RT Book T1 Joshua T2 Smyth & Helwys bible commentary JF Smyth & Helwys bible commentary A1 Sharp, Carolyn J. 1963- LA English PP Macon, GA PB Smyth & Helwys Publishing YR 2019 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1751582388 AB "The book of Joshua is rich, brimming with dramatic irony, heart-pounding conflict, and luminous stories of miracles. But Joshua presents serious challenges for theological ethics, giving us a deity who demands militarized appropriation of indigenous territory and extermination of Canaanite noncombatants. In this commentary, Carolyn Sharp explores archaeological, literary, theological, and ethical dimensions of Joshua in depth. Sharp honors indigeneity on every page of her commentary, supplying postcolonial epigraphs, quotations of ancient Canaanite voices, and twenty-nine sidebars with insights from Native Studies. Dozens of side- bars offer suggestions for the Christian preacher. This volume is essential for those seeking to engage fruitfully with violent traditions in Scripture."-- OP 426 NO Includes bibliographical references (pages 401-405) and indexes NO Parallel als CD-ROM-Ausg. erschienen CN BS1295.53 SN 1-64173-166-4 SN 978-1-64173-233-8 SN 1-64173-233-4 SN 978-1-64173-166-9 K1 Bible : Joshua : Commentaries K1 Bible K1 Commentaries
