It suggests that by receiving these thirteen Psalms, the canonical community enters an intensive identification with David and participates in the Davidic life and experience. Once this is established, the discussion turns to examine these insights in a Christian theological context in conversation with Augustine's totus Christus principle. It is suggested that the hermeneutical situation created by the biographical superscriptions provides a way for the totus Christus principle to be re-invoked in contemporary interpretation.","PeriodicalId":44026,"journal":{"name":"SCOTTISH JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49078579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, for all its heuristic promise, the designation ‘Cyrillian’, must in Luther's case be understood either as an overly generalised statement of a well-established grammar of christology – in which case it simply is Luther's foundation and, as such, explains nothing specific about Luther's christology and, moreover, fails to do justice to the reformer's crucial argumentative moves. Alternatively, when taken for a set of material similarities, the designation is simply inaccurate, for Luther is decidedly not a Cyrillian, despite some fundamental convergences with the thought of the Alexandrian patriarch. Luther's context, as we demonstrate, leads him not only to go beyond Cyril, but also to argue in a manner contrary to Cyril, in order to secure what for both theologians is a realist eucharistic backdrop of their commitment to the Word's incarnation.","PeriodicalId":44026,"journal":{"name":"SCOTTISH JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY","volume":"76 1","pages":"214 - 229"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49042203","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I argue that Bonhoeffer's creative use of preservation orders to build an international alliance provides the scope required to meet the present biodiversity crisis while pre-empting Karl Barth's criticism of static regionalism and avoiding problematic elements in Carl Schmitt's concept of the ‘restraining force’. Drawing on Bonhoeffer's 1932 address, ‘On the Theological Foundation of the Work of the World Alliance’, I present three convictions to guide the task of preservation today, which include the formation of alliances between ecclesial and scientific communities in order to properly specify God's commandment.","PeriodicalId":44026,"journal":{"name":"SCOTTISH JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY","volume":"76 1","pages":"345 - 356"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46619337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the heart of this simple and provocative claim lies a lively and grounded spirituality. Norman Wirzba ’ s most recent book, Agrarian Spirit: Cultivating Faith, Community, and the Land presents an alternative agrarian vocation which, if embraced, places us in deeper and more just relationship with God, self, neighbour and the land. Lest the reader assume (and summarily reject) a premise that the agrarian life comprises an atavistic return to rural life, we must quickly clarify: agrarians are not farmers. Agrarians in all kinds of places and contexts ‘ work to improve the lives of people and land at the same time ’ (p. 57). This work includes attention to ‘ good food, clean water, amiable company, good work, excellent tools, fertile soil, pollinating bees, helpful neighbors, protein-producing herbivores, and strong traditions of memory that pass on essential insights and skills to following generations ’ (p. 57). In Agrarian Spirit , Wirzba turns his characteristically interdisciplinary and agrarian lens to practices, the embodied ‘ ways ’ of Christian faith. Even so, his treatment of agrarian spiritual exercises remains philosophically and theologically grounded. The first part of the book adeptly frames the task of reimagining spiritual practices and dispositions through an agrarian lens, while the second part attends to a series of six practices and dispositions.

Throughout the whole volume, Duby’s conclusions are rarely surprising for those with some familiarity with the ‘classical’ tradition culminating in Aquinas and leading into the Reformed scholastics. What’s noteworthy is the process. Duby reads critics as sensitively as space allows in order to clarify and strengthen his thesis: the very Jesus presented in scripture is none other than the eternal Son, who is one in immutable simplicity with the Father and the Spirit and who took on human nature in all its finitude and capacity for growth, maturation, suffering and death. This book is no easy read, but it is worth the effort. Duby remains fully rooted in post-Reformation scholasticism, bringing the best of that tradition to the task of articulating the sui generis union of humanity and divinity in the person of the Son. This work has the potential to help increase the dialogue across disciplines, and I hope it also inspires others to mine their own traditions for conceptual riches for the work of articulating a vision of Christ rooted in scripture’s proclamation.","PeriodicalId":44026,"journal":{"name":"SCOTTISH JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY","volume":"76 1","pages":"384 - 386"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47210845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Collins then introduces Frei’s five types of theology in chapter 4 and tests its usefulness by pairing each type with a specific theology of religions that emerged in the ecumenical assemblies of the twentieth century in the following way: Laymen’s Foreign Mission Inquiry (1932) as type one, WCC Missionary Structure of the Congregation (1967) as type two, IMC Assembly of Jerusalem (1928) as type three, IMC Assembly of Tambram (1938) as type four, and the Wheaton Declaration (1966) as type five. In the closing chapter, Collins draws upon Peter Ochs, Willie James Jennings, and Frei to propose how a theology of religions may be hospitable to the comprehensiveness of God’s concern for creation in light of the particularity of Jesus Christ. There are at least three obvious contributions to be noted. First, Collins offers a comprehensive and insightful analysis of Race’s presuppositions, rationales and priorities that fund his pluralist theology of religions. Second, while ‘postliberal’ theologians already have contributed to the development of theology of religions, this is the first substantive treatment that has brought Frei’s work to bear upon the topic. And lastly, while these two trajectories of inquiry are significant in their own right, utilising Frei’s typology for illuminating theologies of religions embodied in the ecumenical assemblies is especially creative and useful. Collins has rendered a great service in these regards, though the relevance of Frei’s work to inter-religious and comparative theology remains to be explored. He demonstrates throughout the book remarkable knowledge of a wide range of primary and secondary resources, a deep reservoir of expertise needed in addressing the major questions in Race’s typology, Frei’s project, and the various ecumenical theologies of religions with enormous clarity and depth. Without doubt Frei’s contribution to theology is immense and continues to remain relevant and useful to contemporary theology as this work nicely demonstrates. Collins has taken Frei’s hermeneutics, Christology and theological method and extended them in a creative way to think about theology of religions, indeed a welcome addition to Frei scholarship.","PeriodicalId":44026,"journal":{"name":"SCOTTISH JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY","volume":"76 1","pages":"286 - 288"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48077709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
