{"product_id":"written-to-serve","title":"Written To Serve","description":"The use of Scripture in 1 Peter has been subject to much extensive analysis in the last thirty years. In \u003ci\u003eWritten to Serve \u003c\/i\u003eBenjamin Sargent offers an up to date and comprehensive analysis of how 1 Pet 1.10-12 offers a ‘hermeneutic,’ providing an insight into how Scripture is interpreted in the letter. Sargent also argues that the relation of 1.10-12 has been misunderstood. Rather than offering a Christological hermeneutic with a focus on the suffering and glories of Christ, Sargent asserts that the primary importance of 1.10-12 is its orientation of the prophetic witness towards the eschatological community as an act of service. Similarly, rather than offering a theological narrative of continuity between Israel and Christian communities, 1.10-12 may be seen to suggest a narrative of profound discontinuity in which the community in the present is elevated above God’s people of the past.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54222511833432,"sku":"9780567672452","price":40.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780567672452.jpg?v=1770273918","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/written-to-serve","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
