Praying the Psalms: Engaging Scripture and the Life of the Spirit book pdf download By Walter Brueggemann

In this thoroughly revised edition of a classic in spirituality, Walter Brueggemann guides the reader into a thoughtful and moving encounter with the Psalms. This new edition includes a revised text, new notes, and new bibliography. “The movement and meeting of God with us is indeed a speech-event in which new humanness is evoked among us. Being attentive to language means cultivating the candid imagination to bring our own experience to the Psalms and permitting it to be disciplined by the speech of the Psalms. And, conversely, it means letting the Psalms address us and having that language reshape our sensitivities and fill our minds with new pictures and images that may redirect our lives” -from Chapter 3

Psalms and Life of Faith book pdf download By Walter Brueggemann

Walter Brueggemann’s unique gift of joining historical-exegetical insights to penetrating observations about the traumas and joys of contemporary life–both personal and social–is here forcefully displayed. Everyone who is familiar with his work knows the power of his speech about “doxological, polemical, political, subversive, evangelical faith: and about the ways such faith is enacted in the praise of ancient Israel and in the church. Readers of this book will find fresh insight into: the Psalms as prayer and praise the categories of the Psalms the social context in which psalms were prayed and sung the theology of the Psalms the dialogical character of the Psalms justice and injustice in the Psalms the study and “use” of the Psalms by the church praise as an act of basic trust and abandonment the impossible wonders of God’s activity that overturn conventional ways of thinking and acting

Reality, Grief, Hope book pdf download By Walter Brueggemann

Walter Brueggemann is one of the most highly regarded Old Testament scholars of our time; talk-show host Krista Tippett has even called him “a kind of theological rock star.” In this new book Brueggemann incisively probes our society-in-crisis from the ground up.

Pointing out striking correlations between the catastrophe of 9/11 and the destruction of ancient Jerusalem, Brueggemann shows how the prophetic biblical response to that crisis was truth-telling in the face of ideology, grief in the face of denial, and hope in the face of despair. He argues that the same prophetic responses are urgently required from us now if we are to escape the deathliness of denial and despair.

Brueggemann’s Reality, Grief, Hope boldly confronts the dominant forces of our time, taking on principalities and powers that vie for our souls, and calls the church to courageous action.

Sabbath as Resistance book pdf download By Walter Brueggemann

In this new edition that includes a study guide, popular author Walter Brueggemann writes that the Sabbath is not simply about keeping rules but rather about becoming a whole person and restoring a whole society. Brueggemann calls out our 24/7 society of consumption, a society in which we live to achieve, accomplish, perform, and possess. We want more, own more, use more, eat more, and drink more. Brueggemann shows readers how keeping the Sabbath allows us to break this restless cycle and focus on what is truly important: God, other people, all life. Perfect for groups or self-reflection, Sabbath as Resistance offers a transformative vision of the wholeness God intends, giving world-weary Christians a glimpse of a more fulfilling and simpler life through Sabbath observance.

Il libro in pillole:
– Il lamento di Geremia per la disintegrazione sociale e religiosa di Israele
– Il dolore di Dio per il tradimento di Israele
– L’incessante fedeltà di Dio al suo popolo

Diversamente dagli approcci correnti a questo libro chiave dell’Antico Testamento, Brueggemann utilizza un’analisi sociologica e letteraria combinata e fornisce una nuova prospettiva sulle questioni teologiche, portando elementi convincenti circa il messaggio e la significatività del testo sia rispetto a quel tumultuoso periodo della storia di Israele sia per i nostri tempi difficili.
«Geremia non persegue un’interpretazione in termini di realpolitik della crisi che porta alla fine del Regno di Giuda, ma una visione alternativa di tali eventi. La tradizione di Geremia procede sulla base di una prospettiva teologica come alternativa a un’analisi politica» Walter Brueggemann.

Walter Brueggemann, docente emerito di Antico Testamento presso il Columbia Theological Seminary di Decatur, in Georgia (USA), è uno dei maggiori esperti di esegesi veterotestamentaria. Tra i suoi libri ricordiamo: Immaginazione profetica: la voce dei profeti nella Bibbia e nella chiesa (EMI, Bologna 2004), Teologia dell’Antico Testamento (Queriniana, Brescia 2002), Introduzione all’Antico Testamento. Il canone e l’immaginazione cristiana (Claudiana, Torino 2005), Pace (Claudiana, Torino 2012), Viaggio verso il bene comune (Claudiana, Torino 2011).

Truth and Hope book pdf download By Walter Brueggemann

In this varied collection of essays, Walter Brueggemann provides a lens into biblical teachings that speak to our present age of fake news, lies, and alternate realities. Compiled and edited by Louis Stulman, professor of religious studies at the University of Findlay, these essays engage a common theme of truth and hope. As Brueggemann writes in the preface, “There is no doubt that the prophetic tradition regularly engages in truth-telling in order to expose social reality as a systemic act of ‘falseness’ that contradicts the purposes of God. The prophetic tradition of Jeremiah, for instance, is preoccupied with truth-telling that exposes ‘falseness.’ … The prophet exposes the deceit of dominant culture.” The prophetic tradition then moves from truth-telling to “hope-telling,” grounding hope both in unmasking corrupt systems, and in the faithfulness of God to bring about a new way. In Brueggemann’s words, “There can be no hope until truth is told.”

Virus as a Summons to Faith: Biblical Reflections in a Time of Loss, Grief, and Uncertainty book pdf download By Walter Brueggemann

Why bother with the interpretive categories of biblical faith when in fact our energy and interest are focused on more immediate matters? The answer is simple and obvious. We linger because, in the midst of our immediate preoccupation with our felt jeopardy and our hope for relief, our imagination does indeed range beyond the immediate to larger, deeper wonderments. Our free-ranging imagination is not finally or fully contained in the immediacy of our stress, anxiety, and jeopardy. Beyond these demanding immediacies, we have a deep sense that our life is not fully contained in the cause-and-effect reasoning of the Enlightenment that seeks to explain and control. There is more than that and other than that to our life in God’s world!

Arthur Walker-Jones presents an Earth-focused reading of the second book of Psalms, focusing upon the many nonhuman animals that appear repeatedly within the text. In the first commentary to explore the implications of the natural and cultural history of animals for the interpretation of Psalms, Walker-Jones moves beyond the standard treatment of animals as mere metaphors for human concerns, or background to human stories.
