Opis książki

The book is a model of clarity in both organization and expression. Nevertheless, more than a dozen cases of gender specific references to humanity could easily have been edited to make them inclusive. Ireland reflects ample knowledge of a broad range of literature on the parable but is clearly more at home with conventional British and American scholarship. The methodical survey of proposals in the history of interpretation presumes that answers of the past hold the key to the parable and restricts creative interpretation on Ireland's part. In fact, his conclusion is that the traditional (most common) interpretation of the parable as positive instruction to disciples on the charitable use of possessions is correct.

Uwagi:

Brzegi stron lekko zakurzone. Książka zawiera przekreśloną pieczątkę poprzedniego właściciela. Obwoluta i krawędzie nieznacznie wytarte.
