Every week Schultz will make his picks, and you do the same. See how you rank versus the Big Man, and against the rest of the world too. This season we're tracking your NFL performance so you can brag about it to your friends!
Both teams are coming off very disappointing games. For the Bills, if not for a Ryan Fitzpatrick end zone interception the Bills would have beaten the Patriots for the first time in 10 years in New England. Also, 14 penalties contributed in the big picture as much as that specific play. For Miami, everyone will say they "didn't see that coming" as they lost 37-3 to Tennessee at home. Four key turnovers and an eight-minute drive by the Titans to open the third quarter were the two key reasons for the Dolphins' loss. The last two Thursday games have seen the visiting team win. But not this week, the Bills use the "Ralph" to win by three. Bills cover.
Well after eight straight wins, Atlanta lost one. With seven games left and coming off the bye week, this is it for Arizona. Atlanta should be able to take advantage of two rookie tackles on the Cardinals. Falcons cover 9.5.
This may be too many points. The Cowboys scored three touchdowns in the 4th quarter against Philadelphia last week; a punt return, interception return and a fumble recovery return for a touchdown. I doubt it will happen two weeks in a row. Cowboys win but Cleveland keeps it close.
The Packers have won four in a row and in those four games; Aaron Rodgers has 15 touchdown passes and only one interception. For the Lions, it doesn't get any easier. Thursday, they play Houston. Coming off the bye week, the Packers should be sharp. Green Bay covers.
The Bengals dominated the Giants last week, 31-13. It was their best win of the year and they needed it after losing four in a row. But the Chiefs played Pittsburgh tough, taking them to overtime. KC has given the ball away 29 times this year and something has to change. Bengals win, KC keeps it close.
The 24-24 tie against San Francisco could be a turning point for the Rams. For the Jets, it's the opposite, 28-7 in Seattle. One team is progressing while one team is regressing. Rams cover.
Welcome to the NFL, Nick Foles. The University of Arizona draft pick gets his first start in a tough environment. Both teams are 3-6 and basically have to win every game for the rest of the season to qualify for the playoffs. I'll take Washington to cover, with Robert Griffin playing a great game.
Tampa bay has won three in a row and it could have been five. In the last three wins, they have scored 34, 42 and 36 points. Greg Schiano could be NFL Coach of the Year and Doug Martin could be Rookie of the Year. Bucs cover the 1.
The two teams played each other in Week 2 and Houston easily won, 27-7. I can see the exact same thing happening this week.
This one is easy! The Saints are a team on the rise that could still be a playoff team. The Raiders, in the last two games, have allowed 55 and 42 points. In the 3rd quarter play, they have been outscored 109-31. Saints cover.
Andrew Luck is not there yet but he is getting there. Tom Brady has 18 touchdowns with only three interceptions. Luck has a ratio of 10:9. He is not their yet but he is getting there. Colts keep it close. Colts.
Payton Manning is tied with Dan Marino for third all-time in quarterback wins with 147 and he is second all-time with 420 touchdowns passes. But what's really good is Denver's defense is also playing their best right now. Broncos cover.
Ben Roethlisberger has the best pocket movement of any QB in football. Without him, the game changes to an advantage for the Ravens. I know these games are usually a field goal win or lose, but that is when both teams are healthy and ready. Ravens cover.
Both teams are coming off tough games; the 49ers tying the Rams and the Bears losing to Houston. It is more likely that Alex Smith plays for the 49ers than Jay Cutler for the Bears. It may be close, as both teams are very similar in strengths and attitude, but QB on the road? 49ers cover 4.

Baker Hermeneutics Collection (11 vols.)
by 16 authors Stein, Robert H., Dockery, David S., Carson, D. A., Beale, G. K., Vanhoozer, Kevin J., Bartholomew, Craig G., Treier, Daniel J., Wright, N. T., Goheen, Michael W., Pfeiffer, Charles F., Osborne, Grant R., Woodward, Stephen, Blaising, Craig A., Bock, Darrell L., Woodbridge, John D., Ryken, Leland
Baker, Baker Academic 1979–2008
Today's Bible interpreters—scholars, students, pastors, and laypersons—are faced with a plethora of philosophies and methods for interpreting Scripture. Postmodern trends have emphasized one's community identity in sharing interpretation, leading to wildly different conclusions about how to read the Bible and understand Scripture. In addition, modern biblical interpretation has too often been characterized by a schism between the disciplines of exegesis and theology.
The 11-volume Baker Hermeneutics Collection addresses the central issues related to hermeneutics, interpretation, and exegesis of the Bible, drawing from the wisdom of top evangelical philosophers, theologians, and biblical scholars. Authors such as D. A. Carson, G. K. Beale, and Kevin J. Vanhoozer engage both modern and postmodern critiques of the Bible and confront the growing acceptance of conflicting interpretations. They address cultural and contextual issues, the role of the reader and the community in interpreting Scripture, and both the narrative and social function of the Bible. They also explore the relationships between Scripture, tradition, and reason, along with the various ways Scripture is read and studied—for personal and group devotions, for theological exploration, and for liturgical use. Most importantly, the volumes in the Baker Hermeneutics Collection help individuals and communities read the Bible and understand its meaning.
With the Logos edition you get an abundance of applicable, insightful resources. You can easily research hermeneutics and access an assortment of useful resources and perspectives from a variety of pastors and theologians.
Key Features
- Contains important books and reference guides for biblical hermeneutics
- Offers theological interpretation of individual books of the Bible
- Examines the use of the Bible in the early church
- Gives insights into Old and New Testament books and passages
Individual Titles
- Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament
- Dictionary for Theological Interpretation of the Bible
- A Basic Guide to Interpreting the Bible: Playing by the Rules
- Biblical Interpretation Then and Now: Contemporary Hermeneutics in the Light of the Early Church
- The Drama of Scripture: Finding Our Place in the Biblical Story
Christianity Today 2008 Book Award Winner
Readers of the New Testament often encounter quotes or allusions to the Old Testament that may be unfamiliar or obscure. In this volume, G. K. Beale and D. A. Carson have brought together a distinguished team of scholars to isolate, catalog, and comment on both the obvious Old Testament quotations and the more subtle allusions found in the New Testament. The result is a comprehensive commentary on the Old Testament references that appear from Matthew through Revelation. It is a vital resource for the reference library of every student of the New Testament.

