator of the community, and free basic education with standard curricula was made compulsory for all children, boys and girls alike.

The Article offers case studies of new German city and territorial laws on education on the books and in action, and it reflects on the enduring significance of this early experiment in education even in our day.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":61744716,"asset_id":41587645,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":116656678,"first_name":"John","last_name":"Witte, Jr.","domain_name":"emory","page_name":"JohnWitteJr","display_name":"John Witte, Jr.","profile_url":"https://emory.academia.edu/JohnWitteJr?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/116656678/28474126/26627414/s65_john.witte_jr..jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":106,"name":"Religion","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Religion?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":109,"name":"Christianity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Christianity?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":128,"name":"History","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/History?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":922,"name":"Education","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Education?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":5150,"name":"Lutheranism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Lutheranism?f_ri=109"},{"id":14893,"name":"Church History","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Church_History?f_ri=109"},{"id":36017,"name":"Martin Luther","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Martin_Luther?f_ri=109"},{"id":50576,"name":"Germany","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Germany?f_ri=109"},{"id":191780,"name":"Philipp Melanchthon","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philipp_Melanchthon?f_ri=109"},{"id":2916882,"name":"Johannes Brenz","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Johannes_Brenz?f_ri=109"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_12497566" data-work_id="12497566" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/12497566/Pope_St_John_Paul_II_and_Scripture_Scholarship">Pope St. John Paul II and Scripture Scholarship</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest">Pope St. John Paul II takes his predecessors' exhortations to use the historical-critical method seriously and deals specifically and frankly with the</div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/12497566" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="45b8d9c7587db06bd179672765309032" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":37693540,"asset_id":12497566,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/37693540/download_file?st=MTczOTc5ODgzNyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="2986489" href="https://newman-ca.academia.edu/BrettFawcett">Brett Fawcett</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="2986489" type="text/json">{"id":2986489,"first_name":"Brett","last_name":"Fawcett","domain_name":"newman-ca","page_name":"BrettFawcett","display_name":"Brett Fawcett","profile_url":"https://newman-ca.academia.edu/BrettFawcett?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/2986489/985881/18891467/s65_brett.fawcett.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_12497566 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="12497566"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 12497566, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_12497566", });

The Supreme Court case of Walz v. Commission charted a course between the free exercise and establishment clause. The Court argued from neutrality, separatism, and history to state that tax exemption of church property is part of an unbroken national tradition. However, the Court’s neutrality argument does not address constitutionality, its separatism argument is contrived, and historically, only established religions have been exempt from taxation. <br /> <br />Past tax exemptions are rooted in two traditions: the common law adopted from England that granted exemptions to established churches, and the equity law tradition that granted exemptions to all churches. The common law tradition was restricted to certain types of church property of established churches, and the exemptions could be put on hold during times of emergency. The equity tradition gave churches another chance; ecclesiastical and charitable organizations could be tax exempt. <br /> <br />These traditions continued uninterrupted in the early American republic. Three provisions ultimately provided ground for a challenge to the tax exemption of church property. The disestablishment of religion undercut the authority of officials to prefer one religion over the other. The truncation of the equity tradition removed the equitable privileges given to charities. Finally, equal and uniform taxation was considered a basis of American life. <br /> <br />In modern theory, churches are seen as beneficial to society because they promote public morality, charity, and education. The law of equity is now based in statutory schemes or state constitutions, but the religious use of property is key to its tax exempt status. In the future, courts must find a via media between the eradication of exemptions and blanket endorsements.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/41587772" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="c8986f980cf245c4810e4bbcfde7c613" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":61744835,"asset_id":41587772,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61744835/download_file?st=MTczOTc5ODgzOCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="116656678" href="https://emory.academia.edu/JohnWitteJr">John Witte, Jr.</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="116656678" type="text/json">{"id":116656678,"first_name":"John","last_name":"Witte, Jr.","domain_name":"emory","page_name":"JohnWitteJr","display_name":"John Witte, Jr.","profile_url":"https://emory.academia.edu/JohnWitteJr?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/116656678/28474126/26627414/s65_john.witte_jr..jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_41587772 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="41587772"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 41587772, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_41587772", });

