    A Seal of Faith: Rereading Paul on Circumcision, Torah, and the Gentiles Asha K. Moorthy Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Asha K. Moorthy All rights reserved ABSTRACT A Seal of Faith: Rereading Paul on Circumcision, Torah, and the Gentiles Asha K. Moorthy It is generally held that the Apostle Paul dismissed the rite of circumcision for Gentiles. This dissertation, however, offers a different perspective. Through examination of relevant sources regarding the role of circumcision in conversion along with consideration of Philo of Alexandria’s depiction of Abraham as an exemplar of and for the proselyte, this project will suggest that Paul, in Rom 4:11‐ 12, uses the example of Abraham in order to explain the value of circumcision for Jews as well as for Gentiles. It will be argued, moreover, that Paul’s objections to circumcision, as found in Romans as well as in Galatians, Philippians, and 1 Corinthians, were not to the rite per se but rather to the notion that circumcision was necessary for entering the Abrahamic covenant, “becoming a Jew,” justification, salvation, spiritual transformation, protection or identity in Christ. A case will be made, moreover, that in Paul’s day there were two competing forms of circumcision and that Paul was opposed to the more radical procedure. Finally, divergences in Paul’s handling of the topic of circumcision in different letters will be explained through attention to particular audience concerns.

Připomínkou, kým jsme v Austrálii, není nikdo jiný, neţ má čechoaustralská maličkost. Zalovím provinile v kapse pro svůj Historickou loď Endeavour, která objevila Austrálii, jsem zachytila „vlastenecky“ vyzvánějící mobil.

Něco z receptu je obsaţeno v jednoduchých slovech dnes uţ ikonické písně z roku 1981. – Rodina, příroda, přátelství, tradice,… Hodnoty, které jsou blízké kaţdému dobrému člověku.

  • Disabled People and the Right to Life
    More free books @ www.BingEbook.com More free books @ www.BingEbook.com Disabled People and the Right to Life Disabled People and the Right to Life looks at disabled people’s right to life in its wider sense, discussing the right to a life that is not intolerable, a life worth living. This volume uses a human rights perspective to explore debates and challenges around what this means for disabled people. Human rights has increasingly come to be seen as a significant frame- work both to aid understanding of the experiences of those who face oppression and to underpin social, legal and political measures to counter it. The most fundamental of human rights is the right to life – a right which is enshrined in international treaties and covenants as well as in domestic law in many countries, but which cannot be taken for granted by disabled people. With perspectives from both developed and developing countries, the book chronicles attitudes and practices, critically analyses changes and explores the extent to which such changes have been driven by social as well as legal developments. Chapters explore issues such as: ● cost-effectiveness analysis and preferences ● disability rights and resuscitation ● assisted dying versus assisted living ● access to care ● the selective non-treatment of disabled babies and young children. The distinguished panel of contributors includes academics, practitioners, public officials and activists. This truly interdisciplinary book will be of interest to students and researchers of disability, law, social policy and human rights. Luke Clements is a professor in law at Cardiff University Law School, Wales, and a practising solicitor.

    Economic role of the Roman army in the province of Lower Moesia (Moesia Inferior) INSTITUTE OF EUROPEAN CULTURE ADAM MICKIEWICZ UNIVERSITY IN POZNAŃ ACTA HUMANISTICA GNESNENSIA VOL. XVI ECONOMIC ROLE OF THE ROMAN ARMY IN THE PROVINCE OF LOWER MOESIA (MOESIA INFERIOR) Michał Duch This books takes a comprehensive look at the Roman army as a factor which prompted substantial changes and economic transformations in the province of Lower Moesia, discussing its impact on the development of particular branches of the economy. The volume comprises five chapters. Chapter One, entitled “Before Lower Moesia: A Political and Economic Outline” consti- tutes an introduction which presents the economic circumstances in the region prior to Roman conquest. In Chapter Two, entitled “Garrison of the Lower Moesia and the Scale of Militarization”, the author estimates the size of the garrison in the province and analyzes the influence that the military presence had on the demography of Lower Moesia. The following chapter – “Monetization” – is concerned with the financial standing of the Roman soldiery and their contri- bution to the monetization of the province. Chapter Four, “Construction”, addresses construction undertakings on which the army embarked and the outcomes it produced, such as urbanization of the province, sustained security and order (as envisaged by the Romans), expansion of the economic market and exploitation of the province’s natural resources. In the final chapter, entitled “Military Logistics and the Local Market”, the narrative focuses on selected aspects of agriculture, crafts and, to a slightly lesser extent, on trade and services. The book demonstrates how the Roman army, seeking to meet its provisioning needs, participated in and contributed to the functioning of these industries.

Centered on the Soviet project of land reclamation in Central Asia in the 1930s, this dissertation traces the roots of Soviet utopian and dystopian fantasies of soil to the ideological and discursive traditions of the 19th century. It considers how Soviet cultural, scientific, and political figures renovated and adapted 19th-century discourse in order to articulate for their own age the national, revolutionary, and utopian values attached to soil.

  • ABSTRACT the Language of Dissent: the Defense of Eighteenth
    ABSTRACT The Language of Dissent: The Defense of Eighteenth-Century English Dissent in the Works and Sermons of James Peirce Bracy V. Hill II, Ph.D. Chairperson: William L. Pitts, Jr., Ph.D. This biographical dissertation argues that the thought of James Peirce (1674- 1726), the Presbyterian minister whose controversial theology was the catalyst for the division of Dissent in 1719, must be considered in relation to his hermeneutic of history. For Peirce, history was the telling of truth or events, but an inherently rhetorical recounting, fashioned by the historian to express the “sense” of the “original” in the language necessary to convince the audience. In this way, history proved to be malleable and increasingly corrupted the more it was distanced from the original. Peirce’s understanding of the past was linked closely to his identification of the authority and proper explication of Scripture, the integral interpretive role of reason, and the definition of the Dissenting community. In his early career, Peirce applied his theory of history to the classics and the traditions of the Church—both being subject to the sullying emendations of human invention. Late in his life, however, Peirce was convinced that this same hermeneutic of history was applicable to Scripture, which he previously considered inviolate. Despite the assertions of friends and antagonists, Peirce did not ‘convert’, but rather he logically followed his earlier commitment to a traditional hermeneutic of history. This thesis asserts that although James Peirce was primarily a polemicist, he was also a Nonconformist historian who posited definitions of Christianity and Dissent which evolved with his changing ideas.