This really is a new sort of commentary! For the first time we are given a continuous exegetical reading of the way each New Testament book quotes, alludes to, and evokes the Old Testament Scriptures. This volume will be an immensely useful resource for all kinds of study of the New Testament.
—Richard Bauckham, professor of New Testament studies and Bishop Wardlaw Professor, St. Mary's College, University of St. Andrews
Finally a volume that surveys the use of the Old Testament in each book of the New Testament. Written by top-tier scholars with unsurpassed expertise in New Testament exegesis, these essays model sound engagement with Scripture that quotes Scripture. This excellent collection is a must-read for all who wish to understand how the New Testament writers understood and used their Bible. This long-awaited volume deserves to become a standard text that will hopefully launch a new stage of fresh work in biblical research.
—Karen H. Jobes, Gerald F. Hawthorne Professor of New Testament Greek and Exegesis, Wheaton College
More than a generation ago, C. H. Dodd and a few other scholars began sowing the seeds of a new and fruitful approach to reading Scripture, by studying the New Testament writers' use of Old Testament texts. The present commentary thus represents the harvest of decades of research into the relationship between the Old and New Testaments. By carefully observing various factors, ranging from the textual to the theological, each contributor shows how the New Testament writers were not only careful readers of the Old Testament but also profound theologians themselves. The scholars on this superb team assembled by Beale and Carson distill many new and remarkable insights for exegesis and theology, all of which serve to demonstrate the explanatory power of this approach for the present and the future. This landmark volume should prove to be an invaluable resource for both the church and the academy—for pastors, teachers, and students alike, whether Protestant or Catholic—and for anyone wanting to go deeper into the heart of sacred Scripture. Indeed, Beale and Carson are to be thanked and congratulated for a momentous accomplishment.
—Scott Hahn, Pope Benedict XVI Chair of Biblical Theology and Liturgical Proclamation, St. Vincent Seminary; professor of scripture and theology, Franciscan University of Steubenville
Every scholar would profit by having a copy of this thorough and judicious work on his or her desk. The authors have collected for us an immense amount of material and insight in a relatively short space, and many of us will be grateful for their efforts. This commentary is a profound witness to the unity of the Testaments in the mystery of Christ.
—Francis Martin, Cardinal Adam Maida Chair of Biblical Studies, Sacred Heart Seminary
Finally we have a work that examines the use of the Old Testament in the New Testament and covers the entirety of the New Testament in a single volume. Pastors, students, and scholars will profit from the careful attention to both the Old and New Testament contexts in which the citations occur, and they will be enriched by the theological depth represented in this important book.
—Thomas R. Schreiner, James Buchanan Harrison Professor of New Testament Interpretation, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
Few areas of New Testament study are as often discussed as the New Testament's use of the Old. There has long been a need for a careful case-by-case treatment, since the use we see in the New Testament is so varied and diverse. This commentary meets that need admirably. It is thorough yet concise, clear yet detailed. All will be led into helpful reflection on this important area of study. Well done to the editors and authors of this useful and unique commentary.
—Darrell L. Bock, research professor of New Testament studies, Dallas Theological Seminary
D. A. Carson (PhD, University of Cambridge) is a research professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He is author and editor of numerous books, including How Long, O Lord? Reflections on Suffering and Evil and The New Bible Commentary.
G. K. Beale (PhD, University of Cambridge) is Kenneth T. Wessner Chair of Biblical Studies and professor of New Testament at Wheaton College Graduate School. He is the author and editor of several books, including The Right Doctrine from the Wrong Texts?, and commentaries on Revelation and 1 and 2 Thessalonians.
Christianity Today 2006 Book Award Winner; Catholic Press Association 2006 Book Award Winner; ECPA 2006 Christian Book of the Year Award Winner
The Dictionary for Theological Interpretation of the Bible is a groundbreaking reference tool that seeks first of all to marry the tasks of exegesis and theology with the goal of theological interpretation of Scripture—that is, interpretation that has recovered a focus on the subject matter of Scripture: the nature and activity of God and the gospel. Second, it aims to provide a guide to understanding various interpretative approaches and a tool for evaluating them in light of this goal.
The dictionary covers a wide range of topics related to biblical interpretation with both depth and clarity. Topics include the theological interpretation of individual books of the Bible, issues of hermeneutics, various biblical interpreters and interpretative communities, and the interplay of interpretation with various doctrines and doctrinal themes. The contributors represent a diverse range of theological backgrounds and interpretative approaches and are experts in their respective fields.
A landmark volume for the church's engagement with Scripture. It will be a basic resource on the role and use of the Bible.
—Christianity Today
In this remarkable dictionary, the Bible is reclaimed as a book of and for the church. I predict that when the history of theology of our time is written what Vanhoozer, Bartholomew, Treier, and Wright have done will be seen as a watershed. In this book theology returns to its source, that is, Scripture.
—Stanley Hauerwas, Gilbert T. Rowe Professor of Theological Ethics, Duke Divinity School
Both the academy and the church have awakened to the need to bring exegesis and theology back into relationship with one another. This dictionary, partly because it covers such a wide range of topics, provides a useful resource for those engaged in learning how to read the Bible, with all its historical particularity, as a word from God to his people of this generation.
—Douglas Moo, Blanchard Professor of New Testament, Wheaton College
This dictionary will be an exceedingly useful addition to the library of every Christian, professional and lay, who wants to learn skills for reading the Bible more insightfully. Scholarly yet accessible, historically grounded yet forming us for the future, broadly global in perspective yet enabling readers to see the theological implications of biblical books and study methods for their own lives and their communities, the articles gathered here equip us all to know the triune God more thoroughly and to offer Christian alternatives to our world more gracefully and purposefully. This is an outstanding resource presented by many of my favorite teachers.
—Marva J. Dawn, teaching fellow in spiritual theology, Regent College
Kevin J. Vanhoozer (PhD, University of Cambridge) is a research professor of systematic theology at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois. He is the author and editor of many books, including Is There a Meaning in This Text? and Everyday Theology: How to Read Cultural Texts and Interpret Trends.
No one can read the Bible for long before wondering what the Bible means and who or what determines that meaning. Moreover, no on can read the Bible without possessing some purpose in reading.
This book, in practical and nontechnical terms, guides readers in discovering what the goal of reading the Bible should be and how they can achieve this goal for themselves. The author promises that they will acquire "an interpretive framework that will help them understand better the meaning of biblical texts and how to apply that meaning to their own life situation."
Along the way, readers learn what is at stake in such issues as inspiration, inerrancy, continuing revelation, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Their study will be facilitated by exercises and discussion questions, as well as a comprehensive glossary.
The treatment is devout, sane, and well informed…The book will give light to those who are troubled at most of the passages discussed.
—John Wenham, Christian Arena
The quality of this study is academically high. The study of this little book will profit almost any mature Christian.
—L. Russ Bush, Southwestern Journal of Theology
Anyone who has tried to provide sanity and order to the hermeneutical montage that surfaces during home Bible studies will welcome this eminently readable book by Robert Stein. He writes for those new to the field of biblical interpretation, avoiding wherever possible technical terms and jargon, and clearly defining his terms when such language is unavoidable…What the reader will find helpful, especially when using this book for teaching purposes, is its numerous scriptural examples, timely illustrations and clarifying schematics. Teacher and student are served by the discussion questions at the end of each chapter…Stein has given us a most illuminating and helpful tool for guiding students of the Bible to a clear path leading to a more accurate interpretation and application of the Scriptures.
—James D. Hernando, Encounter Journal
Robert H. Stein (PhD, Princeton Theological Seminary) was most recently a senior professor of New Testament interpretation at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. He previously taught at Bethel Seminary. A world-renowned scholar of the Synoptic Gospels, Stein has published several books, including Luke, A Basic Guide to Interpreting the Bible, Studying the Synoptic Gospels, and Jesus the Messiah.
Biblical Interpretation Then and Now examines the use of the Bible in the early church and relates apostolic and patristic interpretation to contemporary trends in hermeneutics. Dockery traces the developments in early Christian interpretation, noting both continuities and discontinuities. His study begins with Jesus, and observes the developments in interpretation to the time of the historic Council of Chalcedon, noting the philosophy, theology, and traditions which influenced each period.
Provides readers with a generally able and well documented survey of patristic biblical interpretation and a significant discussion of the potential importance of earlier patterns of interpretation to contemporary hermeneutical discussion.
—Richard A. Muller, P. J. Zondervan Professor, Calvin Theological Seminary
Those seeking a general introduction to patristic hermeneutics will be grateful once again for this book's availability.
—Amos Yong, J. Rodman Williams Professor of Theology, Regent University School of Divinity, Virginia Beach, Virginia
A useful survey for beginning students: the writing is clear, the overall appraisal of the period follows generally accepted lines, and the attention to contemporary concerns can help the reader approach the topic with a valuable perspective.
—Moisés Silva, Westminster Theological Journal
A well-documented, readable, and welcome addition to one's theological library.

