Chargement... Corporal Punishment in the Bible: A Redemptive-Movement Hermeneutic for…par William J. Webb
   Aucun Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre. This is an excellent overview of corporal punishment in the Bible (OT primarily). In this case, corporal punishment is applied to both adults and children. William Webb makes a very persuasive Biblical case for utilizing exclusively non-corporal methods of discipline with children. Three reasons particularly stand out: an analogy with abolishing slavery not merely reforming slavery, more gentle and constructive means are available, and protecting the Christian witness. These three reasons among others result in Christians being obligated to embrace non-corporal punishment exclusively. (  ) aevaughn | Dec 14, 2015 |  aucune critique | ajouter une critique
William Webb confronts those often-avoided biblical passages that call for the corporal punishment of children, slaves, and wrongdoers. How should we understand and apply those injunctions? Are we obligated to replicate them today? Building on the findings of his previous work in Slaves, Women & Homosexuals, Webb argues that a redemptive hermeneutic points us to God's ultimate ethic and enables us to remain truly biblical.
