在大多數情況下，教會是不知不覺地停止了禱告——常常是為了吸引更多人參與教會生活。我們選擇把禱告移出教會生活的中心地帶，禱告會被小組活動所取代。我盼望本書能盡微薄之力，幫助教會重新發現聖經對禱告之重要性所作出的持續不斷的見證。本書首先呈現舊約對禱告的所有教導是如何以「求告耶和華的名」或「求神按照聖約的應許施行拯救」為基礎的。隨後進入新約，我們會清楚地看到耶穌自己如何重新定義「求告耶和華的名」，以及在祂死裡復活之後，眾使徒如何形成「奉耶穌的名禱告」的觀念，以之作為「求告耶和華的名」在新約時代的表達。本書論述，

「你要揀選生命，使你和你的後裔都得存活。且愛耶和華你的神，聽從祂的話，專靠祂」（申命記三十章19−20節）申命記裡面藏著意義深遠的神學與倫理學，這二者相互連結在一起。這卷書呼籲與上帝立約的百姓──從古代的以色列人到現代的基督徒──要聆聽上帝的話語、遵行祂的旨意，而活在祂所賜予的美好生命裡面。這卷書也是舊約的中心，因此有心要了解舊約倫理學（以及整部聖經的倫理學）的人一定要鑽研此書。蓋瑞．米勒根據全書的神學處境，對申命記倫理教導進行仔細與精闢的分析。在討論過其他學者理解申命記的途徑後，他提出自己詮釋，在書中關鍵主題──盟約、旅程、律法以及列國──的光照下處理書中的倫理思想。目次 CONTENTS聖經神學新研究系列總序作者序導言 舊約倫理學與申命記第一章 倫理學與盟約第二章 倫理與旅程第三章 倫理與律法第四章 倫理與列國第五章 倫理與人性結語 申命記中的神學與倫理學...
