|  | Teachings on the Prayer of the Heart in the Greek and Syrian Fathers by Jill Gather The prayer of the heart is an early Christian contemplative tradition of striking profundity and beauty. In this work, the inherently embodied, communal nature of this ancient teaching is explored, and its relevance to contemporary mystical seekers is addressed. |
|  | The Spell of the Logos by Mihai Niculescu Origen’s construal of the Bible as a textual incarnation of the Word encourages an assimilationist interpretation of the Hebrew Scriptures as a proto-Christian gospel. Although in partial agreement with this thesis, this study suggests a non-assimilationist reading of Origen’s biblical exegesis. |
|  | The Seven Messages of Revelation and Vassal Treaties by David Graves This book argues that the genre of the seven messages in Revelation 2–3 is a hybrid prophetic oracle. This oracle is influenced by the Old Testament covenantal elements functioning as a set of lawsuit exhortations. Graves defends this by demonstrating the influence of the Ancient Near Eastern vassal treaty structure in the seven messages. Written in a readable format this work is both an excellent introduction to the book of Revelation as well as a fitting work for the apocalyptic specialist. |
|  | Scepticism and Ironic Correlations in the Joy Statements of Qoheleth? by William Anderson Contrary to “popular belief”, the Book of Ecclesiastes (Qoheleth) is not a “book of joy”. Anderson closely examines the seven “joy statements” of Qoheleth which appear to be complex ironies—whereby what is said is both meant and not meant. Consequently Qoheleth still leaves the reader guessing about the meaning of life. |
