Theological Journals, Part 3

Journal of Theological Studies (Vol. 9, 1908): “Cephas and Christ” the Editor meanders around on Peter’s confession at Caesarea-Philippi. He comments on the “blessedness” of the divine, revelatory, active, and soul-epistemological work of illumination and confession. The Editor is careful to note that this is sovereignly governed and given to “whomsoever” He wills to give it. Protestant Reformed Theological Journal 55,1 (Fall, 2021): in “Introduction to Church Holidays from Gereformeerd Kerkrecht,” Peter Vander Schaa discusses the Quartodecimian controversy and the confab between Polycarp of Smyrna (c. 150) and Bishop Anicteus—cordial, yet with differences. Themelios (Dec 2021): in “Raised up from the Dust: An Exploration of Hannah’s Reversal Motif in the Book of Esther as Evidence of Divine Sovereignty,” Dr. Justin Jackson discusses untethered intertextuality as a hermeneutical practice versus “biblical inner-exegesis” as a tighter hermeneutic. New Horizons (June 2022): in “SEVEN YEARS OF MINISTRY IN MONTEVIDEO,” Rev. Mark Richline outlines extremely practical evidences of God’s grace amongst his people. Wonderful missions report. Journal of Biblical and Theological Studies (5.2: 2020): in “The One Church, the Many Churches,” the Roman scholar, Eduardo Echeverria: takes up Kuyper and Berkouwer on “catholicity” and is as clear as a Newfoundland Fog. Wonky-talking. Reformed Presbyterian Theological Journal (1837): the Editor discusses the “flesh” versus “walking in the Spirit.” Southwestern Theological Journal (Fall 2021), in “THE USE OF THE OLD TESTAMENT IN THE EPISTLE TO THE JAMES, 1-2 PETER AND JUDE,” Dr. Mark Taylor elucidates Jude’s strong language against false teachers. Reformed Theological Journal (Sept 2020), in “Christian Platonism” and Christological Interpretation: A Response to Craig A. Carter, Interpreting Scripture with the Great Tradition,” Daniel J. Treier of Wheaton College invokes a Newfoundland Fog to address Dr. Craig Carter’s simple point of reading the Bible with the exegetes of the ages. Bizarre discussion. The Biblical Repertory/Princeton Review (Volume 9, Issue 1, 1837, pages 29ff.). James Waddel Archibald reviews Art. 1V.—Plea for Voluntary Societies and a Defense of the Decisions of the General Assembly of 1836 against the Strictures of the Princeton Reviewers and others.— By a member of the Assembly, New-York, John S. Taylor, 1837, pp. 187. Rev. Alexander continues the debate about the independentism of Mr. Taylor on the issue of Foreign Missions Board.
