1 Book Revews MULTPURPOSE TOOLS FOR BBLE STUDY. By Frederck W. Danker. Concorda Publshng House, St. Lous, Cloth. $3.75. Ths s a welcome book, the frst of ts knd n our crcles. t fulflls a basc need n pastors' lbrares throughout the country, because t names and llustrates the use of the prncpal tools for fundamental bblcal scholarshp. We use t n our semnary class n nterpretaton to acquant students wth exegetcal method, textual crtcsm, and bblography. A few comments wll, we hope, llustrate the nature of ts content: t s well that the author begns wth a dscusson of concordances for, strctly speakng, proper exegetcal method begns here. Wth the advent of many new Bble versons hs analytcal dscusson of the Nestle text s most helpful. The pont s well taken that the parallel references n Nestle's text are often more correct than those found n our Englsh Bbles, and that the old Greek dvsons are more relable than Stephen Langton's tradtonal chapter dvsons. n hs treatment of many Bble verses the author at tmes offers some mghty tantalzng bts of exegess, although we doubt that the omsson of "and couches" n Mark 7:4 confrms a "belef n the wdespread practce of mmerson" (p. 23). What s sad about Coptc Papyr s new and nstructve (p. 72). The chaptcr on modern Bble versons s worth the prce of the book and we apprecate hs far apprasal of both KJV and RSV. The author's evaluaton of Phllps' translaton agrees wth our belef that t "free-wheels" too much and that "t would be much more dffcult to nfer the orgnal text from Phllps' renderng than from any of the other translatons, or versons, mentoned n ths chapter," and that "the translaton s not desgned for lturgcal use" (p. 188f.). An outstandng new feature whch makes thc volume extremely valuable for the nterpreter s the chapter on the use of the Septuagnt, a study whch s properly comng nto ts own n our tme. On the negatve sde, there may be too much credence gven to modern crtcal theores, as n the statement that certan passages "suggest how the evangelsts under the gudance of the Sprt used the materals as they were shaped n the vared work of the church-n her proclamaton, polemcs, nstructon, and worshp" (p. 31). At tmes the book reads slowly and loses tself n detal. The selecton of commentares seems to le too much n one drecton. But thcse few crtcsms should by no means detract from the great value of ths book nor from the assstance we personally have derved from t; t s really a storehouse of nformaton and nstructon for the nterpretaton of Holy Scrpture. We lke ts many concrete examples and llustratons of exegess, a sort of a "how-todo-t-yourself" approach. Dffcult tec:lncal subjects are made easy. After one has read and used the book he understands why the tern] "multpurpose" s n the ttle. The pastor who has been n the feld a few years and wshes to refresh hs memory regardng versons, lexcons, concordances, textual crtcsm, etc., wth a host of nterestng esegetcal sdelghts thrown n, has at last found hs book.

2 Book Revews 37 t s certan to gve hm some fresh approaches n hs sermon preparaton and Bble class work. Lorman M. Petersen THE WORD OF THE LORD GROWS. By Martn H. Franzmann. Concorda Publshng House, St. Lous, x and 324 pages. Cloth. $4.00. Dollar for dollar ths may well be the best book bargan on the market today-excellent bndng, superor content, and a prce that s astonshngly reasonable. f the readershp of The Sprngfelder numbers about sx thousand, we sncerely hope that some sx thousand orders for ths superb ntroducton to the New Testament wll be addressed to the publsher forthwth. Here s Bblcal scholarshp ;! ts best, ~eldng nothng to ntellectuals111 on the one hand, nor to obscurantsm on the other. Dr. Franzmann's basc premses nclude not only the convcton that the New Testament must bc studed hstorcally, btlcause "t has ts pont of orgn... n human hstory," gettng "ts form and contours from hstory," but also the fath that ths hstorcally condtoned word s a "dvne word," a word that has "hstory-makng power," a word that s a "dynamc and creatve personal Po\ver of God at work among men." Above all, he nssts that properly "the hstorcal s a means to a hgher cnd, the end namely, that we hear the New Testament speak to us as the lvng voce of God no~v." After an ntroductory chapter n whch he establshes the theologcal sgnfcance of the hstorcal character of the New Testament word (as ths s llumnated by the book of Acts), hc employs ten chapters to dscuss the ndvdual books of the New Testament, takng them up n more or less chronologcal order. n each case he offers an extensve outlne of the contents of the book under dscusson. At tmes, ~crhaps, these outlnes become too extensve (the one for 11 Cornthans, for example, runs to better than eght pagcs; the one for James, seven); but they all have the vrtue of avodng the snappy, allteratve, artfcal constructons such as are favored by to0 many wrters n ths feld. Those who have already read products of Dr. Franzmann's pc11 or have heard hm n person wll not be surprsed to fnd that ths book, too, s rch n gems of thought n whch keen nsght s wedded to vvd phrase. Space permts but a few examples to whet the appette. Of 1 Cornthans: "The letter s for us dffcult, an angel to be wrestled wth f we would reccvc a blessng." Of Romans: "Pontng up the value of ths letter s lke commentng on the depth of the Grand Canyon." Of the Synoptc Problem: "The three Synoptc Gospels loom n large and mysterous grandcur, lke three great mountans, before the eyes of the church. The Lord of the church has gven us n our generaton abundant materals for the study of ther geography; -e has gven us practcally none for the study of ther geology. Perhaps our man busness s geography, not geolog~."

