About this title

Synopsis

This book acknowledges that sprinkling or pouring are equally valid as dipping in the ritual of baptism. The author offers a thorough examination of the history and meaning of baptism, demonstrating that its origins are not exclusively tied to the act of submerging the entire body under water. The author carefully analyzes the Greek word used in the New Testament to refer to baptism, elucidating its broader definition as immersing in water or applying water. Drawing upon Old Testament examples, the book reveals that the act of baptism in the Jewish tradition entailed both sprinkling and pouring, underscoring the interchangeable usage of these modes of baptism in the early church. While acknowledging the historical prevalence of dipping as a method of baptism, the author emphasizes that adherence to this method is not a strict requirement in the Christian faith, given the broader interpretation of the word for baptism. This book not only sheds light on the flexible nature of baptismal practice in the history of Christianity but also encourages readers to embrace a broader understanding of this fundamental ritual.

Store Description

Seit �ber 30 Jahren handeln wir mit B�chern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter B�cher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen B�cher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderb�cher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten B�chern oder Haushaltsaufl�sungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbest�nde von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die M�glichkeit, gro�e Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbest�nde werden von uns professionell auf Qualit�tsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgf�ltig f�r den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken B�chern ein zweites Leben.
