With his trademark straightforward teaching style, Andrew Ollerton leads us through Romans - one of the most theologically complex books of the Bible - to discover how an understanding of Paul's longest letter unlocks the whole story of Scripture. It's been said that if the New Testament were the Himalayas, Romans would be Mount Everest. The chapters of this book therefore imagine the contents of the letter as a great mountain landscape - complex, challenging but highly rewarding. Together, we will take on the challenge of ascending to the summit, taking in the view and then descending to put it into practice on the other side.

Christians in the first century lived in a world ruled by Rome. The vast size of the Roman Empire meant that it incorporated many different people groups who followed many different religions. Christians were thus often confronted with practices mandated by the local authorities where they lived that went against their faith in Jesus. But even more problematic, they were also often confronted with worldviews and systems of belief that went against their faith.This was especially true of the believers who lived in the capital city of Rome. So it was that when Paul decided to visit the city, he first sent them a letter outlining the key principles and "doctrines" of the Christian faith. Paul explained what humans are really like (sinful), what God has done to provide an escape from the consequences of humanity''s sin, and what a lifestyle that goes out of a Christian worldview looks like. Today, we need to know the same! We need to have a deep understanding of what we believe so we know how to respond when faced with other beliefs that go against Christ.Each study in the NIV Application Commentary Resources series employs a three-step process to help you understand both ...

To read a passage repeatedly, to examine its ambiguities, to probe its place in a larger text, to reflect on its relationship to other texts by the same author and its place within the canon of Scripture—all of these are acts of committed relationship. As in all committed relationships, the desire to understand is rightly characterized as love. And that desire involves more than a few moments of bewilderment along with insight. When it comes to the Epistle to the Romans, John Chrysostom's plaintive question, "What are you saying, Paul?" is an apt expression of the hermeneutical task, itself a labor of love. Readings in Romans brings together representative studies from Beverly Roberts Gaventa's years of committed relationship with Romans. From the programmatic to specifically exegetical, from those wrestling with the consequences of exegesis—questions of divine power, human freedom, and the identity of Israel vis-á-vis the church—to self-conscious engagement with theologians and writers in conversation with Romans such as Karl Barth and Simone Weil, these essays highlight the contours of Gaventa's extensive and thoughtful work on the apostle and especially his most influential letter. In this way they serve as an encapsulation of her scholarly contributions on Romans and, at ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Letter to the Romans, in Emil Brunner''s estimations, is, of all the books of the Bible, the closest to a theological treatise. Throughout centuries of Christian history, much has depended on the understanding and evaluation of Paul''s letter to the Romans.Theologians have continued to consider the central questions of interpretation: what did Paul want to say to the Romans, and what does God want to say to us today? In Brunner''s meditation on the great Epistle, he elucidates the Pauline arguments and interpretations which have long been foundational to Christian belief.

V knížce veršů Prázdniny s Henrim vydává Lydie Romanská druhý díl svého záměru podat český důkaz o platnosti mínění vynikajícího francouzského estetika a literárního teoretika (1865-1933) Henriho Bremonda, autora knižního eseje Čistá poesie, k jejímuž českému vydání (1935) napsal předmluvu Bremondův vrstevník F. X. Šalda. Bremond podle Šaldy cítí ryzí poezii, blízkou modlitbě, "jako opravdivou moc elementárnou, jako výsostnou sílu a hodnotu životní". Romanská se s respektem poddává svému obdivu k "čisté poesii" v Bremondově pojetí a ve verších s prostými názvy Spínač, Meruňky, Bouřka, Špenát, Nádraží atp. důsledně přijímá Bremondův imperativ. Výsledkem je tajemství jménem poezie, tajemství, o které se neusiluje, které vzniká, je, neboť báseň nic nevysvětluje ani neučí, nechce být pochopena ve smyslu logiky, chce zcela prostě být v souzvuku a rytmu, tajemná nevyslovitelným příběhem, vlastním algoritmem krásy… Básnířka říká, že napsala knihu "o samotě, v jednom prostředí, v jednom rozpoložení, v krátkém časovém úseku", proto je knížka "jednoho ducha, vztahem k realitě homogenní, výstavbou básní osobitá".