3 On questons of authorshp Dr. Franzmann plumps fnally for the tradtonal ascrptons, though only after a far and sympathetc presentaton of the most sgnfcant counter vews. He reckons serously wth questons of textual crtcsm, allowng that the adulteress percope and the Marcan endngs are probably not authentc. He faces up to the unque chaacter of the Fourth Gospel consdered as narratve, descrbng t as "nterpretatvely recountng the words and deeds of Jesus;... the words and deeds are freely selected..., freely arranged, and told n stylzed form, wth one am only: to proclam what Jesus s and sgnfes.... pt The fnal chapter deals wth the growth of the New Testament as a collecton of books and the ultmate formaton of the Canon. Ths chap ter, too, lke all the others, exhbts n masterful fashon the sound, exangelcal good sense and judgment of the author, a scholar who s truly not 1 ashamed of the Gospel of Chrst, nether of ts savng content, nor yet of ts external form-whch lke the Lord to whom t testfes s n ths lfe always cruce tectum. RcJznrd Jungkunh THE GOSPEL ACCORDNG TO ST. MATTHEW. By Suzanne de Detrch. Translated by Donald G. Mller. John Knox Press, Rchmond, Va., pages. Cloth. $2.00. Mlle. de Dctrch was born n Alsace, studed at Lausanne, has served n the French Chrstan Student Movement and as resdent lecturer on Bble study at the Ecumencal nsttute of the World Councl of Churches n, Bossey, Swtzerland. She s author of God's Unfoldng Purpose and the popular Wtnessng C~nznzunt~. Ths partcular volume s part of a seres ("The Layman's Bble Commentary") begun n 1959, coverng the entre Bblc. The seres s beamed, at the laty, and Mlle. de Detrch s to be commended for her smple, straghtfonvard style. No person of normal ablty wll have dffculty wth ths book. Lkewse, the book s short, devotng ts attenton to matters of prme, mportance, and sayng a great deal n ts 152 pages. The author s to be commended too for her belef n mracles, predctve prophecy, the Vrgn Brth, the Trnty, the Resurrecton, the Transfguraton, and the hstorcal nature of Chrst's lfe here on carth. All of ths s to the good. On some ponts one could ask for greater detal and clarty, such as on the Resurrecton. On other ponts, one must agree wth the author. She thnks Cp. 9) that Matthew's use of the 0. T. seems a "lttle forced to the modern readcr." She does not thnk Matthew the Publcan wrote the Gospel (pp ), but rathcr that the Gospel s the work of someone unknown who may have used somc oral work produced orgnally by Matthew. Jn ths ve~v, of course, she s showng that she s keepng up wth the latest vews on thc subject, but she has not one shred of evdence from the early church and almost nothng pror to the 19th century. Her vews on the Sacraments, whle very brefly expressed, arc typcally Reformed.