The irreducible content of the practice of Reiki is identified as putative manipulation of the healing energy known as ki by practitioners initiated through an attunement ritual using secret symbols. Some general problems of describing ki in the language of Catholic theology are discussed. Certain critiques of Reiki by Christian groups are found to be inadequate on the grounds of attributing guilt by association, or targeting beliefs not necessarily held by all Reiki practitioners. Nevertheless, attempting to manipulate ki according to the principles of Reiki is found not to accord with Christian revelation, and the necessity of practitioners being initiated by the use of secret symbols is particularly problematic. Some recommendations are made concerning the pastoral consequences of this conclusion: avoidance of promoting Reiki in a church context, appropriate support for Christians who have received or practiced Reiki themselves, and addressing the provision of Reiki through the public health care system.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/10434410" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="8fb955dc64777f33326ea84d403332ea" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":36477292,"asset_id":10434410,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/36477292/download_file?st=MTczOTc5ODgzOCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="25624967" href="https://cardiff.academia.edu/GarethLeyshon">Gareth Leyshon</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="25624967" type="text/json">{"id":25624967,"first_name":"Gareth","last_name":"Leyshon","domain_name":"cardiff","page_name":"GarethLeyshon","display_name":"Gareth Leyshon","profile_url":"https://cardiff.academia.edu/GarethLeyshon?f_ri=109","photo":"https://gravatar.com/avatar/575fd683e09410b33a5d579ad24a01b1?s=65"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_10434410 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="10434410"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 10434410, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_10434410", });

Some recommendations are made concerning the pastoral consequences of this conclusion: avoidance of promoting Reiki in a church context, appropriate support for Christians who have received or practiced Reiki themselves, and addressing the provision of Reiki through the public health care system.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":36477292,"asset_id":10434410,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":25624967,"first_name":"Gareth","last_name":"Leyshon","domain_name":"cardiff","page_name":"GarethLeyshon","display_name":"Gareth Leyshon","profile_url":"https://cardiff.academia.edu/GarethLeyshon?f_ri=109","photo":"https://gravatar.com/avatar/575fd683e09410b33a5d579ad24a01b1?s=65"}],"research_interests":[{"id":106,"name":"Religion","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Religion?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":109,"name":"Christianity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Christianity?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":23179,"name":"Astrophysics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Astrophysics?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":48550,"name":"Religious Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Religious_Studies?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":267727,"name":"Christian Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Christian_Studies?f_ri=109"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_20575046" data-work_id="20575046" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/20575046/Jacob_B%C3%B6hme_The_Teutonic_Philosopher">Jacob Böhme - The Teutonic Philosopher</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/20575046" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="1e698ab4f69255ad4564d6b64de011c5" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":41445677,"asset_id":20575046,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/41445677/download_file?st=MTczOTc5ODgzOCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="41928152" href="https://independent.academia.edu/GuilhermeFerreira63">Guilherme Ferreira</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="41928152" type="text/json">{"id":41928152,"first_name":"Guilherme","last_name":"Ferreira","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"GuilhermeFerreira63","display_name":"Guilherme Ferreira","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/GuilhermeFerreira63?f_ri=109","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_20575046 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="20575046"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 20575046, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_20575046", });

On May 18, 2018, a shooter entered Santa Fe High School, killing eight students and two teachers. Using ethnographic methods, this research examines the role of faith, rituals, language, and symbols in the trauma-affected community during the response, recovery, and resiliency efforts as perceived by the Santa Fe community and those impacted by the tragedy. Qualitative data collected from 100 individuals ages of 17-84 illustrated how historical trauma, community culture, and faith-based organizations impact community resiliency and how illusions of a homogenous view of the community left many feeling shocked, divided, forgotten or muted.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/80066888" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="f288e8bc5e3c45feef7817835fb7057b" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":86571948,"asset_id":80066888,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/86571948/download_file?st=MTczOTc5ODgzOCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="65310508" href="https://unt.academia.edu/MandyJordan">Mandy Jordan</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="65310508" type="text/json">{"id":65310508,"first_name":"Mandy","last_name":"Jordan","domain_name":"unt","page_name":"MandyJordan","display_name":"Mandy Jordan","profile_url":"https://unt.academia.edu/MandyJordan?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/65310508/74088336/62579621/s65_mandy.jordan.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_80066888 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="80066888"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 80066888, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_80066888", });

