Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society Volume 53
Overview
The Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society is published four times a year (March, June, September, December) by the Evangelical Theological Society. Founded in 1949, the Evangelical Theological Society (ETS) is a group of scholars, teachers, pastors, students, and others dedicated to the oral exchange and written expression of theological thought and research. The ETS is devoted to the inerrancy and inspiration of the Scriptures and the gospel of Jesus Christ—thus, the Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society (JETS), is an academic periodical featuring peer reviewed articles, as well as extended book reviews, in biblical and theological disciplines—honoring these beliefs.
Top Highlights
“‘The question is not whether cremation is always [or ever] a personal sin. The question is not whether God can reassemble ‘cremains.’ The question is whether burial [or cremation] is a Christian act and, if so, then what does it communicate?’” (Volume 53, Number 2, Pages 336–337)
“Perhaps a larger stress on the process rather than just the writer would provide an avenue for going forward” (Volume 53, Number 1, Page 79)
“contemporary systematic theologians and biblical scholars differ in their descriptions of inspiration” (Volume 53, Number 1, Page 66)
“prophetic language is inherently functional, often contingent, and invariably contextualized.” (Volume 53, Number 3, Page 561)
“The evidence of collection, revision, co-authorship, and secretaries all raise possible problems when considered alongside the traditional definitions of inspiration. Biblical scholars often note these issues without relating their findings to inspiration. More examples could be given, but the issue is clear. The traditional definitions of inspiration do not account for all the types of material found in the biblical texts.” (Volume 53, Number 1, Page 79)