4 Book Revews n short, ths book has ts good and bad ponts. t s not of great value for the clergy, and t seems that there are several better commentares for the laty. J. A. 0. Preus ROMANS, FRST CORNTHANS, SECOND CORNTHANS. Kenneth J. Foreman. John Knox Press. Rchmond. 152 pages. $2.00. Author Foreman n hs ntroducton to Romum says, "Wrtng a commentary on a book whose author s dead and gone s a rsky busness." We mght add that wrtng a commentary on three major epstles n the scope of 150 pages, and one whch everyone can understand, s not only rsky but attemptng the mpossble. Yet "mpossble" as t sounds, we enjoyed readng ths commentary. t has many penetratng nsghts and s wrtten n a "homey" style that the layman wll enjoy. The ntroductons to the three letters are especally good-they make the letters corn alve for the reader. The author explans all techncal terms and uses as few as possble hmself. llustratons whch really llustrate are numerous. Perhaps the outstandng feature-and n ths nstance t s not just for laymen-s that t gves a salutary perspectve, or brd's-eye vew, of the contents and tran of thought of each letter, somethng helpful for Lutherans who often read the Bble n (not "to") peces. To read these great epstles n the sectons suggested by the outlne and then to read Forman's runnng commentary, whch does not bury one n detal, would ndeed be a splendd and new experence for every Chrstan. Some samples of the author's pleasant ngenuty: On dolatry-"whatever you can't lve wthout, that s your god. Whatever takes frst place wth you, whatever you try to lease frst of all, whatever you sacrfce everythng else for, that s your dol" (p. 23). On a snner-"lke a man who aants to be reconcled to hs wfe but perversely keeps on dong and sayng nsultng thngs that only drve her further away" (p. 28). On Jew and Gentle-"~n adopted chld s a chosen chld... an adopted son mght have more of the father's sprt and mght to carry on hs work better than the natural son" (p. 44). On fath and lfe-"chrst's work for you s snshcd. Chrst's work n you s not fnshed n your lfetme. Chrstan lvng s no take-t-or-leave-t extra, t s welded to the Gospel'' (p. 52). Agan-"The Cornthans were deadend recevers of grace; lke babes, they thought only n terms of 'What do get out of t?' Paul and other apostles were outgvers, sharers, bulders, workers" (p. 78). On the mnstry- "Apollos and Peter and Paul are lke workmen on a farm; but t s God's farm, not thers" (p. 72). Agan-"There are people both outsde and nsde the Church who have a suspcon that the mnster has to say what he says because he s pad for t. Paul would rather be n a poston where everyone would know that he never receved a penny from any man" (p. 90). On the Cornthan Communon-"The pcture here remnds us more of a badly organzed Sunday school pcnc than a Communon servce" (p. 95). On Chrstan unty-"t s no more possble to be a lone ndependent

5 Chrstan apart from the Church than t s for an ear or an eye to be a lone ndependent ear or eye, wth no body. An eye n a head s prceless; an eye n a glass jar s a curosty" (p. 100). Such commentares are understood by everyone, and mght serve as a source of sermon thoughts and pctures as well! But one should not place ths commentary nto the hands of the ay man wthout some crtcal gudance. There are some msleadng theologcal statements on justfcaton and the Old Testament, on the Sacraments (they are consdered only symbols-the Lord's Supper s a "feast of memory and hope"), and on the nspraton of the Bble (Paul arrves at many of hs 1 vews by ndependent thnkng nstead of beng nspred by God). But we lked the freshness and speed of ths lttle commentary-t really fts our jet age. Practcally, we can envson t beng used for prvate Bble readng. for famly devotons, for sermon llustratons, for Bble class rvork, for a ncn and fresh approach to Bble study as a whole-the book method. L. M. Petersen - JUDGES, RUTH, SAMUEL AND 1 SAMUEL. By Erc C. Rust. John Knox Press, pages. Cloth. $ f Ths s one of the Old Testament volumes n "The Layman's Bble Commentary" (Vol. 6). whch has been appearng snce October, To date, Geness, Hosea through Jonah, Psalms, Jeremah, Lamentatons and Ezekel, Danel and an ntroductory volumc have been publshed. "The Layman's Bble Commentary" s desgned as a non-techncal gude for the layman n hs personal study of the Bble. The readers of these commentares are to use ther own personal Bblcs and thus no Bblcal text s furnshed. However, the basc text used by the wrters of ths com-! mentary seres s Thc Revsed Standard Verson. The author of Volumc 6 s Erc Rust, at present professor of Chrstan apologetcs at the Southern Baptst Theologcal Semnary n Lousvlle, Ken- 1 tucky. For each of the Bblcal books Dr. Rust has gven an ntroducton,, an outlne, and a commentary. n the ntroducton he has dscussed the hs- torcal background, the lterary structure, and the theologcal thought set forth by each book. The largest amount of space js devoted to the commentary proper. Tradtonally, Judges, Ruth, and 1 Samuel are classfed as hstorcal books, although wth the excepton of Ruth thcy are found wth the Former Prophets n the Hebrew Old Testament arrangement of the canon. The hstorcal events related n these four books extend from the death of Joshua tll near the end of the lfe of Davd. At varous places n ths commentary, Rust questons the hstorcal accuracy of the facts recorded n these four bboks. Regardng Judges, he asserts: "We need to remember that we are dealng n ths book wth the dawn of sraelte hstory. Ths was manly preserved n oral form durng the early perod, and thus t rases real hs-