Many Christians and non-Christians alike were quick to share their two cents; some were disgusted, some were enraged, but most were deeply heartbroken by the horrors of sin. A few weeks after the terrible revelation, Kyle J. Howard, a writer, and a trauma-informed soul-care provider wrote an article about how the responses of ministry leaders to Zacharias’ deviant private life fall “woefully short.” In a 45-minute video posted on Twitter, Howard explained the rationale behind the write-up, saying that he read various alarming statements on the said issue given by church leaders—pastors and seminary professors—that express a degree of identification, and even worse, empathy with the abuser rather than the abused. These statements and the names of the individuals who gave them, however, were not cited in the article, thus, the premise: ‘ministry leaders’ rush to empathize with Zacharias’ may or may not necessarily be true; it may just be a skewed view of the consensus unless proven otherwise. Howard further stated that the reason for his non-disclosure is to avoid the misdirection and truncation of his message to specific individuals rather than focusing on general principles of toxic speech and power dynamics in church. In the article, Howard explained that the reason for problematic responses could be a flawed view of sanctification and false humility masked as self-deprecation. <br /><br /> Without a doubt, Howard raises relevant points and shows great concern towards the abused. Although I have several disagreements with his claims, instead of being critical, I aim to give a perspective on how ordained ministry leaders can best address serious ministerial misconducts in the church.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/48029876" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="b66b8d515eefb06bdb536e6125e454d8" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":66850890,"asset_id":48029876,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/66850890/download_file?st=MTczOTc5ODgzOCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="169830123" href="https://ats.academia.edu/LiuzyannrhebbRobregado">Liuzyannrhebb Robregado</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="169830123" type="text/json">{"id":169830123,"first_name":"Liuzyannrhebb","last_name":"Robregado","domain_name":"ats","page_name":"LiuzyannrhebbRobregado","display_name":"Liuzyannrhebb Robregado","profile_url":"https://ats.academia.edu/LiuzyannrhebbRobregado?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/169830123/62778755/51075240/s65_liuzyannrhebb.robregado.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_48029876 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="48029876"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 48029876, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_48029876", });

Many Christians and non-Christians alike were quick to share their two cents; some were disgusted, some were enraged, but most were deeply heartbroken by the horrors of sin. A few weeks after the terrible revelation, Kyle J. Howard, a writer, and a trauma-informed soul-care provider wrote an article about how the responses of ministry leaders to Zacharias’ deviant private life fall “woefully short.” In a 45-minute video posted on Twitter, Howard explained the rationale behind the write-up, saying that he read various alarming statements on the said issue given by church leaders—pastors and seminary professors—that express a degree of identification, and even worse, empathy with the abuser rather than the abused. These statements and the names of the individuals who gave them, however, were not cited in the article, thus, the premise: ‘ministry leaders’ rush to empathize with Zacharias’ may or may not necessarily be true; it may just be a skewed view of the consensus unless proven otherwise. Howard further stated that the reason for his non-disclosure is to avoid the misdirection and truncation of his message to specific individuals rather than focusing on general principles of toxic speech and power dynamics in church. In the article, Howard explained that the reason for problematic responses could be a flawed view of sanctification and false humility masked as self-deprecation. \n\n\tWithout a doubt, Howard raises relevant points and shows great concern towards the abused. Although I have several disagreements with his claims, instead of being critical, I aim to give a perspective on how ordained ministry leaders can best address serious ministerial misconducts in the church.

This doctrine not only invites reflection on an intellectual concept: it calls for contemplation of the endlessly complex, dynamic, and fascinating world that human being inhabit. But the possibilities for wide-ranging discussion are such that scholars sometimes end up talking past one another. Productive conversation requires mutual understanding of insights across disciplinary boundaries. Knowing Creation offers an essential resource for helping scholars from a range of fields to appreciate one another's concerns and perspectives.

This doctrine not only invites reflection on an intellectual concept: it calls for contemplation of the endlessly complex, dynamic, and fascinating world that human being inhabit. But the possibilities for wide-ranging discussion are such that scholars sometimes end up talking past one another. Productive conversation requires mutual understanding of insights across disciplinary boundaries. Knowing Creation offers an essential resource for helping scholars from a range of fields to appreciate one another's concerns and perspectives. In so doing, it offers an important step forward in establishing a mutually-enriching dialogue that addresses, amongst others, the following key questions:\r\n\r\n- Who is the God who creates?\r\n- Why does God create?\r\n- What is \"creation\"?\r\n- What does it mean to recognize that a theology of creation speaks of a natural world that is subject to the observation of the natural sciences?

