| Résumé : | This volume is a miscellany of 8 studies dealing with various aspects of biblical faith and experience. Three subjects throw light on the inerrancy of Scripture: evidence for the extent of the Flood from the Bible and from Flood traditions; the effect of the curse ("in the sweat of thy brow") as stated in Genesis in the light of scientific studies; and how names are viewed in the Bible and other cultures. Some of the physical aspects of evil which impact daily life (diseases, earthquakes, wars, etc.) can be viewed as expressions of God's common grace. Two Papers, which are more personal, are concerned with worship and prayer. The final Paper defines Christian scholarship. |
