Abstract

"Face of the Deep is the full theology of creation from the primal chaos. It proposes a creation ex profundis - creation out of the watery depths - both as an alternative to the orthodox power-discourse of creation from nothingness, and as a figure of the bottomless process of becoming." "From within a dangerous and crowded postmodernity, Catherine Keller's impassioned, graceful meditation opens up an ultimately hopeful space within the magnetic depths of cosmic origin. As a landmark work of immense significance for Jewish and Christian theology, gender studies, literature, philosophy and ecology, Face of the Deep stretches our originary story to profound new horizons, rewriting the starting point for western spiritual discourse."

Abstract

Scientific accounts of existence give chance a central role. At the smallest level, quantum theory involves uncertainty and evolution is driven by chance and necessity. These ideas do not fit easily with theology in which chance has been seen as the enemy of purpose. One option is to argue, as proponents of Intelligent Design do, that chance is not real and can be replaced by the work of a Designer. Others adhere to a deterministic theology in which God is in total control. Neither of these views, it is argued, does justice to the complexity of nature or the greatness of God. The thesis of this book is that chance is neither unreal nor non-existent but an integral part of God's creation. This view is expounded, illustrated and defended by drawing on the resources of probability theory and numerous examples from the natural and social worlds.

Abstract

La doctrine de la Création après avoir connu une longue éclipse, revient à I'avant-plan de la réflexion théologique et catéchétique. Elle y est conviée par une conjoncture où en tous domaines, s'opère une redécouverte du cosmos. L'objectif de la session théologique, organisée par l'École des sciences philosophiques et religieuses des F.U.S.L., a dès lors été, d'abord, de bien entendre la sollicitation multiple ainsi adressée à la pensée chrétienne. En particulier, il s'est agi de faire le point sur les avancées de la recherche dans les champs de l'astrophysique et de la cosmologie, ainsi que sur les interrogations proprement philosophiques qui en naissent ; d'offrir des voies de réappropriation du donné biblique en matière de visée des origines et de l'origine ; de méditer sur la confession biblique du monde comme création en tant que mode spécifique d'expérience du tout ; de déployer les axes majeurs d'une théologie articulant, à frais nouveaux, Création et Salut, essentiellement au moyen de la catégorie apocalyptique d'accomplissement. Il apparaîtra, au terme du parcours, que penser et reconnaître le monde comme, « réalité tierce » entre l'homme et Dieu, restituer au cosmos une dimension « salutaire » propre, constitue un acte audacieux et réflexif, décisif pour la vitalité du christianisme aujourd'hui

Abstract

Bernard F. Batto spent the bulk of his career examining the ancient Near Eastern context of the Hebrew Bible, with particular interest in the influence of the surrounding cultures on the biblical creation stories. This collection gathers six of his most important previously published essays and adds two new contributions. Among the essays, Batto identifies various creation motifs prevalent in the ancient Near East and investigates the reflexes of these motifs in Genesis 1–11 and other biblical accounts of the primeval period. He demonstrates how the biblical writers adapted and responded to the creation ideas of Mesopotamia, Egypt, Ugarit, and elsewhere.The articles in the volume were written as independent essays. Nevertheless, they are united by theme. Throughout, Batto makes clear his understanding of the Hebrew Bible as a patently unique text, yet one that cannot possibly be understood independent of greater cultural sphere in which it developed. In the Beginning will serve as an indispensable resource for those interested in both the biblical ideas of creation and the mythology of the ancient Near East that influenced them.

Abstract

We have, as a theological community, generally lost a language in which to speak of the created-ness of the world. As a consequence, our discourses of reason cannot bridge the way we know God and the way we know the world. Therefore, argues Oliver Davies, a primary task of contemporary theology is the regeneration of a Christian account of the world as sacramental, leading to the formation of a Christian conception of reason and a new Christocentric understanding of the real. Both the Johannine tradition of creation through the Word and a Eucharistic semiotics of Christ as the embodied, sacrificial and creative speech of God serve the project of a repairal of Christian cosmology. The world itself is viewed as a creative text authored by God, of which we as interpreters are an integral part. This is a wide-ranging and convincing book that makes an important contribution to modern theology.

Abstract

In ihrem Buch "Inkarnation und Schöpfung" untersucht Anne Käfer das Verhältnis von Gottes Menschwerdung und seiner Schöpfung, wie es die drei einflussreichen Theologen Martin Luther, Friedrich Schleiermacher und Karl Barth beschreiben. Der Vergleich der drei Positionen macht deutlich, dass das Thema für zahlreiche theologische Fragestellungen von grundlegender Bedeutung ist. Das jeweilige Verständnis von Gottes Liebe, von seiner Treue, seiner Allmacht und seiner Freiheit ist bedingt durch das Verständnis der Inkarnation. Deren Deutung und vor allem die Weise, in der die Autoren Jesus Christus als wahren Gott und wahren Menschen fassen, sind gebunden an bestimmte anthropologische Überzeugungen. Die Anthropologie und vor allem die jeweilige Sündenlehre der drei protestantischen Klassiker sind in der Interpretation von Anne Käfer entscheidend für ihre Verhältnisbestimmung von Menschwerdung und (Menschen-)Schöpfung Gottes. Insbesondere an der unterschiedlichen Beschreibung von Sünde und menschlicher Freiheit im Gegenüber zum dreieinigen Gott wird die grundsätzliche Differenz zwischen der lutherischen Position und den beiden reformierten Positionen deutlich, die das Thema Inkarnation und Schöpfung prägt.