The article starts by recognizing the puzzling aspects of the prosperity gospel. Someone might be tempted to dismiss it straightaway as simply unchristian and foolish. Looking at the people who are attracted to the prosperity gospel, however, helps in recognizing the prosperity gospel instead as a genuine protest against certain tendencies in the mainline churches. The article suggests that the prosperity gospel might be a celebration of the dignity in pure, spontaneous religious impulses and the dignity in enjoying or wishing to enjoy the good things in life This leaves us with the question of how we can distinguish between a genuine form of the prosperity gospel and forms that are simply is unchristian and foolish. To find answers to these questions the prosperity teaching's interpretation of Abraham is compared to Sören Kierkegaard's reading of Abraham as a knight of faith. This leads to a kind of litmus test to distinguish a genuine prosperity gospel from theologically unacceptable forms of it. Four criteria are presented: 1. Our faith should show gratitude rather than being a form of manipulation; 2. We should recognise the value of both tradition and resignation; 3. A genuine prosperity gospel would be a personal affair always enacted in fear and trembling; and 4. It should be about God and not about you. When these criteria are met, the prosperity gospel can be a theologically valid way to express dignity, so this article concludes-the dignity in pure, spontaneous religious impulses, and in enjoying or wishing to enjoy the good things in life.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/43637263" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="2c0aa7f99e9c007826c812c765012586" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":63938109,"asset_id":43637263,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/63938109/download_file?st=MTczOTc5ODgzOCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="155829388" href="https://up-za.academia.edu/HermenKroesbergen">Hermen Kroesbergen</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="155829388" type="text/json">{"id":155829388,"first_name":"Hermen","last_name":"Kroesbergen","domain_name":"up-za","page_name":"HermenKroesbergen","display_name":"Hermen Kroesbergen","profile_url":"https://up-za.academia.edu/HermenKroesbergen?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/155829388/43538464/34567562/s65_hermen.kroesbergen.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_43637263 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="43637263"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 43637263, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_43637263", });

The article starts by recognizing the puzzling aspects of the prosperity gospel. Someone might be tempted to dismiss it straightaway as simply unchristian and foolish. Looking at the people who are attracted to the prosperity gospel, however, helps in recognizing the prosperity gospel instead as a genuine protest against certain tendencies in the mainline churches. The article suggests that the prosperity gospel might be a celebration of the dignity in pure, spontaneous religious impulses and the dignity in enjoying or wishing to enjoy the good things in life This leaves us with the question of how we can distinguish between a genuine form of the prosperity gospel and forms that are simply is unchristian and foolish. To find answers to these questions the prosperity teaching's interpretation of Abraham is compared to Sören Kierkegaard's reading of Abraham as a knight of faith. This leads to a kind of litmus test to distinguish a genuine prosperity gospel from theologically unacceptable forms of it. Four criteria are presented: 1. Our faith should show gratitude rather than being a form of manipulation; 2. We should recognise the value of both tradition and resignation; 3. A genuine prosperity gospel would be a personal affair always enacted in fear and trembling; and 4. It should be about God and not about you. When these criteria are met, the prosperity gospel can be a theologically valid way to express dignity, so this article concludes-the dignity in pure, spontaneous religious impulses, and in enjoying or wishing to enjoy the good things in life.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":63938109,"asset_id":43637263,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":155829388,"first_name":"Hermen","last_name":"Kroesbergen","domain_name":"up-za","page_name":"HermenKroesbergen","display_name":"Hermen Kroesbergen","profile_url":"https://up-za.academia.edu/HermenKroesbergen?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/155829388/43538464/34567562/s65_hermen.kroesbergen.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":106,"name":"Religion","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Religion?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":109,"name":"Christianity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Christianity?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":902,"name":"Philosophy Of Religion","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy_Of_Religion?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":2561,"name":"Systematic Theology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Systematic_Theology?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":13135,"name":"Southern Africa","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Southern_Africa?f_ri=109"},{"id":14945,"name":"Kierkegaard","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Kierkegaard?f_ri=109"},{"id":19721,"name":"Pentecostalism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Pentecostalism?f_ri=109"},{"id":19878,"name":"Reformed theology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Reformed_theology?f_ri=109"},{"id":23034,"name":"Theory of the good life (Philosophy)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theory_of_the_good_life_Philosophy_?f_ri=109"},{"id":25922,"name":"Zambia","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Zambia?f_ri=109"},{"id":28458,"name":"Neo-Pentecostalism","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Neo-Pentecostalism?f_ri=109"},{"id":44986,"name":"African theology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/African_theology?f_ri=109"},{"id":48550,"name":"Religious Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Religious_Studies?f_ri=109"},{"id":67192,"name":"Dignity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Dignity?f_ri=109"},{"id":75945,"name":"Abraham","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Abraham?f_ri=109"},{"id":137629,"name":"Prosperity Gospel","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Prosperity_Gospel?f_ri=109"},{"id":194361,"name":"African Christianity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/African_Christianity?f_ri=109"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_44897657" data-work_id="44897657" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/44897657/Rabelais_and_Abhinavagupta_Visuvalingam">Rabelais&Abhinavagupta Visuvalingam</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Carnival versus Thélème: The Question of ‘Freedom’ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The best vantage point for understanding ‘transgressive sacrality’ as a universal phenomenon is the... <a class="more_link u-tcGrayDark u-linkUnstyled" data-container=".work_44897657" data-show=".complete" data-hide=".summarized" data-more-link-behavior="true" href="#">more</a></div><div class="complete hidden">Carnival versus Thélème: The Question of ‘Freedom’<br />----------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />The best vantage point for understanding ‘transgressive sacrality’ as a universal phenomenon is the principle of ‘freedom’ (svātantrya), the central concern of Rabelais (1494–1563), Bakhtin (1895–1975), and Abhinavagupta (c. 950–1020).2 The medieval Christian dispensation revolved around the opposition, alternation, and complementarity between the stern, ascetic, otherworldly spiritual ideal of the Church and the periodic extended license of the popular carnival that rejuvenated this world of piety by rendering it topsy-turvy.

