Book Description
A verse by verse study of Genesis. This book is the result of an Adult Sunday School Class I led over the course of 30 weeks in 2018. Many eyebrows were raised when I suggested a verse-by-verse study of Genesis, back in the fall of 2017, because of the sheer magnitude of material. Many more smiling faces said "I'll bet that would be good." Many of my class attendees requested copies of my written presentation when they knew they were not going to make a class, or missed the previous week. When I floated the idea of putting the whole works in a book, most of my class and some in other classes said "Yes, please!"

Derrida and Différance

Author: David Wood
Publisher: Northwestern University Press
ISBN: 9780810107861
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 116

Book Description
A Society of the Friends of Difference would have to include Heraclitus, Nietzsche, Saussure, Freud, Adorno, Heidegger, Levinas, Deleuze, and Lyotard among its most prominent members. It is tempting to think of these figures as constituting a distinct philosophical tradition, one which would emphasize dissonance, separation, disparity, plurality, distinction, change, over against those who would continue the search for unity, identity, presence, permanence, foundations, structures, and essences.

Fear and Trembling

Author: Søren Kierkegaard
Publisher: Hackett Publishing
ISBN: 1647921767
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 368

Book Description
"Faithful to the original Danish text and eminently readable, Jech's translation of Fear and Trembling admirably communicates the literary qualities of Kierkegaard's text, as well as his occasional fits of inspiration. Jech displays an unusual sensitivity not only to the literary/linguistic qualities of Kierkegaard’s prose, but also to his (often realized) aspirations to philosophical precision. As presented by Jech, Kierkegaard is not simply a gifted writer and speculative theologian dabbling in philosophy, but a philosopher concerned to limn the optimal role of philosophical reflection, and to do so experimentally, especially with respect to matters of morality and faith. The translation is furthermore supplemented by very helpful explanatory notes that convey Kierkegaard’s own erudition and the multiple influences upon his thinking. The Historical Glossary will become a valuable reference tool for students and scholars of Kierkegaard’s writings. It is likely to play a welcome role in encouraging an improved understanding of what Kierkegaard means when he employs his idiosyncratic categories, allusions, and vocabulary." —Daniel Conway, Professor of Philosophy and Humanities, Texas A&M University

Philosophy's Duty Towards Social Suffering

Author: LIT Verlag
Publisher: LIT Verlag
ISBN: 3643964862
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 212

Book Description
Social suffering commands increasing public attention in the wake of several historical processes that have changed the ways victims are perceived. In making suffering eloquent by rendering it in conceptual form, philosophy runs the risk of muting suffering, thereby neutralizing its ability to mobilize responses. In the experience of suffering philosophy finds a limit it must recognize as its own. Yet only by fulfilling its duty towards suffering - only by having the abolition of suffering as its ultimate goal - can philosophical thinking withstand a tacit complicity with injustice. José A. Zamora. Senior Researcher at the Institute of Philosophy (Spanish Higher Council for Scientific Research - CSIC), Madrid-Spain. Reyes Mate. Emeritus Research Professor at the Institute of Philosophy (Spanish Higher Council for Scientific Research - CSIC), Madrid-Spain.

Bible Character Volume 1

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 226

Book Description
This book came about as a result of a study on Bible characters. Abraham Lincoln said, "Reputation is the shadow. Character is the tree." Our character is much more than just our reputation, and what we try to display for others to see. It is who we are even when no one is watching. Having a Good Character means doing the right thing just because it is right to do. What better way to learn Biblical character principles then from the life of Bible characters, their examples and the right and wrong actions and decisions they made; we can learn from them Biblical truths and traits to apply to our life. We can develop Godly character to use and guide us throughout our life from the examples they have left us in the written record of God's Word.
