Shalom shines Biblical Light on the issues and unsettled mood of our
times. Today, more than ever, we cry out for Shalom. See what the Bible says. Old Testament scholar
Donald E. Gowan unravels the multiple
Biblical threads of this eternal quest in this masterful exploration of the
Hebrew concept "Shalom" and the Greek "eirene".
Peacemaking is a central concern of the church and
the world today.
Beginning with the Old Testament Hebrew shalom
and the New Testament Greek eirene, the meanings of 'peace' are
traced and their relevance for today explored.
For the first time Kerygma is offering
the entire Shalom study in a newly revised CDROM format.
Each
information-packed session is appended with Guidelines for Study,
including:
-
Background from the Author
-
Questions for Reflection
-
Issues for Further
Study
-
For Groups
"For Groups," offers exercises for
interactive group exploration of key Biblical texts and issues.
Finally, a section entitled, "Preparing to Lead
Shalom Bible Study Groups" provides additional guidance for using
all the available resources to craft lively group sessions. In all,
these sections are intended to assist you in gaining the maximum
benefit from the study whether you use it individually or with a
group. Also, we hope pastors will find a valuable resource for
preaching in the material presented by Dr. Gowan.