Paul abundantly describes burial in water as best fulfilling his own description of baptism in Romans 6:4 and in Colossians 2:12. Paul describes baptism as a personal death of the one who is baptized, being "crucified with Him." This is similar to Peter's description of baptism as salvific and simultaneously, a pledge or promise to give up sin in ! Peter 3:21, as if it's a contract or agreement in which one agrees to give up sin while God in Christ forgives our past sins that He bore in his body on the cross in I Peter 2:24. Paul describes baptism as being buried and rising and being made alive with Christ. Hence, one is forgiven of past sins, circumcised not made with hands, include both male and female, performed by divine arrangement, and the Spirit is given as a gift, at that moment. Baptism is a personal conscious choice by the one baptized to enter a relationship with or being united with Christ. One is baptized into Christ and his death and in that moment one is forgiven, receives the Spirit as a gift, and is raised with Christ and made alive. So Paul who champions grace, nowhere describes baptism in water as a good work to be eschewed, relegated to a work of personal human merit. Let each party bring forth its prooftexts, and we shall conclude that there is no systematic or consistent theology in the Bible. Some think the Mashiach was to be a political or military leader but how does this view fit with the gentle, humble Yeshua who dies and is made aiive? Is there consistency in sacred scripture?</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/78153473" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="cdfb0b3591a97c3a22a98504a4b83ef4" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":85443120,"asset_id":78153473,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/85443120/download_file?st=MTczOTc5ODgzOCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="345752" href="https://collegemhc.academia.edu/DanielKeeran">Daniel M Keeran MSW</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="345752" type="text/json">{"id":345752,"first_name":"Daniel","last_name":"Keeran MSW","domain_name":"collegemhc","page_name":"DanielKeeran","display_name":"Daniel M Keeran MSW","profile_url":"https://collegemhc.academia.edu/DanielKeeran?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/345752/94042/30134256/s65_daniel.keeran_msw.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_78153473 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="78153473"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 78153473, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_78153473", });

Tradition has long held that Moses authored these texts, with little debate on the issue until as late as the seventeenth century A.D. when the Dutch philosopher, Baruch Spinoza, publicly declared his firm conviction that "the Pentateuch was not written by Moses, but by someone who lived after Moses." 1 From that point forward, liberal Protestant theologians began a quest to find the supposed "sources" of the Pentateuch, claiming that those books of Scripture did not date from the time of Moses (either 1400 or 1200 B.C.) but rather from the period after the Babylonian exile (sixth century B.C.). 2 The speculations and hypotheses of these scholars met their apex with the work of nineteenth-century Protestant German biblical scholar, Julius Wellhausen. It was Wellhausen who solidified the so-called "Documentary Hypothesis," which claimed that the Pentateuch and the sacred Jewish law were later, contrived additions to a previously primitive religion. Although Wellhausen and those of his school could cite no factual basis for their theories, their persistence took root in scholarly circles to such an extent that they affect some scholars even to this day, despite archeological and linguistic evidence displaying the falsity of their theories. 3 The Apostolic Fathers and subsequent Ante-Nicene Fathers seemed to have unanimously believed that Moses was the divinely inspired author of the Pentateuch.

