Description

Logos Bookstores’ 2015 Highest Book in Theology/Doctrine/Reference “The Lord is my shepherd.” Thus begins essentially the most beloved of all Psalms―and thus begins a thousand-year journey throughout the Bible. Prophets, apostles and Jesus himself took up this image from David, reshaping it, developing it and applying it to their very own situations and needs. Kenneth Bailey uses his celebrated insights into Middle Eastern culture and especially his familiarity with Middle Eastern shepherding customs to bring new light and life to our working out of this central image of the Christian faith. With every of nine major Old and New Testament passages, Bailey reveals the literary artistry of the Biblical writers and summarizes their key theological features. His work could also be enriched by his unique get entry to to very early Middle Eastern commentaries on these passages, bringing fresh working out from throughout the mindset of these ancient worlds. The Good Shepherd invites us to experience a wealthy, biblical feast of ethical, theological and artistic delights.