6 Book Revews 4 1 mca1 questons. But what matters s ts theologcal sgnfcance, what God was seekng to teach through these events, of whose detals we cannot be altogether certan" (p. 12). The events that are recorded n Judges, he clams, may go back to the twelfth and eleventh centures B. C., some may be even earler f one postulates Hebrew groups n Palestne pror to the man nvason of Palestne. The Book of Ruth s beleved to have been wrtten n the fourth century B. C., although the hstorcal condtons descrbed are of earler provenance. The purpose of Ruth "was... to preserve a tradton that Davd's royal lne had Moabte blood n ts vens, and to emphasze the true unveralsm of srael's fath, n whch even Moabtes could share and share sgnfcantly" (p. 70). The Book of Judges and the present form of and 1 Samuel are consdered the product of an edtor or edtors, governed by the prophetc vew of hstory as found n Deuteronomy. Dfferent accounts of the same hstorcal event are found n successon n the Books of Samuel. Ths makes t necessary for the student to determne whch account really records the actual happenng. Accordng to Rust, hstorcal contradctons need not dsturb the Bblcal reader for "the man emphass was on what the Lvng God was sayng n hstory, and they were nterested n events at the level of revelaton" (p. 78). The vews on Bblcal ntroducton, the nature of nspraton and the heremeutcs of Professor Rust are those espoused by neo-orthodoxy. Many of hs postons n these areas, therefore, are not acceptable to hs revewer nor to many readers of ths journal. Although the commentary s bref, the author has succeeded n wrtng a compact volume wth up-to-date nformaton on hstorcal and archaeologcal matters. Raymond F. Surb ~rrg PAUL AND HS RECENT NTERPRETERS. By E. Earle Ells. Wm. B. Eerdmans Publshng Company, Grand Rapds, Mch., pages. Paper. $1.75. Ths useful lttle work s wrtten wth the modest but commendable am of provdng the serous New Testament student wth a "prolegomenon" n the area of Paulne studes whch wll supply a convenent summary of research wthout beng unhelpfully bref nor lackng n gudance for evaluatng the frequently dvergent results of research. Postvely, t ams to make the reader aware of the crtcal ssues whch are rased by any serous hstorcal approach to the Paulne corpus and "wth that awareness enable hm to measure hs exegess n the lght of the crtcal concerns." mplct, though never obtrusve, throughout the dscusson appcars to be the author's personal commtment to the Chrstan fath, also to Holy Scrpture and specfcally the Paulne wrtngs as the source and norm of that fath. After sketchng the chef contrastng vews on Paulne thought, as re-

7 fleeted partcularly n the two man areas of contemporary studes, Relgons. geschchte and eschatology, the author devotes specal attenton to two specfc questons whch llumnate the general summary, namely, the meston of how Cornthans 5: 1-10 may be understood to embody the h~ture of Paulne eschatology, and the queston of the authorrhp of the Pastoral Epstles. n treatng the Cornthans passage Ells algns hmself wth the corporate, realst nterpretaton of Cullmann and J. A. T. Robnson-though not uncrtcally. Also, he breaks some new ground n ths dscusgon, suggestng, for example, that the "tent-house" of 1 Cornthans 5: 1 "envdons prmarly not the ndvdual self (although ths s ncluded) but the whole en Adam corporety whch stands under death." Sgnfcant too s hs mderstandng of the "nakedness" n verse 3 as the lack of the "whte garb of rghteousness" whch alone can cover our "shame" at the parousa. The fnal chapter makes a strong case for the lkelhood that the present mnorty vew-whch regards the Pastorals as authentc-represents n fact the trend n the drecton of whch Paulne scholarshp as a whole wll presently move. Rchard Jungkuntz BARTH. By A. D. R. Polman, translated by Calvn D. Freeman. Modern Thnkers Seres: Davd H. Freeman, edtor. The Baker Book House, Grand Rapds, Mch., pages. Paper. $ The mportance of Karl Barth n contemporary theology s beyond queston. Much of what goes on n the relgous world today s ted n some way to the renowned theologan of Basel. That s a trbute whch speaks for tself. But whle all agree on the greatness of Barth's nfluence, not all apprase hs work and place n theology una vwe. Loud and extravagant are the blessngs spoken upon hs name n some quarters, but n others he s sharply rapped on the knuckles, though usually not wthout fant prase. t s the latter posture whch A. D. R. Polman, a Reformed theologm who teaches at Kampen Theologcal Semnary n the Netherlands, has adopted n ths monograph on Barth. Evncng ntmate and ncsve knowledge of all of Barth's wrtngs, Polman s prepared to express hs apprecaton for the major role Barth has played n leadng much of the Protestant world back from the theology of pous self-conscousness to a concern for the revelaton of God n Holy Wrt and the dety of Chrst, especally Hs centralty n all of Chrstan fath. But Polman s not one to go along wth thox theologans who are ready to place Barth among the tmeless theologcd gants of the past, lke Luther and Calvn. As a matter of fact, he s satsfed to conclude wth the wager that "the Bblcal theology of Calvn... wfl be alve n the church of Chrst long after the mghty system of Barth has become hstory" (p. 68).

