Cordially in Christ's service,
>> Brief on vol. 1, Old Testament Biblical Theology, I. Introductory
>> Matters. A Survey and Evaluation of Various Approaches:
>> Offering an introduction to Old Testament Biblical theology, this
>> book works through Oehler's descriptive theology, dispensational
>> theology, Bright's kingdom theology, Kaiser's promise theology,
>> Payne's testament theology and Kline's treaty theology. Summarizing
>> each view, it sets forth its strengths, and weaknesses. This allows
>> an interaction with the various views including how they agree or
>> disagree with Scripture and comparing them with a more satisfactory
>> covenantal approach to the Old Testament.
>> Brief on vol. 2, From Adam to Adam:
>> Interacting with Vos, Murray and Robertson, Dr. Coppes develops the
>> covenant theme (the Covenants of Redemption, Works and Grace) in
>> harmony with the Bible and the Westminster Standards. Analyzing,
>> synthesizing and exegeting a host of relevant biblical material, the
>> author is thoroughly rooted in the Biblical Theology of the
>> Scriptures, tracing and expounding the clear meanings and
>> implications of the book of Genesis in a sequential manner. Arguing
>> that the methodology of Biblical Theology neither impoverishes the
>> text (pointing out the Trinitarian and covenantal love of God in the
>> opening chapters of Genesis) nor imposes excessive Christo-typology,
>> the book balances the flow of redemption with the fountainhead of
>> the New Testament. "This timely book bridges the gap in Old
>> Testament Biblical Theology studies by incorporating the New
>> Testament explanations that the saints of old understood redemption
>> more than a prima facia reading would indicate. Starting with and
>> modifying Vos, Dr. Coppes' work incorporates the strengths of Murray
>> and Robertson with an eye on Systematic Theology. A much needed
>> work. An excellent read." -- Elder S. Mathis

Ter wille van die interessantheid:
Ons weet dat "dominee" in Afrikaans en Nederlands as die titel vir predikante in Calvinistiese kerke gebruik word. Ek verstaan ook dat die Nederlandse Gereformeerde Kerk in Amerika, die verbuiging "dominie" as predikantstitel gebruik.
Ek vermoed dat min buite Skotland weet dat laasgenoemde variant ("dominie") ook daar voorkom, waar dit meer tipies 'n skoolhoof se titel is. ('n Argaïese weergawe "domine" was vir beide predikante en onderwysers gebruik.)
Let op dat in Afrikaans *skryf* ons "dominee", maar *sê* "dominie". So ver ek kan agterkom is die *uitspraak* in Skotland soortgelyk as in Afrikaans. Kyk mens egter na die *spelvorms* "dominee" en "dominie" met 'n *Engelstalige* bril, dan lyk dit asof die Skotte "dominie" *skryf*, maar "dominee" *sê*.
Die Latynse basis is dominus, wat heer/meester beteken.
(Ek neem aan die afkorting "ds" verwys na "dominus".)
Dalk kan iemand vir ons uitvind wanneer/waar die titel die eerste keer in gebruik geneem is?
