Chronicles in Parallel
The books of Chronicles cover many of the events narrated elsewhere in the Bible. Close reading however will show many differences between the accounts. The Chronicler, for example, avoids all reference, unless forced, to the northern kingdom of Israel, focusing instead on the kingdom of Judah. Smaller differences include the Chronicler's account of Solomon dedicating the temple from a podium and the Chronicler's ignoring of David's great sin, Bathsheba. This parallel, by placing the narratives side by side, allows in depth comparative study of these differences. The parallel uses the L.C.L. Brenton translation of the Septuagint and the Darby literal translation for its text. Together they offer the student easy comparison between the different treatments of the same events.

Statistical Approaches to Paul’s Letters
This book demonstrates the utility of statistical and computational approaches to Paul’s letters. Such work helps resolve questions of authorship, describes and quantifies aspects of Paul’s style, and explains structural relationships within and between Paul’s letters. A series of linked case studies deploy a shared set of top-down stylistic features to differentially analyse Paul’s seven undisputed letters. Each chapter explores a different digital approach, co-written with a subject expert in this method. Chapters range from a history of the field to theoretical branches of mathematics, with each chapter providing a case study applying a different method to issues within Pauline Studies, with progressively more sophisticated statistical, computational, and mathematical models.

Divine Parodies & Holy Histories
This book is a collection of original, thoughtful pieces meant to illustrate and apply Biblical Christian principles. "Divine parodies" present Christian truths in an artful and entertaining form. A parody is a humorous or satirical imitation of something else. Christian parody is a time-honored tradition. The acme of Christian parody was achieved by Erasmus in "The Praise of Folly" 500 years ago. "Holy histories" are illustrations of Gospel truth drawn from historical persons and events. They should not be confused with hagiography, which in modern times is used pejoratively of histories and biographies not considered sufficiently critical or cynical. There is much to be learned from the past, and many persons worthy of emulation. Also included is a selection of original poetry, which likewise is meant to convey Gospel principles.

Philemon and Onesimus
The Epistle of Paul to Philemon is a very small New Testament Book. It is nestled between the epistles to Titus and the Hebrews. However, though this Book of Philemon is small, it is bursting with Meaning and with important Knowledge that we, as Christians, ought to desire to attain and possess for our own. Much of the Meaning and Knowledge that is to be discovered in the Epistle to Philemon, can be uncovered through an examination of the relationship that existed between Philemon and Onesimus (and also the relationships of these two men with the Apostle Paul). I certainly believe that there is much that we can learn from this Epistle, and from the ways that these men related one to another. I hope that this little book that I have written will help both you and me to attain some of the Knowledge and understand some of the Meaning that is contained within the confines of the Epistle of Paul to Philemon.

Learning to Grow Old
Paul Tournier has practised medicine in Geneva since 1928, as a physician who acquired psychiatric training and experience because he learned that many of his patients needed help going deeper than drugs or surgery. Many of his books are in paperback editions, including A Doctor's Casebook in the Light of the Bible, The Meaning of Persons, Escape from Loneliness, The Strong and the Weak, The Person Reborn and A Place for You. Previous books by Dr Tournier have, he remarks, grown spontaneously out of his work and experience. Now, for the first time, he writes at the request of his English and American publishers on a topic not of his own choosing: old age and retirement. `It sounds rather like homework', he commented, because although he is now seventy-three he is still young in spirit and has by no means retired from active life. But he accepted the invitation, because of his firm belief that the problems of old age and retirement concern not only the elderly, but also the whole of society. How we grow old depends upon the way we live throughout our life and the kind of social conditions that we create. Here, then, is a book of personal counsel for those for whom retirement is, or soon will be, a reality. Yet at the same time it is a book for everyone concerned that ours should be a humane society, to learn from while there is still time.

Using the Book of Common Prayer
The Book of Common Prayer remains at the heart of the Church of England and using it is an essential skill for all clergy and readers, yet many are no longer familiar with its contents. This practical guide explains how to use the Book of Common Prayer in a way that is accessible and informative. Introducing this central tradition of Anglican worship without using technical language or assuming prior knowledge, it is intended as a beginner’s guide for ordinands and readers, especially those for whom the Prayer Book tradition may be alien. Part 1 of the book offers a general introduction to the history, theology and liturgical character of the BCP. It also explores the place and meaning of ‘common prayer’ within the Anglican tradition. Part 2 offers general practical advice on the principal services of the BCP, how to use them, and where flexibility is permitted. Using the Book of Common Prayer will help its readers come to a renewed appreciation of the place of the Book of Common Prayer in the distinctive tradition of Anglican praise and prayer.
