Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - There are passages in the Bible that no sermon mentions.A command to kill every woman and child of Midian and keep the young girls 'for yourselves.' A father who burns his own daughter to keep a rash vow. Seventy thousand dead for one king's census. A woman handed to a mob and left at a doorway while heaven stays silent. For years, Arthur Tiger read these texts as the strongest evidence against faith. He did not return to belief by looking away from them.The Old Terror confronts sixteen of the darkest passages in Scripture and refuses to make any of them smooth. It sets aside the two responses that have always failed these texts. There is the defender, who reaches for a soft explanation and insults the dead to keep God comfortable. And there is the accuser, who reads a single verse aloud and rests the case. In their place the book offers a harder and more honest way: reading each passage through its nearest context, its history, and the brutal ancient world that produced it, and then through the Bible's own astonishing habit of turning against itself, through the prophets, the ethics of Jesus, and the reversals of the apostle Paul.What emerges is not a set of answers that dissolve the horror, but a road that runs through it. These texts are measured here not by the modern conscience but by the God revealed at the road's end. The darkness stands at the beginning of the journey and not at its close: the same God who meets a violent age in its own violent speech is bending that speech, across a thousand years, toward a God revealed not in conquest but in a man dying with his arms open.Honest about what cannot be resolved, and unwilling to trade a beautiful sentence for a true one, The Old Terror is written for believers who have wrestled with these passages in private, and for skeptics who have used them to walk away. It takes the very stones that most tempt us to throw the Bible out and asks whether they might be the cornerstone.For readers who suspect that mystery and uncertainty are not a threat to faith, but a path to genuine wisdom. …