David S. Dockery is the president of Union University in Jackson, Tenn. Formerly a professor of New Testament at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, he is the author and editor of over 10 books, including Interpreting the New Testament, Theologians of the Baptist Tradition, and the Holman Concise Bible Commentary.
In The Drama of Scripture, Craig Bartholomew and Michael Goheen provide an engaging overview of the story line and theology of the Bible. As the authors suggest in their introduction, it is only as we read and appropriate the Bible "as our story" that we fully understand it and allow it to have authority over us. As we enter into the story of the Bible, we find God revealed there and are called to participate in his continuing activity. The biblical story, then, is foundational to Christian thinking and living.
Working from this perspective, the authors survey the story in Scripture. Their work is part introduction, part commentary, part theology, and thoroughly engaging. They suggest two over-arching themes running throughout the story—"covenant" in the Old Testament and "the kingdom of God" in the New Testament. These two themes effectively summarize the activity of God throughout human history. They are ways of looking at the story in order to gain an understanding of God's purposes and to let them claim us.
Bartholomew and Goheen work their way through the Bible as a drama with six acts—creation, sin, Israel, Jesus, mission, and new creation. Their study provides an introduction to the Bible and a commentary on important passages, but it is more than that. It is also a theological reflection on the ongoing story and a call for participation in God's grand narrative. It will be a useful work for students who study Scripture and a helpful resource for pastors and teachers looking for assistance in developing a compelling presentation of the biblical story.
Much recent scholarship has emphasized the narrative quality of Scripture. This book takes that insight and brings it to life, enabling even the beginner to grasp the sense of Scripture as a single great story—a drama in which we are all invited to play a part. I am delighted to see solid scholarship made easily accessible in this splendid fashion.
—N. T. Wright, research professor of systematic theology, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Deerfield, Illinois
Bartholomew and Goheen have produced a volume that will help inexperienced readers of the Bible get a view of the big picture before moving into more atomistic treatments of the Bible. It will serve well in introductory level Bible courses and may serve equally well in basic courses in hermeneutics. Its easy, nontechnical language will make it a popular text with such students.
—Jeffrey S. Lamp, Review of Biblical Literature
Here is a book whose time has come. Bartholomew and Goheen have produced a brief, accessible presentation of the entire biblical story that highlights both the unity of Scripture and its profound cultural relevance today. For readers who think of the Bible as a succession of unrelated devotional fragments geared primarily toward individual morality and spirituality, this book will come as a salutary shock, a reminder that the Christ-centered canonical Scriptures constitute a coherent Word of God that challenges the underlying religious direction of Western civilization. Based on deep and wide scholarship, but engagingly written for a broad audience, The Drama of Scripture promises to be an indispensable tool for the many Christians who have been awakened to God's call for serious cultural engagement, in the name of Christ, with a post-Christian world in thrall to the idols of both modernism and postmodernism.

