Partly, it’s all the pretty stuff, and I really do love the gorgeous covers that our art director, David Fassett, and his team create for our titles. Partly it’s the interviews and excerpts we include, since we think this should be as much like a magazine or journal as possible. (You’ll find substantive content on pages 7, 10, 19, and 31 in this issue.) But really it’s about the books, of course. Books are all about bridge building—jumping gaps, making connections, and closing circuits so the power can flow. Books are all about giving readers an experience they wouldn’t otherwise have: an experience with an author who’s been somewhere, done something, learned something, lived something. And books are all about giving authors an opportunity they wouldn’t otherwise have: to multiply their gifts, share the load, and spread the wealth. It’s that two-way street that’s so amazing—the mutuality of the reader/author relationship where the power lies. And of course you are right there at that junction, that synapse of reader and author. It goes without saying that you are readers, and many of you (given that you’re holding an IVP Academic catalog) are surely authors. In this season’s catalog you’ll find new and forthcoming titles across our usual wide range of fields, from the physical sciences and philosophy to race and the New Testament. Even if your focus is trained on one particular realm of intellectual endeavor, I hope you’ll dip into other sections of this catalog and be encouraged to see what your peers are reading and writing in other quarters. Where we diverge, no less than where we come together, creates tremendous social capital for us as a community. So thanks for being part of all this! I look forward to finding new ways together to bridge the gaps that we see so prevalent in our cultures and institutions. We at IVP Academic think about such bridge building a lot, and the roles you play in the classroom, church, neighborhood, and library are a huge blessing to us all.

But just as the Psalmist gained insight into God’s character through the observation of nature, modern scientific study can deepen and enrich our vision of the Creator and our place in his creation. In this often contentious field Bishop, Funck, Lewis, Moshier, and Walton serve as our able guides. Based on over two decades of teaching origins together in the classroom, the authors present a textbook exploring mainstream scientific theories of origins in astronomy, cosmology, chemistry, geology, biology, physical anthropology, and genetics. While many authors engage origins from a Christian perspective, this is the first work offering a full-fledged discussion of the scientific narrative of origins, from the Big Bang through humankind, accessible to a lay audience in biblical and theological perspective. Topics include • Principles of biblical interpretation • Close readings of relevant Genesis texts • A comprehensive trinitarian doctrine of creation • Cosmic origins • The geologic history of Earth • The origin of life on Earth • The origin of species and diversity of life • Human origins • New creation and creation care • Science education INTERMEDIATE Rather than the familiar scenario where science and faith compete, DECEMBER 2018 this book seeks to diffuse tensions by taking the inspiration and 650 pages, casebound, 978-0-8308-5291-8, $75.00, WPD authority of the Bible seriously while respecting and honoring God’s revelation through creation. Understanding Scientific Theories of Origins CONTENTS gives the reader a detailed picture of the sciences of origins along with Part 1: Getting Started on the Journey how they fit into the story of God’s creative and redemptive action.

Bond School of Divinity, University of Edinburgh, Mound Place, Edinburgh, EH1 2LX [email protected] After discussing the scholarly preference for dating Jesus’ crucifixion to 7th April 30 CE, this article argues that the precise date can no longer be recovered. All we can claim with any degree of historical certainty is that Jesus died some time around Passover (perhaps a week or so before the feast) between 29 and 34 CE.

There is a freshness and originality here that few biblical scholars can match.”—Robert Louis Wilken, University of Virginia “Creative, profound, even startling, these studies by Anderson open up fresh vistas for reading the Old Testament through the resources both of Jewish tradition and of historic Christian theology.

In Memoriam: Charles Irwin Strickland My father (1947-2006) Through many delays, occasioned by a variety of hindrances, the detail of which would be useless to the Reader, I have at length brought this part of my work to its conclusion; and now send it to the Public, not without a measure of anxiety; for though perfectly satisfied with the purity of my motives, and the simplicity of my intention, 1 am far from being pleased with the work itself. The wise and the learned will no doubt find many things defective, and perhaps some incorrect. Defects necessarily attach themselves to my plan: the perpetual endeavour to be as concise as possible, has, no doubt, in several cases produced obscurity. Whatever errors may be observed, must be attributed to my scantiness of knowledge, when compared with the learning and information necessary for the tolerable perfection of such a work.

When God placed humanity in Eden, He instructed, “Of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die” (Genesis 2:17).1 Not long after this, Satan came and flatly contradicted God by saying, “You will not surely die” (Genesis 3:4b).