8 Book Heveu:~ 4 3 Polman argues a strong case on the bass of three representatve areas n Barth's teachng, the doctrnes of Scrpture, of predestnaton, and of creaton. Polman fnds that the ambguty n Barth's teachng on Scrpture, callng the Bble, on the one hand, "the Word of God," and on the other hand,, "a product of a near Eastern trbal relgon," results from the Swss theologan's "phloso~hcal treatment of the concept of revelaton" (pp ). 1 Tls appears to be a good and vald judgment. "To characterze Scrpture! 1 as only a wtness to revelaton s n conflct wth Scrpture's wtness to tself," Polman contnues (p. 25). The chef crtcsm whch Polman feels / compelled to drect aganst Barth's theology of Scrpture, therefore, s that ( t s not Scrptural but a theologcal construct and "pure fcton" (p. 29). The longest secton s devoted to Barth's volumnous treatment of predestnaton. Here we fnd the vews of one Reformed theologan who adheres to the classc Calvnstc doctrne on electon ptted aganst another, the watchman on the Rhne, who opposes vgorously every thought of an absolute decree whch would elect partcular persons to salvaton and others to damnaton. The Lutheran reader wll be nstructed by ths dspute whch stll goes on among Reformed theologans on what s ndeed a knotty queston. Labelng Barth a "supralapsaran," Polman contends that "the horrble decree of Calvn s a hundred tmes more preferable than a Barthan de- scrpton whch overlooks the real dffculty" (p. 55). The total faure of Barth's deas on predestnaton can be shown no more vvdly, Polman holds, than when he makes "the betrayal of Judas a necessary lnk n the plan of redemptonyy (p. 55). Barth has also wrtten extensvely on creaton, attemptng here, as n all of hs theology, to preserve hs Chrstomonstc ~rncple. Accordng to ths he argues that the creaton of God s really knowabe only to fath, fath whch s grounded n Chrst. Once agan Polman's chef crtcsm of Barth s that he s not Scrptural n hs exegess of Bblcal texts that deal wth creaton. The result s that "a ~revously establshed scheme s mposed upon Scrpture" (p. 61). Hardy lght readng for the casua reader, Polman's analyss wll provde a very useful abrdgement for the person who s nterested n havng more than a casual acquantance wth Barth's thnkng on three sgnfcant topcs n Chrstan dwtrne. E. F. Klug MARTN LUTHER AND GNATUS LOYOLA: SPOKESMEN FOR TWO WORLDS OF BELEF. By Fredrch Rchter. Translated from German by Leonard F. Zwnger. The Newman Press, Westmnster, Maryland, pages. Cloth. $ Recent publcatons of Luther's works, notably the projected fftp-sx volume Amercan Edton ~ublshed by Concorda Publshng House and Muhlenberg Press and Wlhern Pauck's defntve translaton of Luther's Lectures on Romans delvered n , publshed n the scholarl~

9 Lbrary of Chrstan Classcs seres, as well as a number of more or less sue. cessful attempts on the part of Protestant theologans to understand and nterpret modem Roman Catholcsm (cf. Wnthrop S. Hudson, Undastcmd. ng Roman Catholcsm; Jaroslav Pelkan, The Rddle of Roman Catholcsm) demonstrate a lvely nterest n both the Protestant hertage and the thought world and structure of Roman Catholcsm. Fredrch Rchter's present study, orgnally publshed n Germany under the ttle Martn Luther zrnd gnatus von Loyola (1954), promses to make a postve contrbuton to the contemporary dalogue between the Protestant and the Roman Catholc communons by focusng attenton on the two best remembered representatves of the opposng Chrstan tradtons of the, Reformaton era. The Lutheran reader's nterest n the work may be en- hanced by the fact that the author served for twenty-fve years n the Lutheran mnstry before becomng a convert to the Roman Catholc fold. n the course of the work, Rchter attempts to sketch the outlnes of the formatve nfluences of the Reformaton era, descrbe the medeval hertage of the Catholc Church, analyze the converson experences of Luther and Loyola, present Martn Luther as the Reformer and gnatus Loyola as the Restorer of the Church, and renterpret the two worlds of belef. n hs attempts, however, the author demonstrates that hs work s more the confesson of one who has entered the Roman Catholc Church as a convert than a well balanced hstorcal study based on scholarly