He is the author of Reading Ecclesiastes, coauthor of Living at the Crossroads, and coeditor of a number of volumes, including the award-winning Dictionary for Theological Interpretation of Scripture. He is also a priest in the Church of England.

He is also the minister of preaching at New Westminster Christian Reformed Church. He is the author of As the Father Has Sent Me, I Am Sending You.
In the wake of the schism during the past two centuries between biblical studies and theology, a new movement has developed, seeking to bridge this modern gap. This hermeneutical movement, which hearkens back to aspects of pre-critical interpretation, has been labeled the theological interpretation of Scripture (TIS) and focuses on the contexts of canon, creed, and church. While the trend is in its infancy, it is rapidly gaining momentum.
Introducing Theological Interpretation of Scripture is the first clear, systematic introduction to this movement for students and non-specialist scholars. The book surveys the history, themes, advocates, and positions of TIS and seeks to bring coherence to its various elements. The author, Daniel Treier, also explores what he sees as the greatest challenges the movement will have to address in the future, including the interface between TIS and biblical theology, general hermeneutics, and the concept of social location in reading scriptural texts. Woven throughout is a case study on the imago Dei, demonstrating how TIS plays out in theological exegesis. This case study adds to the book's usefulness as a secondary text in hermeneutics courses.
This is an introduction in the best sense of that term. With uncommon clarity and grace, Treier provides students of theological interpretation with a reliable and appropriately critical map of the terrain. Because Treier is both generous in his treatment of others' work and thoughtful in presenting his own views, students will find him an enlightening and wise guide.
—Stephen Fowl, professor of theology, Loyola College, Maryland
With an impressive mastery of the secondary literature of this new field, Treier shows how the disciplines of historical, systematic, and practical theology play into theological interpretation of Scripture. Treier suggests, like many in this new movement, that a recovery of ancient Christian practices and postures toward Holy Scripture opens the theological imagination and allows for fresh readings, informed by historical criticisms but not captured by them.
—Kathryn Greene-McCreight, associate priest, St. John's Episcopal Church, New Haven, CT
Many voices today clamor for the recovery of theological interpretation, from many corners and for diverse reasons. For those concerned with the significance of the church for reading Scripture, and the significance of Scripture for the church, this is a renaissance most welcome. So many different voices, though, can leave us confused—not only on the finer points of the discussion, but even about its most basic question: What is theological interpretation? We need a map, and this is precisely what Daniel Treier has provided: a map that will be as useful to those already engaged in the conversation as it is crucial for those trying to gain their first bearings.
—Joel B. Green, professor of New Testament interpretation, Fuller Theological Seminary
Daniel Treier is one of the brightest scholars working at the intersection of Scripture, hermeneutics, and theology in the evangelical academy today. Here he offers a masterful survey of the landscape and shows how evangelicals can join with Catholic scholars and others in moving the discussion forward.

