Abstract:
The dissertation seeks to offer a theological interpretation of Proverbs which simultaneously does justice to the results of historical and philological research; to the Christian theological tradition; and to the context of contemporary secular society. The opening chapter will investigate the history of Proverbs’ theological interpretation in the last two hundred years. For 19th century interpretation a major theological and ethical challenge was that Proverbs bases its motivational system on the reader’s self-interest. The same phenomenon has not been considered problematic in more recent s

Abstract:
This thesis attempts to take seriously the claims made by many postapocalyptic zombie narratives to represent the world as it truly is, analyzing and then assessing the theological value of their depictions of the human predicament. The approach is both formal and what Gary Wolfe calls transmedial, examining the recurring narrative structures and themes of texts across several media and eras as part of 'a popular aesthetic movement and not just a body of works of fiction on similar themes', with special attention given to the films and television of the new millennium.

Abstract:
The English poetry of George Herbert (1593-1633) is a representation of the authority of God in salvation. As the initiation, power, and continuance in the salvation process is entirely God’s, so Herbert’s literary authority does not derive from the past, or from himself, but from God. As Herbert, and his speakers, are written upon, so do they write and speak. Herbert therefore gives a theological meaning to the humanistic terms and concepts of the English literary renaissance.

Abstract:
This thesis aims to explore sensory engagements with material objects. In other words, it investigates the physical encounter between a person and a thing, particularly through a focus on the sense of touch. It does so within the art gallery context. It looks at the capacity of such embodied practices to inspire creative response to objects, an approach which, the thesis argues, does not necessarily rely on knowing contextual information or fact, but rather allows for responses including imagining and making.

Abstract:
In this dissertation, I engage a variety of contexts in reading Exodus 3:13–15. The trend in late-nineteenth and twentieth-century Old Testament scholarship was to oppose the meaning of the Hebrew text with later Christian interpretations, which built on Greek and Latin translations. According to this view, the text of Ex 3:13‒15 presents an etymology of the divine name that suggests God’s active presence with Israel or what God will accomplish for Israel; the text does not address the nature or being of God. In Part I, I critique this interpretive trend, arguing that religio-historical approa

The text thus has a very liberating image and this is where the problem lies, because a critical reading of the text creates a far more oppressive picture.

I locate the church’s reading of Scripture within this account of the Spirit’s working. I argue that such a Spirit-led

This dissertation brings together the hermeneutical approaches of three Old Testament scholars, specifically as they pertain to the interpretation of Isaiah 52.13-53.12 in the framework of Christian theology. Contemporary discourse and hermeneutical discussions have led to the development of a point of confusion in theological hermeneutics, focusing on what relationship older frames of reference may have with those more recent. Bernhard Duhm is presented as a history-of-religions scholar who does not easily abide by popular understandings of that school. This results in a theologically attuned

The ubiquity of mental illness and its exponential growth in the US has made it the primary “medical disability” of our time.

In the history of Christian communities, mental illness has tended to be viewed as some form of malignant manifestation that stands against the will and rule of God. It has thus tended to evoke a response from within the church. Today, for the most part, that response has been dele
