Reformed epistemology has reclaimed for contemporary apologetics not only Calvin’s notion of sensus divinitatis) but also its negative counterpart—the idea of the corruption of human intellectual capacities through original sin. But while Alvin Plantinga’s retrieval of the concept finds some support in Calvin’s Institutes, it does not do foil justice to the exegetically determined histo…

The Baron d'Holbach, a prominent figure in the French Enlightenment, is best known for his writings against religion. His prolific campaign of atheism and anti-clericalism, waged from the printing presses of Amsterdam in the years around 1770, was so radical that it provoked an unprecedented public response. For the baron's enemies, at least, it suggested the end of an era: proof that the likes…

A number of 'histories of Israel ' have been written over the past few decades yet the basic methodological questions are not always addressed: how do we write such a history and how can we know anything about the history of Israel?. In Ancient Israel Lester L. Grabbe sets out to summarize what we know through a survey of sources and how we know it by a discussion of methodology and by evaluati…
College students have some familiarity with interpreting written texts from high school English classes. But after years of watching TV, movies, and music videos, most college students are more comfortable with visual media than written texts. Before even opening a Bible, I introduce interpretation using a visual text, such as a political poster from a different country or historical era...

This book is an introduction to Judaism of the Second Temple period.

I have already given a detailed history of the Judaism of the period in Judaism from Cyrus to Hadrian (1992) and the four-volume wo…

In books of this sort some introductory word is typically said concerning the notion of "coherence" and its application to theism. Following this pattern, the question I wish to raise is whether it is rational to embrace theism even in the face of unanswerable arguments for the incoherence of theism. That is to say, if as the result of our inquiry we are forced to conclude that we are unable to…
This book aspires to answer a relatively simple question: How did we get from John F.

Bush’s declaration on the eve of the 2000 Iowa precinct caucuses that Jesus was hi…

Can Kuyper help one in this regard, given his controversial legasy, especially in …