Daniel J. Treier (PhD, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) is an associate professor of theology at Wheaton College. He is the author of Virtue and the Voice of God: Toward Theology as Wisdom and the coeditor of several books, including The Cambridge Companion to Evangelical Theology and the award-winning Dictionary for Theological Interpretation of the Bible.
"Dispensationalism" may not be a household term, but it designates one of the most widespread and influential traditions in evangelical theology today. This book explains a significant change presently taking place in dispensational interpretations of Scripture. This change affects the way dispensationalists understand key biblical themes such as the kingdom of God, the church in God's redemptive program, the interrelationship of the biblical covenants, the historical and prophetic fulfillment of those covenants, and the role of Christ in that fulfillment.
A new breed of thinkers is emerging within dispensationalism. As representatives of the new generation, Blaising and Bock provide a thoughtful presentation of progressive dispensationalism. Both dispensationalists and covenantalists will be challenged by their rethinking of biblical theology.
This book will bring the reader up-to-date on progressive dispensationalism, a significant current topic of theological discussion in evangelical circles. Progressive Dispensationalism is a handy summary of where the movement it describes fits on the dispensational map and how it got there. Some readers will not agree with everything in this book, but they will all be forced to acknowledge that dispensationalists are willing to subject their system to the scrutiny of Scripture.
—Donald K. Campbell, president, Dallas Theological Seminary
Blaising and Bock have produced the most important advance in dispensationalist theology since Charles Ryrie's Dispensationalism Today nearly 30 years ago. Progressive dispensationalism has now positioned its movement within the mainstream of biblical scholarship, as it offers a defensible exegesis of each of the Scriptures it treats.
—Craig L. Blomberg, distinguished professor of New Testament, Denver Seminary
As I read Progressive Dispensationalism the television commercial kept echoing in my ears, 'This isn't your father's Oldsmobile.' The dispensationalism of Bock and Blaising is not the dispensationalism of Darby, Scofield, or even Ryrie, but it is dispensationalism. The authors are not covenant theologians in sheep's clothing. Bock and Blaising have chosen the most difficult path…They are pursuing significant change within their own tradition…Any non-dispensationalists who want to say, 'dispensationalists believe…' should read this book before they speak. This is an Oldsmobile, but not like your father's.
—Allen Mawhinney, Reformed Theological Seminary
Craig A. Blaising (ThD, Dallas Theological Seminary) is the associate vice president for doctoral studies at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.
Darrell L. Bock (PhD, University of Aberdeen) is a research professor of New Testament studies at Dallas Theological Seminary. He is the author or editor of many books, including the two-volume commentary on Luke, Jesus According to Scripture, and Studying the Historical Jesus.
In what sense is the Bible the Word of God for Christians today? How should we think of the truthfulness of the Bible?
Scripture and Truth seeks to answer these key questions. It synthesizes, as have few other works, the apologetic reasons for an evangelical defense of biblical inerrancy. From a biblical, historical, or theological perspective each essay examines a challenge to belief in the integrity and reliability of Scripture. What emerges from these essays is a full-orbed restatement of this evangelical doctrine.
First published in 1983, Scripture and Truth will continue to strengthen the faith of many of God's people in his reliable and truthful Word.
Here is a book which is more than a mere defense of biblical inerrancy; it seeks also to explore the implications of such a view of the way in which we approach and handle Scripture.

Leland Ryken's comprehensive and insightful surveys on the Bible as literature, Words of Delight and Words of Life, have now been combined in this one-volume edition. In this introduction to Scripture, the author offers a volume brimming over with wonderful insights into Old and New Testament books and passages—insights that have escaped most traditional commentators. Those who study, preach, or teach the Scriptures will add this book to the inner circle of reference works always kept within reach.
…We often tend to focus on the doctrinal content of the Bible at the expense of its emotional impact…Ryken emphasizes that the Bible does not appear as a theological outline with proof texts attached, but as stories, visions, poems, and letters.
—John F. Brug, professor of systematic theology and Old Testament, Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary.
…Set forth in simple, straightforward, precise…language…Teaching and preaching the Bible as God's Word in man's language can become more colorful, insightful, and challenging when done in the light of what Ryken has done here.
—Peter Y. DeJong, former professor of pastoral theology, Calvin Theological Seminary
Leland Ryken is a professor of English at Wheaton College, and author of numerous books, including How to Read the Bible as Literature and The Word of God in English.
This volume is one of the most complete guidebooks for Bible study available. Any Christian interested in in-depth exploration of the Scriptures will discover through this book what true Bible study involves.
The first half of Handbook for Bible Study is a detailed, holistic presentation of the inductive and deductive approaches to Bible study, applied comprehensively to laymen, students, and pastors. The second half, graded to various levels, discusses the use of tools for Bible study and stresses the value of commentaries and other aids.
Handbook for Bible Study goes beyond Bible study books which leave the impression that Bible study is little more than personal interaction with the text. Handbook for Bible Study includes methods and tools for fruitful Bible study. It is of equal value for personal use by laymen or for textbook use in college and seminary courses on Bible study methods.

The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Bible is designed to show the importance of one of the most significant archaeological discoveries of the 20th century and its wide-ranging impact on biblical studies and biblical archaeology. This volume also includes an introduction to the scholarly issues, and the role of archaeology in general and the Dead Sea Scrolls in particular on the modern interpretation of the Bible.
An excellent survey of the Dead Sea Scrolls from the standpoint of text and theology that will serve as an introduction for those who are unacquainted with the Scrolls and as a summary for those who have had some contact with them. Pfeiffer demonstrates a thorough awareness of the tremendous literature concerning the Scrolls that has arisen since 1947.

My order arrived via USPO much quicker than expected. I've purchased the same glasses before and have been pleased with the price, quality and style. I would recommend them based upon my experience
Glasses are good looking and ccceptable with the exception of the frame arms. These are very thin and bend easily (as in distort). They were bent when they arrived but didn't take much to bend them back.
After new lenses, I now need the clear top part of the glasses and a little help when looking down to read. These work well and look nice.
I bought these thinking I wouldn't need to fill my bifocal prescription. I had previously worn no line bifocal rx glasses and when my prescription changed i tried to switch to contacts. I spent a lot of money on contacts but they didn't work well for me. instead of buying prescription eye glasses I ordered these in a strength that works in just reading glasses and bifocal sunglass readers i bought. Unfortunally even though I love the lightness and design of these glasses the lines throw me off. I can't wear them even in my kitchen. I am so used to the progressive lenses that i can't adjust to moving my head to see through these. i think because the viewing area is so small? I have sunglasses that are bifocal readers and I adjusted fine to them, but they are bigger. I didn't spend a lot so it was a lesson learned. I would say that the design and quality of these seem great!
Great value for the money. The lens size was smaller than I expected, but I should have read the measurement. But, I would have ordered them anyhow. Light, quality, attractive. What more can One ask..