Tradition has long held that Moses authored these texts, with little debate on the issue until as late as the seventeenth century A.D. when the Dutch philosopher, Baruch Spinoza, publicly declared his firm conviction that \"the Pentateuch was not written by Moses, but by someone who lived after Moses.\" 1 From that point forward, liberal Protestant theologians began a quest to find the supposed \"sources\" of the Pentateuch, claiming that those books of Scripture did not date from the time of Moses (either 1400 or 1200 B.C.) but rather from the period after the Babylonian exile (sixth century B.C.). 2 The speculations and hypotheses of these scholars met their apex with the work of nineteenth-century Protestant German biblical scholar, Julius Wellhausen. It was Wellhausen who solidified the so-called \"Documentary Hypothesis,\" which claimed that the Pentateuch and the sacred Jewish law were later, contrived additions to a previously primitive religion. Although Wellhausen and those of his school could cite no factual basis for their theories, their persistence took root in scholarly circles to such an extent that they affect some scholars even to this day, despite archeological and linguistic evidence displaying the falsity of their theories. 3 The Apostolic Fathers and subsequent Ante-Nicene Fathers seemed to have unanimously believed that Moses was the divinely inspired author of the Pentateuch.

One text overlooked in this excitement is the Legend of the Thirty Pieces of Silver (Leg. Silv.), which traces the transmission of the coins paid to betray Jesus from Terah’s gift of the coins to Abraham up to Judas’s purchase of the Field of Blood in Acts 1:18-19. Leg. Silv. was a very popular text in medieval times and appears in a number of languages and forms, including Latin, Syriac, and Armenian, along with several European languages: German, English, Italian, Spanish, and Catalan. To date, relatively little work has been done on this text; indeed, there has yet to appear a formal critical edition. This paper aims to address this neglect by presenting, for the first time, an edition of the Syriac branch of the tradition. The text is extant in at least eight Syriac manuscripts, another six in Garšūnī, and it is found also incorporated into the Book of the Bee by Solomon of Basra. The paper includes also an overview of previous scholarship on Leg. Silv. and a discussion of the text’s origins and transmission.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/22506552" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="5efbd1500f5fb3ad8ad5d3239c4a057c" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":43125736,"asset_id":22506552,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/43125736/download_file?st=MTczOTc5ODgzOCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="348829" href="https://bbaw.academia.edu/Slavom%C3%ADr%C4%8C%C3%A9pl%C3%B6">Slavomír Čéplö</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="348829" type="text/json">{"id":348829,"first_name":"Slavomír","last_name":"Čéplö","domain_name":"bbaw","page_name":"SlavomírČéplö","display_name":"Slavomír Čéplö","profile_url":"https://bbaw.academia.edu/Slavom%C3%ADr%C4%8C%C3%A9pl%C3%B6?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/348829/235080/29179856/s65_slavom_r._pl_.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_22506552 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="22506552"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 22506552, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_22506552", });