Robert Knapp seeks out the ordinary people who formed the fabric of everyday life in ancient Rome and the outlaws and pirates who lay beyond it. They are the housewives, prostitutes, freedmen, slaves, soldiers, and gladiators who lived commonplace lives and left almost no trace in history - until now. But their words are preserved in literature, letters, inscriptions and graffiti and their traces can be found in the histories, treatises, plays and poetry created by the elite. A world lost from view for two millennia is recreated through these, and other, tell-tale bits of evidence cast off by the visible mass of Roman history and culture. Invisible Romans reveals how everyday Romans sought to survive and thrive under the afflictions of disease, war, and violence, and to control their fates under powers that both oppressed and ignored them. Their lives - both familiar and foreign to ours today - are shown against the tumult of a great empire that shaped their worlds as it forged the wider world around them.

Step into the profound world of Paul’s Letter to the Romans, where renowned Pauline scholar and pastor Susan Eastman brings the text to life with rich pastoral and theological insights. This commentary doesn’t just analyze Scripture but invites readers into an encounter with the transformative power of the gospel that shaped Paul’s original audience and continues to resonate today.With preaching and teaching at its heart, Susan Eastman explores Romans as a dynamic proclamation of God’s faithfulness—a message that warms hearts, fires wills, and calls humanity into liberated service to God and one another. Through her keen attention to the letter’s historical context, literary artistry, and theological urgency, Eastman reveals the living presence of a God who keeps promises, remains faithful to Israel, and, through Jesus Christ, sets creation free with abundant grace.Readers are guided through the contexts of the early Roman house churches and Paul’s urgent call for unity and solidarity across cultural and class divides. Close attention to Paul’s rhetoric highlights his use of Scripture and his audience-involving writing style. Eastman also unpacks the deeper purpose behind Paul’s writing—his desire to strengthen his audience spiritually and prepare them to embody the gospel in their lives and ministries.Designed to inspire ...

Celebratory, discerning writing with all the variety and unexpectedness of the wines explored." — Michèle Roberts, author and Emeritus Professor of Creative Writing at the University of East Anglia "This book is about feeling, tasting and describing the beauty of wine, as well as understanding the intensity of emotion that wine can engender." — Decanter Magazine"So precise and dancing, so chiselled and so free, as complex and delicious as your favourite bottle of wine, you will enjoy the world of wine differently after reading through Jefford’s words." — Pascaline Lepeltier on Instagram “A new sort of literary gumption arrived on the scene with Andrew Jefford; a powerful blend of science and poetry. Here is a writer who does his interviews, delves deep into motives and methods, and then lets fly with whatever imagery he finds winging by.” Hugh Johnson (2019) Poet, philosopher, author, radio presenter and journalist, Andrew Jefford lives in France; but buried deep in one wine country what does he miss most about the rest?

In this collection of his essays, opinions and articles he shares his fascinating observations from half a century of discovery. For Andrew, wine should be listened to and admired, wherever it comes from; old-school pretensions turned on their head; style-points disdained; stellar prices dismissed; questions asked...

Příroda je velkou galerií malých příběhů. Jde jen o to je objevit. Jsou lidé, kteří za náměty svého psaní o přírodě putují do dalekých zemí, překonávají pouště a pralesy, utkávají se s šelmami, čelí nepřízni počasí a podnebí. Básnířka a spisovatelka Lydie Romanská na to šla jinak. Náměty pro své krátké povídky a fejetony nalezla rovnou za humny - respektive za skleněnými dveřmi svého bytu, vedoucími do malé zahrádky. Až je budete číst, zjistíte, že ten, kdo se umí na přírodu dívat jako tato autorka (a nejen dívat, předkládá je čtenáři vytříbeným jazykem), je ve výhodě: I v tom nejvšednějším prostředí nalézá nové a nové fazety daru, který máme k dispozici – života. Nezadají si se zápletkami příběhů od slavných dramatiků, byť je třeba prožívají „jen“ kosi, zahradní stromy, domácí mazlíčci či mouchy.