research. The fact s that Rchter has smply faled to understand Luther and the Lutherans (t scems to the revewer that the author has also faled to record the facts relatng to the founder of the Socety of Jesus), as s evdent from the followng lnes : Luther wll not accept the deal of holness n the Catholc Church, because he refuses to beleve that human bengs can become sants. Thus, Luther's doctrne on justfcaton becomes a theology of "makebeleve." Accordng to Lutherans, lve n the State of grace, as f were justfed, but f carefully analyze myself, must say that am not justfed (p. 88). Perhaps the author has summarzed hs own theologcal orentaton when he states that "The true doctrne of justfcaton through good works he (Luther) opposes wth the doctrne that fath alone justfes... " (p. 24). Although Rchter observes that at frst Luther "was a heretc aganst hs wll" (p. 241) and acknowlcdges that "Luther calls us to repentance" (P. 242). t seems that the prophets who proclamed the doom of Roman Catholc hstorography as represented by Henrch Denfle (Luther and Luthertlttrm) and Hartmann Grsar (Luther) have spoken too soon. n farness to contelnporary Roman Catholc scholarshp t must be ponted out that Fredrch Rchter does not measure up to the best representatves of Roman Catholc hstorcal research (cf. Joseph Lortz, De Reformaton n Deutschland). Fredrch Rchter's Martn Luther a~zd gnntus Lqyoa s not an orgnal contrbuton to scholarshp. The book, however, s readable. t stmulates as well as rrtates the reader, be he a well-nformed theologcal student,

Beno 0. Kada CATHOLCS AND PROTESTANTS, SEPARATED BROTHERS. By Leon Crstan and Jean Rllet. Translated from the French by Joseph. Holland, S. J., and Glbert V. Tutung, A4. A. The Newman Press, Westmnster, Maryland, pages. Cloth. $3.95. Ths book bearng the mprm poust and the mprmatur of the Roman Catholc Church s an exchange of letters between Leon Crstan, a canon of the Roman Catholc Church, and professor at the Catholc nsttute of Lyons, France, and Jean Rllet, pastor of the French parsh of Zurch. The dalogue s part of ecumencal dscussons whch are at present takng place throughout the Clrstan world, and nvolve not only many dfferent knds of Protestants, but at tmes also Roman Catholcs. Both Chrstan and Rllet are deeply convnced of the scandal of a dvded church. The dalogue at all tmes moves on a very hgh plane wthout n the least sacrfcng candor and clarty. Chrstan admts (p. 59) that n a sense the Reformed are Catholcs, namely, by mplcaton. However, he chdes the Reformed for ther vew on the Sacraments, and presses the clams of the herarchc church. He s convnced of the need for an nfallble church, and he s sure that the Roman Catholc Church flls that need. Aganst Calvnstc determnsm he mantans the need of the acceptance of free wll as condtonng all doctrne. Rllet on hs part challenges the dea that n the Roman Catholc Church Scrpture and tradton reman n harmony. He blasts the logc whch derves the apostolc successon from Matthew 16 : 18. He severely crtczes Sant Augustne for hs treatment of the Donatsts. Both Rllet and Crstan appear to desrc earnestly the reunon of the Church. Rllet sees the route to organc unty brstlng wth apparently nsurmountable obstacles. He tells Crstan bluntly that there wll be no surrender of Protestants to the Roman Catholc Church. He asks for equalty between the two. He nssts that the Reformed are not heretcs but separated brothers. He asks for complete and unversal admsson of lberty of conscence and worshp on the part of Rome. n ths connecton he wrtes, "t s beyond me to exaggerate the dscomfture whch remans among my corelgonsts today, who are most desrous to come to an agreement, when they notce that the Vatcan seems to operate on two levels and to clam for Catholc mnortes the rghts whch they refuse to Protestants n Span and n Colomba. We can justfably attrbute to t enough nfluence to make her voce heard n Madrd and n Bogota. Recent concordats gve our fathful n those countres the poston of outcasts" (p. 141). Canon Crstan on hs part can conceve of unty only when t becomes organc reunon of the churches wth Roman Catholcsm on Catholc terms. He sees ecumensm as a praseworthy but powerless effort, whch can never satsfy Roman Catholcs.