The Transportation Security Agency has prohibited Verified Identity Pass Inc., the operator of the Clear Registered Traveler program, from enrolling new RT customers after a computer laptop containing the unencrypted personal information of 33,000 RT enrollees went missing last month. The Registered Traveler program allows air travelers to complete background checks so that they can use expedited security lanes at airports.
While the laptop has since been found, Verified's suspension continues while the TSA investigates the circumstances behind the disappearance of the laptop, which was taken from a locked office at San Francisco International Airport.
"We're glad to confirm that a preliminary investigation shows no personal information was compromised," said Verified Identity Pass CEO Steven Brill in a statement. Brill went on to say it appears the laptop was not accessed from the time it went missing until it was found last week. The laptop has been handed over to TSA for forensic examination.
In addition to suspending enrollment, TSA has ordered Verified to stop using any unencrypted computers and to secure those computers until encryption software can be installed. Verified is also required to submit to an independent audit to ensure those security measures have been put into place. According to TSA, once it has determined that Verified is in compliance with those security requirements, it will be allowed to continue enrolling customers.
Current Clear customers will not be affected by the enrollment suspension, and fast-lane service at participating airports has continued without disruption.

Over at Swampland, Karen Tumulty distinguishes a "filibuster-proof majority," which is what FDR had, from a Senate where one party or another controlled a theoretically filibuster-proof number of seats, which is what Carter had. Specter's defection, she suggests, is akin to FDR's situation rather than Carter's.
The Financial Times has a good story today on a new twist in the mortgage market. Namely, banks have stopped offering mortgages in buildings that haven't already sold a sufficient quantity of units. In one case, a buyer with "stellar credit" and a 25 percent downpayment couldn't get a mortgage because the luxury development she wanted had only sold three of 46 units.
Kathleen Sebelius is expected to win a fairly easy confirmation today. Some Senators have spoken of delay, but few suggest there's any hope of marshaling a consequential number of "no" votes. And so we will have our Secretary of Health and Human Services. Max Baucus's glowing statement follows the jump:
The Washington Post confirms:
Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter will switch his party affiliation from Republican to Democrat, according to sources informed on the decision.
Thought the first: They blew through $100 million? Buh-buh-buh-buh-how? The magazine wasn't printed on gold leaf. It wasn't staffed by robots from the future. It didn't have a Mars bureau. My working assumption has been that the budget meetings went something like this:
Swine flu is obviously a bad thing. But it's a bad thing with outrageously bad timing. Mexico, in particular, was in economic trouble before. The situation is dire now. The sort of policies you implement to quarantine a disease are the reverse of the sort of policies you implement to grow an economy. One requires an acceleration of transactions. The other requires a cessation of them.
Fareed Zakaria interviews Energy Secretary Steven Chu, who turns out to be a total downer:
Can we really prevent global warming? Or should we be thinking more about adaptation? Building coastal fortifications may be cheaper than halting the release of CO2.
This is all getting a little silly. From Dave Weigel's article on the efforts of pro-life Kansans to derail Kathleen Sebelius's nomination:
According to [David Gittrich, the long-serving state development director of Kansans for Life.], when Brownback turns his sights on the governor's race he'll gave to "reestablish his credentials as a pro-lifer" and explain his vote. "All the pro-life votes in the world don't make up for supporting Kathleen Sebelius," said Gittrich. "This is like saying, 'I'm against the Holocaust and Nazi Germany but I'd like Hitler to be in charge of the health care center.'"
I don't mean to be churlish about this, because the intellectual history in Frank Foer and Noam Scheiber's "Nudge-ocracy" is really quite good. But enough with the attempts to tie Obama to behavioral economics. The apparent influence of the nascent field on the actual policy proposals emerging from the administration is minimal.
• The First 100 Days...Of the McCain Administration?
• Was Tim Geithner a radical nationalizer?
• Shortage of doctors proves obstacle to Obama's goal.
• Republican spending cuts: An eerily prescient indicator of natural disaster?
I'm loathe to describe Larry Summers' in terms that suggest a shy and retiring personality, but it is the case that we've heard a lot less from him than from folks like, say, Tim Geithner. Last Friday, however, he gave a talk to the InterAmerican Development Bank outlining his take on the financial crisis (and he did it, as he said, in "the language of economics"). Simon Johnson summarizes.
Almost nowhere else is there such a tight link between class and opinions about cutting government.
For the GOP, there's no real benefit in admitting Obamacare is working.
Liberals are exasperated with conservatives' unwillingness to acknowledge fact about health care, and other things. But they'd better get used to it.
Two vacant slots offer progressives the opportunity to ensure the Board finally cracks down on Wall Street.