Básnířka Lydie Romanská vytvořila v rozmezí let 2019 až 2021 rukopis nové básnické sbírky, kterou nazvala Zpovídat se z poezie. Pokračuje v principu, který je evidentní z jejích posledních knížek, a sice vnímání poezie jako nové skutečnosti, samostatného artefaktu neovlivněného zažitými principy práce s tématem nebo logikou, jak jej vyznával francouzský literární teoretik Henri Bremond a u nás kritik F. X. Šalda nebo básník Vítězslav Nezval. Její básně vycházejí z prožitku vztahů ve světě člověka, přírody a věcí, z jejich konstelací ve fungování i kráse. Text je bohatý na metafory, hýří asociacemi, přesto se jedná o úspor¬nou poezii, kořící se slovu v jeho nových významech daných originálními úhly pohledu. Knížku doplňuje cyklus fotografií Vojtěcha Kemennyho nazvaný Zahrada. Snímky vznikly na přelomu jara a léta roku 2022, jejich předlohou bylo několik míst v Praze: Botanická zahrada Přírodovědecké fakulty Karlovy Univerzity Na Slupi, park na Kampě, Vojanovy sady a louka mezi Šeberovem a Hrnčíři.

Lydie Romanská (*1943) prožívá svůj život tak trochu stranou hlavních cest v prostředí Ostravska, kdysi výrazně dělnickém. Navzdory tomu je básnířkou s intenzivním vztahem k umění, a to nejen slovesnému. V civilním povolání řídí Základní uměleckou školu v Ostravě-Svinově a diriguje dětský pěvecký sbor Cantabo. Do jejího světa neodmyslitelně patří i životní druh, hudební skladatel Dobroslav Lidmila, mj. tvůrce vokálních skladeb na texty své ženy. (Viz fragmenty partitur použité k ilustracím v této knize.) Přestože značná část publikačních aktivit Lydie Romanské je také spojena s Ostravou, rozhodně není autorkou regionální. Náš svazek s názvem Desátek - výbor z deseti tiskem vydaných básnických knih - dokazuje, že její tvorba má místo v kontextu celé české lyriky. Nepostrádá typickou ženskou jemnost a senzitivnost, ale jak poznamenává editor svazku Jiří Urbanec "stále se pokouší pochopit a scelit obraz světa, který je navýsost i ve zdánlivě zastrčených a nevšímaných detailech dramatický..."

Humbert z Romans († 1277), pátý magistr Řádu kazatelů, ve svém okružním listu adresovaném celému řádu rozebírá tři řeholní sliby, poslušnost, chudobu a čistotu, a s nimi spojené ctnosti, pokoru a trpělivost. Jeho cílem je povzbudit bratry v jejich povolání kazatelů Slova a připomenout jim základy řeholního života a dominikánské spirituality. Humbertův pohled je realistický, nepřehlíží lidskou omezenost, slabost a hřích, ani nezastírá náročnost kazatelského povolání. Zároveň je však plný naděje a důvěry, neboť ví, že člověk ve svém úsilí nezůstává bez pomoci a je schopen obstát v síle Boží milosti. Realismus, důvěra v člověka opírající se o důvěru v Boha, střízlivost a prostota, humor a radostnost, to jsou některé z rysů dominikánské spirituality, které vyzařují i z Humbertova dopisu. Následování a hlásání Slova ovšem není vyhrazeno pouze řeholníkům či dominikánům. Je to podstata každého křesťanského života, bez ohledu na dobu a životní stav. Humbertův dopis tak může poskytnout cenné postřehy a rady každému čtenáři, který zaslechl volání Slova, touží žít pro něj a s ním a sdílet ho s ostatními.

In this new contribution to the New Testament Library, renowned New Testament scholar Beverly Roberts Gaventa offers a fresh account of Paul''s Letter to the Romans as an event, both in the sense that it reflects a particular historical moment in Paul''s labors and in the sense that it reflects the event God brings about in the gospel Paul represents. Attention to that dual sense of event means that Gaventa attends to the literary, historical, and theological features of the letter.Throughout the commentary, Gaventa keeps in view central questions of what Paul hoped the letter might accomplish among its listeners in Rome and how his auditors might have heard it when read by Phoebe. In posing potential answers to these questions, Gaventa touches on vital themes such as the intrusion of the gospel of Jesus Christ that prompts Paul to write in the first place, what that event reveals about the situation of all creation, how it relates to both Israel and the Gentiles, and what its implications are for life in faith.The New Testament Library series offers authoritative commentary on every book and major aspect of the New Testament, providing fresh translations based on the best available ancient manuscripts, ...