11 Anyone who desres to see clearly the real dffculty whch the ecumel cal movement faces when Protestants and Catholcs confront each other ths connecton ought to read ths book. Fred Kramer THE CHURCHES AND THE CHURCH, A STUDY OF ECUMENS~ By Bernard Leemng, S. J. London, and The Newrnan Pres Westmnster, Md., pages. Cloth. $6.50. Ths book by Father Leemng, who s Professor of Dogmatc Theoog at Heythrop College, s an ndcaton of the nterest whch the herarchy the Roman Catholc Church s takng n the Ecumencal Movement. t furthermore a trbute to the care wth whch every phase of the Ecumenca Movement s studed n learned Catholc crcles and to the dlgence wt1 whch the basc prncples of Roman Catholcsm are brought to bear ox every queston related to ths movement. The author defnes the Ecumenca Movement as a trend to unted acton, wth oneness as the end and am. He presents also a hstory of the movement together wth nformaton on the manner n whch the movement operates and s governed. He sets forth the reasons for the rse of the Ecumencal Movement, both on the msson feld and at home, where the dsunty of the churches offends those to whom the Church's efforts are drected and tends to make Chrstans more and more a dwndlng mnorty relatve to world populaton. Father Leemng ponts out that the Ecumencal Movement, whch began n an era of doctrnal confuson and ndfferentsm, has moved more and more to a real revval of confessonal conscousness. The movement s seekng sold theologcal foundatons. The World Councl of Churches, whch s the nstrument of the Ecumencal Movement, s seekng the death of the separate denomnatons, whch are to become unnecessary as ecumensm accomplshes ts purpose of reuntng the Church. n chapter four Father kernng sets forth the stresses and strans wthn the Ecumencal Movement whch arse from theologcal dfferences wthn the varous Protestant groups. Chapter fve dscusses the atttude of ecumensts toward the Roman Catholc Church, and reunon wth t. n the sueceedng chapter Father Leemng sets forth the Catholc atttude toward ecumensm. Ths s really the heart of the book. t s undenable that Father Leemng brngs understandng, and to a certan extent sympathy, to hs dscusson of ecumensm. He uses the expresson, employed also by other Catholcs today, of "separated brethren" for non-catholc Chrstans. He makes clear that to date the Roman Catholc Church refuses to jon the ecumencal encounter n an offcal way. Pope Pus X courteously declned the nvtaton to the ecumencal meetng at Lausanne n However, Roman Catholc observers have been present at meetngs of the World Councl of Churches n 1937 and agan n Rome s not ready to speak fnally on ths movement so long as t has not reached ts full de-

12 Book Revews velopment. Father Leemng s well aware of the ponts of controversy whch are most troublesome for Protestants. Protestants accept truths because they are taught n Scrpture; Roman Catholcs accept teachngs because the Church teaches them. The veneraton pad to the Vrgn Mary, so dear to the heart of a Roman Catholc, s an abomnaton to Protestants. The offcal Roman Catholc poston s that the Roman Catholc Church cannot beneft by takng part n the Ecumencal Movement at ths stage, because the Roman catholc Church beleves that t already has what the Ecumencal Movement s strvng to attan, namely, the unty of the Church. n chapter seven Father Leemng sets forth the Catholc prncples relatve to ecumensm. They are as follows: 1) The Roman Catholc Church clams to be and s the only Holy Catholc Apostolc Church founded by Jesus Chrst. 2) The Catholc Church beleves that Chrst wlled Hs church to have such a vsble unty that men can see n t a sgn of Hs nvsble presence n the church. 3) The Roman Catholc Church has a vsble and manfest unty; the vsblty ncludes outward professon of the same fath by all rnembcrs, the same seven sacraments, obedence by all to the vsble head of the church, and the contnuty of the bshops not only n materal successon, but also n full sacramental and doctrnal successon. 4) The Roman Catholc Church does not seek unty for herself but she s oblged by her commsson from Chrst to try, wth Chrstan zeal and prudencc, to draw others nto the unty whch Chrst has gven and preserved. 5) The Roman Catholc Church has a duty to her own members, to dssdent fellow Chrstans and to the world to assert her clam of unqueness, unty, and vsblty, and not to allow t to be obscured. f all ths sounds arrogant, and ntransgent, Father Leemng mantans that t s msleadng to say that Rome's only atttude toward separated brethren s to demand submsson. He mantans that she nvtes them to recognze Chrst n Hs unversal church, and spontaneously to brng to Hm all ther gfts and all the good whch they possess. The only submsson, he mantans, s submsson to charty and to the obedence of fath. Father Leemng's book s wrtten n a polte, and one mght say, chartable tone. But he leaves no doubt that whle the Catholc Church s wllng to he frendly and chartable toward Protestants, she s not wllng to budge one nch from her hstorcal poston, that she s the Church of Chrst on earth, and that any reunon of the churches must proceed on her terms, whch nclude acceptance of all Roman Catholc dogmas, and of the Pope as the nfallble head of the church. There are a number of valuable appendces at the end of the book. We call partcular attenton to Appendx 11, pp , whch gves the nstructon from the Holy Offce to Local Ordnares on the Ecumencal Movement. Ths gves n offcal form the prncples set forth wth warmth and skll by Father Leemng n The Churches and The Church. Fred Kramer