The primary responsibility of the Safety and Security Department is to ensure the safety and security of the students, faculty, staff and visitors of the University.
Pace University provides a 24 hours a day, 365 day per year security presence on each campus. There is a supervisor on duty at all times in addition to fixed and patrol assignments. All uniformed security personnel receive mandatory pre-employment training in accordance with state laws. They also receive additional in-service training on a monthly basis. Security officers respond to an array of situations during their tour of duty. These may include, but are not limited to, medical emergencies, fire or intrusion alarms and service calls. Security officers also prepare incident reports and refer matters to other Pace departments or outside agencies, as necessary.
While Pace University safety and security personnel strive to create and maintain a safe campus environment, we need your help. All students, faculty, staff and visitors must assume primary responsibility for their personal safety and the security of their personal belongings. Precautionary measures are the key. Students walking at night are encouraged to travel in groups and on lighted walkways. If this is not possible, security will provide an escort upon request between any two points on campus. Residence hall room doors should be locked at all times when the room is unoccupied. All access doors to the residence halls should not be propped open, and unknown persons should never be allowed into the residence halls unannounced. Any individuals who do not appear to belong in the residence hall, parking lots or any campus location should be reported to campus security immediately.
In order to better protect the University community, upon entering the building on the New York campus and White Plains Graduate Center, the Pace University ID card must be displayed to the security officer. Temporary ID's will be issued to those individuals who do not have their ID cards or persons exhibiting a valid reason to enter the building.
Consistent with legal requirements, members of the Pace community will be advised on a timely basis regarding the occurrence of crimes on campus.
Special security notices are prepared in the event that a crime is committed on campus and are distributed to the community. These notices provide the facts related to the incident and alert members of our community to prevent future incidents from occurring. Incidents can be reported to campus security by dialing:
- New York (212) 346-1800

Pace University is concerned about the safety and wellbeing of the members of its community and recognizes the seriousness of the physical and psychological impact of sexual assault. Rape is a deliberate assault on a person's emotional and physical integrity. It is a sexual act that occurs without one's consent. It is one of the most frequently committed violent crimes in the United States and the most underreported. If you are sexually assaulted:
- Don't wash, change clothes, or douche before calling or going for help.
- Do not touch any evidence of struggle even if the assault took place in your room.
- Go to a safe place. Ask a friend to stay with you.
- Call the Pace Security Department 24 hours a day. With your permission, the security officer will contact the local police department and a counseling staff member.
- Get immediate medical treatment.
- If you suspect or see a fire, leave the building by exit stairways and doors. If possible close all doors behind you and pull the fire alarm on your way out. Never use the elevator.
- Once you are out of the building, report the fire to security and the location of individuals with disabilities or others needing assistance.
- Check doors and metal knobs to see if they are hot. If they are, do not open the door. Use a wet shirt or towel to cover the crack at the base of the door to prevent smoke penetration. Seal the room as best you can.
- If you are trapped, go to the window to signal for help.
- If there is a phone, call campus security and report your location.
- Individuals with disabilities should look for areas of refuge like stairwells with fire doors.
- Depending on the location of the fire and amount of smoke and heat, it may be safer to stay in your room. Ask for assistance if needed. Let someone know where you are and that you need assistance. If you are in a stairwell, close the door to the hall and ask others exiting to assist you or send back rescue personnel.

Letter: Local businesses back the efforts of MCST students
Dear Editor,
I am always touched, but never surprised, by the generosity of our local small businesses. I am speaking, in particular, about the "mom and pop" shops that not only serve our community, but also often go above and beyond to support area schools and charities.
Friday, Jan. 11, was a perfect example of that. The Morris County School of Technology high school drama club hosted a fundraising event to raise money for their first school musical in three years. Thanks to the talents of the students, themselves, and the kindness of local business owners, the club's Coffee House Cabaret attracted nearly 100 guests and raised more than $2,300.
The event showcased the students, singing Broadway classics that included numbers from "Les Miserables," "Next to Normal," "Evita," "Spring Awakening" and "Once Upon a Mattress," the musical they will perform in this spring.
Also showcased at the event were a variety of baked goods donated by nine area bakeries. There were gourmet cakes, cupcakes and cookies, crumb buns, and scones with lemon curd and jam, as well as fresh brewed coffee and tea. Parents and other guests listened to the performers, while munching on what seemed to be unlimited goodies – it was quite a treat!
But for this parent, who had assisted the club by soliciting the food donations, the "treat" was experienced well before the event began. What I encountered, when I asked our local businesses for help was eager willingness, extraordinary generosity, and delight in supporting our students' goals.
What made this experience even more special was that these businesses had agreed to help us, not just once – but twice, as our event had to be rescheduled due to Hurricane Sandy. In fact, many had realized losses of inventory and other damage from the storm, and yet each one of them cheerfully agreed to proceed with their donations.
The students were so touched by this, that they decided to "pay it forward" by contributing a portion of the money they raised to help victims of Hurricane Sandy. What a life lesson for these young people!
In closing, I would like to mention each of the businesses that helped our students to grow, both as performing artists and as citizens. And I ask your readers to consider the important role that mom and pop shops play in our community: Anthony & Sons of Denville; Ava's Cupcakes of Rockaway; Many Layers; Mara's Café and Bakery of Denville; Sally Lunn's Tea Shop and Restaurant of Chester; SmartWorld Coffee of Denville; Sugar Mommy Cupcakes of Denville; Swiss Chalet Bakery of Morristown, Viking Bakery of Denville; and Woodland Bakery of Chatham; and special thanks to A&P and Foodtown of Denville for donating the non-bakery items.

Beginning with 2nd Summer Session 2010, all grades are to be submitted online to the Registrar's Office. Ball State Information Technology provides two easy ways of accomplishing this task for our faculty.
If you keep track of student grades throughout the semester using Web Gradebook, use the Final Grades option in the Miscellaneous menu to adjust, if necessary, and submit grades.
If you use Blackboard's Grade Center to keep track of grades throughout the semester, use the BSU: Submit Grades to Registrar building block available in the Tools section of the Control Panel within your course site.
If you use neither Web Gradebook nor Blackboard to keep track of grades, then we recommend using Web Gradebook to submit them.
Additional information, how-to handouts, and tech clips can be found in HelpDesk.
Face-to-face training sessions are also available. Go to the Technology Training calendar for schedules and registration.
If you have questions and/or concerns, please contact Yasemin Tunc at 285-5902 or Hamid Tabariasl at 285-1844.

