  Canon And Mission

  $36.95

  This book’s theme is that the biblical canon, read as a whole or as a “unity of unities,” calls for a mission, and mission emerges from and always has need of the biblical canon for its witness in an to the world. Beeby proposes the Exodus theme as a way of understanding both the canonical unity of the Bible and Christianity’s mission in today’s world – a mission that must include interfaith diaglogue. The canon moves from creation, he writes, and this movement, restoration, and redemption is through a sent (missio) nation, son, and community.

  Hosea : Grace Abounding

  $24.99

  Centering on the “knowledge of God” and the ultimate painful, paradoxical triumph of God’s grace, the book of Hosea is one of ambivalence and redemption. The redemptive message of Hosea is underscored by H. D. Beeby’s canonical and Christological interpretation. Beeby stresses that the true context of the book is much wider than the eighth century B.C.; Hosea must continually be heard against the background of and in response to the reader’s own time. This commentary makes Hosea’s message available today to all who struggle with questions of gospel and culture, contextualization, idolatry, church and state, and interfaith dialogue.