S. Lewis have noted his curious attentiveness to descriptions of food and scenes of eating. Some attempts have been made to interpret Lewis’s use of food, but never in a manner comprehensively unifying Lewis’s culinary expressions with his own thought and beliefs. My study seeks to fill this void. The introduction demonstrates how Lewis’s culinary language aggregates through elements of his life, his literary background, and his Judeo-Christian worldview. Using the grammar of his own culinary language, I examine Lewis’s fiction for patterns found within his meals and analyze these patterns for theological allusions, grouping them according to major categories of systematic theology. Chapter two argues that ecclesiastical themes appear whenever Lewis’s protagonists eat together. The ritualized meal progression, evangelistic discourse, and biographical menus create a unity that points to parallels between Lewis’s body of protagonists and the church. Chapter three focuses on the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper and charges that Lewis’s meals which are eaten in the presence of the novel’s Christ figure or which include bread and wine in the menu reliably align with the Anglo-Catholic doctrine of the Eucharist. Chapter four studies how sinful eating affects the spiritual states of Lewis’s characters. The chapter first shows how Lewis’s culinary language draws from Edenic sources, resonating with a very gastronomic Fall of Humanity, then examines how the progressively sinful eating of certain characters signifies a gradual alienation from the Divine. The fifth, and concluding, chapter argues that Lewis’s portrayal of culinary desire and pleasure ultimately points to an eschatological theme. This theme culminates near the end of Lewis’s novels either through individual characters expressing superlative delight in their food or through a unified congregation of protagonists eating a celebratory feast during the novel’s dénouement. I close the study by emphasizing how this approach to Lewis’s meals offers a complete spiritual analysis of Lewis’s main characters that also consistently supports Lewis’s own theology.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/32419882" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="5d9be71e45e0a66bd4c72a30a6a32138" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":52615839,"asset_id":32419882,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/52615839/download_file?st=MTczOTc5ODgzOCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="19691003" href="https://alaska.academia.edu/GregHartley">Greg Hartley</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="19691003" type="text/json">{"id":19691003,"first_name":"Greg","last_name":"Hartley","domain_name":"alaska","page_name":"GregHartley","display_name":"Greg Hartley","profile_url":"https://alaska.academia.edu/GregHartley?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/19691003/5485477/16649595/s65_greg.hartley.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_32419882 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="32419882"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 32419882, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_32419882", });

S. Lewis","created_at":"2017-04-13T19:56:18.514-07:00","url":"https://www.academia.edu/32419882/Lower_Sacraments_Theological_Eating_in_the_Fiction_of_C_S_Lewis?f_ri=109","dom_id":"work_32419882","summary":"For years, critics and fans of C. S. Lewis have noted his curious attentiveness to descriptions of food and scenes of eating. Some attempts have been made to interpret Lewis’s use of food, but never in a manner comprehensively unifying Lewis’s culinary expressions with his own thought and beliefs. My study seeks to fill this void. The introduction demonstrates how Lewis’s culinary language aggregates through elements of his life, his literary background, and his Judeo-Christian worldview. Using the grammar of his own culinary language, I examine Lewis’s fiction for patterns found within his meals and analyze these patterns for theological allusions, grouping them according to major categories of systematic theology. Chapter two argues that ecclesiastical themes appear whenever Lewis’s protagonists eat together. The ritualized meal progression, evangelistic discourse, and biographical menus create a unity that points to parallels between Lewis’s body of protagonists and the church. Chapter three focuses on the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper and charges that Lewis’s meals which are eaten in the presence of the novel’s Christ figure or which include bread and wine in the menu reliably align with the Anglo-Catholic doctrine of the Eucharist. Chapter four studies how sinful eating affects the spiritual states of Lewis’s characters. The chapter first shows how Lewis’s culinary language draws from Edenic sources, resonating with a very gastronomic Fall of Humanity, then examines how the progressively sinful eating of certain characters signifies a gradual alienation from the Divine. The fifth, and concluding, chapter argues that Lewis’s portrayal of culinary desire and pleasure ultimately points to an eschatological theme. This theme culminates near the end of Lewis’s novels either through individual characters expressing superlative delight in their food or through a unified congregation of protagonists eating a celebratory feast during the novel’s dénouement. I close the study by emphasizing how this approach to Lewis’s meals offers a complete spiritual analysis of Lewis’s main characters that also consistently supports Lewis’s own theology.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":52615839,"asset_id":32419882,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":19691003,"first_name":"Greg","last_name":"Hartley","domain_name":"alaska","page_name":"GregHartley","display_name":"Greg Hartley","profile_url":"https://alaska.academia.edu/GregHartley?f_ri=109","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/19691003/5485477/16649595/s65_greg.hartley.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":109,"name":"Christianity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Christianity?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":1302,"name":"Theology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theology?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":3128,"name":"Sociology of Food and Eating","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sociology_of_Food_and_Eating?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":10535,"name":"Anglicanism (Anglicanism)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Anglicanism_Anglicanism_?f_ri=109","nofollow":true},{"id":30422,"name":"Sacramental Theology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sacramental_Theology?f_ri=109"},{"id":43678,"name":"Food Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Food_Studies?f_ri=109"},{"id":61036,"name":"C.S.