Should we all pay more taxes?
Would it be wrong to expect the middle class to pay higher taxes to help reduce the federal debt?
If I had a dollar for each time I've heard someone say that we're burdening our kids and grandkids with a huge federal debt -- Rick Santelli's recent rant about "all kids left behind" should count for a lot -- I'd happily give that money to the U.S. Treasury.
I'd be in good company. Last year righteous Americans donated a record $7.7 million -- over and above their tax bills -- to cut the nation's debt, CNN says.
It could use some help. With the federal debt at $16.4 trillion, the Congress has racked up a big stack of IOUs, which means we all owe this. You may disagree about how essential it is to reduce this large amount immediately, but we can all agree that the interest on the debt -- $220 billion in 2012, says U.S. News & World Report -- could be better spent elsewhere.
For whatever reason -- lack of political will is at or near the top of the list -- the president and Congress decided as part of the so-called fiscal cliff pact to raise income and investment taxes only on those making more than $400,000. (I'm not counting the 2% increase for payroll taxes for Social Security, which nearly every worker will pay. It was generally understood that the payroll tax holiday was a temporary stimulus measure that would end.)
Now President Barack Obama is talking about closing tax loopholes that favor the wealthy, as the next phony crisis -- votes on raising the debt ceiling and automatic and drastic spending cuts put off by the fiscal cliff deal -- approaches. Others believe the solution should be drastically shrinking the size of government.
Now, if you read personal finance blogs, you know that reduced spending is only part of the solution for restoring fiscal sanity in a household overwhelmed by debt. The other half is raising revenue. And that's where all the rest of us come in. Wouldn't a modest tax increase on the middle class -- not just the wealthy -- help the country? Surely more households could be taxed a little more without triggering another recession.
The idea surfaces from time to time but is hardly heard above the din of so many complaining about their tax burden.
"But in fact, most Americans in 2010 paid far less in total taxes -- federal, state and local -- than they would have paid 30 years ago," reported The New York Times in late November. "According to an analysis by (the Times), the combination of all income taxes, sales taxes and property taxes took a smaller share of their income than it took from households with the same inflation-adjusted income in 1980."
Since 1980, state and local taxes increased while federal income tax rates declined. If it doesn't feel that way to some old-timers, there's a reason. Adds The Times, "The average American in 2010 paid 30% more of income in payroll taxes (for Social Security and Medicare) than in 1980, even while paying 27% less in federal income taxes."
The Times says that those making more than $200,000 a year were the biggest beneficiaries of federal tax cuts over the years. But others with lower incomes also gained, so isn't it fair that more of us should pony up now?
Among those who agree are:
- New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who suggested in 2011 that the Bush tax cuts be allowed to expire across the board.
- Former U.S. Senator (and NBA star) Bill Bradley, who said last summer on CNN, "The deficit is one problem (we face) -- and that requires taxes on a lot of people, not just the wealthy."
- Wrote David Callahan, a senior fellow at Demos, at the end of November:
"Only 13% of voters earlier this month agreed that income taxes should go up for everyone, according to exit polls. And only 33% agreed that taxes should be raised to help tackle the deficit.
"Now, it would be one thing if all these Americans against higher taxes also wanted to see spending cuts. But, of course, that is not the case."
He proposed that all the Bush tax cuts be allowed to lapse on Dec. 31. Then Congress could vote to extend them for other than the rich only long enough to get through the economic recovery.
If the Bush tax cuts had been allowed to expire for everyone, that would have raised federal revenue by $4 trillion over 10 years. The last federal budget was $3.7 trillion, with a deficit of $1.1 trillion. Letting the Bush tax cuts die would have helped fill the gap that's now being paid for with borrowed money.
What do you think? Should middle-class taxpayers share more of the tax burden -- now or in the future, once the economy is more robust? Why shouldn't they be asked to pay a little more? I'm reminded of a comment I once read about how paying taxes used to be considered a duty, a responsibility -- a privilege, in fact.
More on MSN Money:
Why shouldn't we be asked to pay a litle more? Simple answer, the federal gov't isn't responsible witrh what we give them already why would they be with more money/ absolutely not! If congress wouldn't agree to funding wars and bailing out greedy bankers we wouldn't be in this mess. The gov't spending is the problem, let them pay more! This is BS, just a story to make us feel guilty so we'll agree to give you greedy s.o.b.s more money, shame on you!!
Our politicians never ever seem to get around to cutting the wasteful and unnecessary spending after taxes are increased. Its always been this way and will probably never change. Politicians, for the most part, are whores and liars. And, that's a compliment.
Everyone is paying more taxes; although we were assured that there would not be a tax increase on the middle class. Anyone who received a paycheck after the first of the year will notice a tax increase. I don't know about everyone else but one hundred dollars a month is an increase to me, I feel for families who have children to feed. The unfortunate thing is the dishonesty of the president he has proven time after time that you cannot count on his word. When will the people in our government understand that honesty is the best policy? He will say whatever he is required to get what he wants, and has proven time and time again that he is dishonest and lack integrity.
Wouldn't be bad if thats the reason everybody is paying more taxes...
But thats NOT The Reason..
Taxes are going UP for Everybody, rich and poor...so oblamo can spend More money...
One of the things oblamo is good at..is SPENDING TAXPAYERS MONEY..
The guy hasn't passed a budget for the last 4 years..?
