Connections builds an understanding of the relationship between the Bible and everyday life by examining the individual pieces and how they fit together. It invites us to broaden our comprehension of the Bible and its applications to modern life by placing current Scripture scholarship within the concerns of other fields, such as ethical problems in light of Scripture, science and Scripture, contemporary social challenges and Scripture, and the Bible in non-biblical cultures.
This series reveals more of God's intent, encouraging us to study and reflect on the Word from the life experiences, outlooks, and wisdom of many people.
In The Hope of Glory, David deSilva introduces readers to the cultural context of the ancient Mediterranean world and the role of the social values of honor and dishonor. He shows that with the help of cultural anthropologists, sociologists, and ancient authors who reflected on their culture firsthand, today's readers get a fresh and illuminating look at the Scriptures.
