Grisanti MSJ 27/2 (Fall 2016) 111–12 EDITORIAL Due only to the graceful provision of the Lord, The Master’s Seminary (TMS) completed thirty years of ministry in June 2016, and The Master’s Seminary Journal (MSJ) is completing twenty-seven years of publication with this issue. For these bountiful blessings, we can only give thanks to our great God. TMS was founded to be used of the Lord to train men that He had called to the pastorate for the ministry of expository preaching. From its beginning, TMS has sought to train men in text- driven biblical exposition. This expository ministry is based on a rigorous study of the biblical languages, the biblical text, historical and systematic theology, and pas- toral ministry because an expository preacher must have a solid exegetical, theolog- ical, and practical foundation based on a historical-grammatical hermeneutic. In 1992, the faculty of TMS authored Rediscovering Expository Preaching (since reti- tled, Preaching) to clearly state the biblical mandate and present a basic method of scriptural exposition. The school continues to stand on the principles and practices presented in that volume. In 1990, MSJ was formed to impact the greater ecclesiasti- cal world with articles that explained biblical truth, interacted with current exegetical and theological discussions, and applied the lessons to practical ministry situations. In all of this, the Lord’s hand has sustained the work of TMS and MSJ. Nearly eight years after the founding of TMS, four years after the beginning of MSJ, and two years after the publication of Rediscovering Expository Preaching, a new homiletic approach was introduced (or according to its exponents, “reintro- duced”) into broader evangelicalism. This homiletic goes by the label “Christ-Cen- tered Preaching” and was popularized in a 1994 book by Bryan Chapell, Christ-Cen- tered Preaching: Redeeming the Expository Sermon (a second edition was released in 2005). More than any other book, Chapell’s book has impacted the homiletical discussion and Chapell has become the leading spokesman for the Christ-Centered Preaching movement among evangelicals who affirm biblical inerrancy and the need for expository preaching. Sydney Greidanus (Preaching Christ from the Old Testa- ment, 1999), Graeme Goldsworthy (Preaching the Whole Bible as Christian Scrip- ture, 2000), and Dennis Johnson (Him We Proclaim, 2007) have authored further influential volumes that promote the Christocentric, gospel-centered homiletic as central to Christian preaching. Popular preachers like Tim Keller, D. A. Carson, and John Piper also promote and model Christ-Centered Preaching. To some degree, all Christ-Centered Preaching advocates argue that a sermon without Jesus Christ, the gospel, and the grace of God being mentioned is sub-Christian. 111 112 | Editorial The continuing and growing influence of the Christ-Centered Preaching move- ment in contemporary evangelicalism led the TMS faculty to address this topic in the 2016 Richard L. Mayhue Faculty Lectures. The fruit of these lectures is presented in the MSJ articles that follow in this issue. The reader will soon glean that TMS pre- sents a “friendly” critique of our fellow-Christians’ attempts to promote biblical ex- position, the preaching of the gospel, and the exaltation of Jesus Christ. However, we do have reservations about the theological system that undergirds most of the propo- nents. Moreover, a Christocentric homiletic has historically come from or has led to an allegorical hermeneutic. My colleagues argue that to guard against a subtle or overt allegorical interpretation a rigorous historical-grammatical hermeneutic must undergird all of our expository preaching. Jesus Christ can rightfully be discovered in many OT and NT texts, but He must not be artificially imposed on those texts where He is not presented. Finally, the NT itself does not always preach OT texts in a Christ-centered manner; the NT uses the OT in a number of ways. A further reason for this lectureship is to make sure that our TMS motto, “We Preach Christ,” is understood in its proper context. We affirm that the NT does speak of the need to focus on Jesus Christ when the gospel is preached. In an evangelistic context, the sin of man and the good news of what God has done for sinners through the person and work of Jesus Christ is central to our proclamation. As we enter into the five-hundredth year of the anniversary of the Protestant Reformation, TMS once again dedicates itself to the truth of solus Christus (Christ alone). There is no other way of salvation given by God except through the work of Christ applied to the sinner through the agency of the Holy Spirit. This does not mean that every biblical exposi- tion is Christ-centered, but that every biblical exposition of the gospel must be Christ- centered. This theme of “We Preach Christ” will be explored further in March 2017 at the annual Shepherds’ Conference at Grace Community Church, cosponsored by TMS. We invite you to come to the conference. But in the meantime, we present for your information, edification, and consideration the following articles from the TMS faculty. Keith Essex [email protected] Professor of Bible Exposition The Master’s Seminary MSJ 27/2 (Fall 2016) 113–39 A HERMENEUTICAL EVALUATION OF THE CHRISTOCENTRIC HERMENEUTIC Abner Chou Professor of Bible The Master’s University How to study and teach the Bible are of utmost importance for a pastor. The Christocentric hermeneutic has proposed a modification to a grammatical-historical hermeneutical approach. This article maintains that such an alteration is not scrip- turally warranted and that the grammatical-historical method is not only justified by Scripture but also more than sufficient to discover the glories of Christ as perfectly presented in God’s Word. Accordingly, a Christ-centered ministry not only honors Christ in the pulpit by proclaiming Him but also in the study by handling His Word the way He demands. * * * * * Preaching occupies a central place in the pastor’s ministry. It is mandated by God (2 Tim 4:1–2) for every season (2 Tim 4:2b) in order to feed and equip the flock (2 Tim 4:2b; cf. Eph 4:12; John 21:15). It is vital for the church (Eph 4:12–13), piv- otal in one’s ministry (1 Tim 4:16), and of the utmost importance to God (2 Tim 4:1; cf. 2 Tim. 2:14–15). For this reason, God demands we rightly divide His Word (2 Tim 2:15). We need to care about interpreting the text rightly as much as God does. However, what does it mean to “get it right”? Some have argued that preaching that is not Christocentric is sub-Christian. It falls short of Paul’s declaration that he preaches Christ and Him crucified (1 Cor 2:2). Such an allegation is of the utmost seriousness as it strikes at the core of one of the most important tasks for a pastor. This dilemma illustrates the need not only to have an exegetical process or her- meneutical knowledge but, even more, hermeneutical conviction. We need to be con- vinced our hermeneutical approach is one that rightly divides the Word of Truth. The goal of this article is to evaluate the claims of the Christocentric hermeneutic to that end, to give us confidence and boldness that a grammatical-historical method not only honors what God has commanded us to do, but also brings the greatest glory to Christ. 113 114 | A Hermeneutical Evaluation of the Christocentric Hermeneutic Hermeneutical Definitions As we begin to investigate the Christocentric method, we need to be familiar with two hermeneutical concepts:

Lucci University of Pennsylvania, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://repository.upenn.edu/edissertations Part of the Classical Literature and Philology Commons Recommended Citation Lucci, Joseph M., "Hidden in Plain Sight: Martial and the Greek Epigrammatic Tradition" (2015).

Hidden in Plain Sight: Martial and the Greek Epigrammatic Tradition Abstract Martial, perhaps the best-known author of Latin epigram, has enjoyed a resurgence of scholarly attention over the past two decades, and much has been made of his self-professed debt to earlier Latin epigrammatists, especially Catullus. Less prevalent, however, has been discussion of how he relates to authors of Greek epigram, which may not be surprising given that Martial passes over the Greek epigrammatic tradition in nearly total silence. This dissertation seeks to explain the silence. Through close readings of specific poems yb Martial, both in themselves and alongside epigrams by his Greek predecessors, I argue that he has fashioned an intentionally ambivalent attitude toward the Greek tradition. Martial contends with a fundamentally Roman literary condundrum – he must negotiate the inevitable and irreconcilable tension between acknowledging the importance of his Greek predecessors and asserting his own claim to superiority over them. But Martial, I suggest, relishes such tensions, depicting Greece and Greek epigram as inconsistent and even bipolar entities which he can then exploit as sources of humor or self-aggrandizement.

  • Jane Eyre an Autobiography
    JANE EYRE AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY by CHARLOTTE BRONTË ILLUSTRATED BY F. H. TOWNSEND London SERVICE & PATON 5 henrietta street 1897 The Illustrations in this Volume are the copyright of Service & Paton, London TO W. M. THACKERAY, Esq., This Work is respectfully inscribed by THE AUTHOR PREFACE A preface to the first edition of “Jane Eyre” being unnecessary, I gave none: this second edition demands a few words both of acknowledgment and miscellaneous remark. My thanks are due in three quarters. To the Public, for the indulgent ear it has inclined to a plain tale with few pretensions. To the Press, for the fair field its honest suffrage has opened to an obscure aspirant. To my Publishers, for the aid their tact, their energy, their practical sense and frank liberality have afforded an unknown and unrecommended Author. The Press and the Public are but vague personifications for me, and I must thank them in vague terms; but my Publishers are definite: so are certain generous critics who have encouraged me as only large-hearted and high-minded men know how to encourage a struggling stranger; to them, i.e., to my Publishers and the select Reviewers, I say cordially, Gentlemen, I thank you from my heart. Having thus acknowledged what I owe those who have aided and approved me, I turn to another class; a small one, so far as I know, but not, therefore, to be overlooked. I mean the timorous or carping few who doubt the tendency of such books as “Jane Eyre:” in whose eyes whatever is unusual is wrong; whose ears detect in each protest against bigotry—that parent of crime—an insult to piety, that regent of God on earth.

  • Under the Volcano
    Under the Volcano Malcolm Lowry with an introduction by Stephen Spender 3/692 and an afterword by William T. Vollmann To Margerie, my wife Contents Introduction by Stephen Spender Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Chapter 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Chapter 9 Chapter 10 Chapter 11 Chapter 12 Afterword by William T. Vollmann A Biography of Malcolm Lowry Introduction by Stephen Spender IN 1936 MALCOLM LOWRY wrote a short story called “Under the Volcano.” It is the account of the excursion to the Fiesta at Chapultepec of a man called only the Consul, accompan- ied by his daughter, Yvonne, and her fiancé, Hugh. The outing is brutally interrupted by a scene of murder. The body of an Indian—his hat pulled over his eyes to conceal a wound, from which blood flows over his face—is discovered lying under a hedge on the roadside. The bus in which the three are travelling is stopped, the passengers get out, and, owing to the Mexican laws which can make those who go to the assistance of the victim of violence accessories after the fact, they are unable to do anything to help the Indian. Be- fore the disaster, the Consul, who is a drunkard, has no- ticed, conspiratorially, a fellow passenger, a pelado (“pela- dos,” he thought, “the peeled ones, were those who did not have to be rich to prey on the really poor”). The pelado was “very drunk indeed, and he felt a queer envy of him, albeit 7/692 it was perhaps a stir of fellowship.” After the encounter with the corpse, the Consul is the one to notice that the pe- lado has stolen the dying man’s money, with which, indeed, he basely and impertinently pays his fare.
