About this product
Product Information
The theme of this book is that the biblical canon, read as a whole, calls for mission, and mission emerges from and always has need of the biblical canon for its witness in and to the world. The Bible, from Genesis to Revelation is, according to Beeby, a "handbook of mission."He expresses concern over certain critical approaches to the Bible that identify "authentic" texts and ignore other texts because of their dubious origins or value. Still, he acknowledges differences and difficulties within the Bible but suggests that it be seen and a whole, in its entirety, as a "unity of unities." Specifically, he proposes the Exodus theme as a way of understanding both the canonical unity of the Bible and Christianity's mission in today's world, a mission that must include interfaith dialogue.The canon moves from creation to new creation, Beeby writes, and this movement of renewal, restoration, and redemption is through a sent (missio) nation, son, and community.H. Dan Beeby has served as a missionary in China and Professor of Old Testament at Taiwan Theological College. He is the author of Grace Abounding: A Commentary on the Book of Hosea, and is currently Consultant to the British and Foreign Bible Society.

Reviews
"...well written and suited for scholars and students of mission and theology. Beeby's treatment of the Exodus, the social and political dimensions of mission, and interfaith dialogue are particularly insightful..." --Bob Lewis, reviewing for Stone-Campbell Journal, Spring 2000, "...well written and suited for scholars and students of mission and theology. Beeby's treatment of the Exodus, the social and political dimensions of mission, and interfaith dialogue are particularly insightful..." -Bob Lewis, reviewing for Stone-Campbell Journal, Spring 2000, "This book is well worth reading. Much Christian theology has broken the Bible down into small fragments that barely seem relevant to today "s world. Canon and Mission is a good step towards putting the pieces back together." --Inside Out, "This book is well worth reading.

It’s a shame the book had a big dent, probably from the transport.
But besides that very happy, many thanks