He s a pastor of a comparatjvel! large suburban parsh (and accordng to all reports does blessed and sue cessful work n ths capacty); he serves as one of the edtors of &, Chrstan Century; he lectures frequently and n dverse places; he wrta books wth the ease wth whch the rest of us mortals prepare a short and unorgnal conference paper. Hs latest work, a paperback volume, presents a hstory of Amercan freethought and an analyss of organzed Chrstanty's reacton to ths form of opposton. Marty beleves that the churches acqutted themselves kvell n ther conflct wth Amercan unbelef n ts varous forms (desm, sceptcsm, agnostc. sm, and athesm): "Wth vastly more complcated ssues at stake nvolvng the survval and extenson of the Chrstan fath, one may hope that the hers of those who pursued the nfdel gve at least as good an account of themselves as dd ther fathers." The author has two serous msgvngs regardng the churches: One: nfdelty havng passed from the battle scene, does organzed Chrstanty today recognze who the enemy s? Two: Assumng the churches know where the battle les, do they have the resources for effectve combat? The falure of the author to dscuss the nfluence of the novels of Snclar Lews represent-n our opnon-a serous omsson n a book presented as a thorough treatment of Amercan sceptcsm. Too (and ths mag reflcct our provncal background), to refer to Brann, the conoclast, only n a quote from Wll Herberg, s slghtng a colorful character who was the "har shrt" of the Southern Baptsts for a number of years.

Punched looseleaf paper. Prce not gven. The workbook by Dr. Ralph Gehrke of Concorda Teachers College, Rver Forest, llnos, was not wrtten n an vory tower; t contans no vague and abstract statements about worshp, lturgy and musc. On the contrary, t offers some down to earth, practcal and stmulatng materals and suggestons, as the ttle states, for plannng our worshp sences.

14 r : : prof. Gehrke sets the stage for hs materals by b t pontng up the mportance of plannng the servce. "A meanngful church musc program," he nssts, "must be constructed wth two defnte factors n mnd: the church year and the tradtonal structure of the dvne servce wth ts vared lturgcal elements." ndeed, the Chrstan Year s a compass whose needle ponts to Chrst. f the proper and unted observance of Sunday, the Lord's Day, s a sprtual value never to be surrendered, how can we possbly neglect the unted observance of the Lord's year? t must be recognzed that n the Chrstan calendar we have a plan, we have balance, we have varety. The aforementoned "vared lturgcal elements," f only we are cognzant of them and ther possbltes, wll gve varety to our frequently found one-servce and one-knd-ofservce-a-week churches. ( Realzng that a proper understandng of the Lturgy s n sne qua non toward meanngful worshp plannng, Prof. Gehrke smply and brefly explans the varous parts of the lturgy and ther sgnfcance. Hs concepton of the same reflects sold theologcal nsghts. t s worshp n the Word, and Sacrament, not some vague pedagogcal, emotonal relgous experence. Hs subsequent sectons on "The Chor n thc Servce," "The Organst n ' the Servce," "The Hymn-of-the-Week-Plan," "The Hymns n the Servce," "Antphonal Hymn Sngng," and "Acquantng the Gngregaton wth New H!mnsl' offer suggestons whch should be enthusastcally rcceved by every pastor, organst and ch~rmaster. f you are wonderng what your chor mght sng Sunday after Sunday to vary the muscal det and to ad n puttng the Gospel message nto focus, heren are contaned numerous suggestons based upon sound theologcal and hstorcal musc practce. Plannng the servce necdn't be lke your wfe's feelng toward washng the dshes-that as soon as one meal's dshes are washed and dred t's tme to start all over agan, accompancd by the frustratng thought of never seemng to get ahead of the game. Chormasters wll especally also welcome such stngs as: "Settngs of the Zlmn of the Week," "Settngs of the Propers of the Servce," and "New Rluscal Settngs of the Servce" for both congregaton and chors. The body of ths workbook devotcs a separate page to the complete lstng of the ntrot, the Collect, the Epstle, the ntervenent Chants (Gradual), the Gospel, the Proper Preface for each Sunday of the Church Year PUS Maundy Thursday and Good Frday and the settng forth of the sgnfcant theme for each day. We were happy to note that the Gradual s presented n ts proper format (Gradual proper plus Allelua), somethng whch the Lttheran Hymnal fals to do. ncluded n each Sunday's lstng s "The Hymn of the Week" and "Other Hymn Suggestonsv together wth comments as to how these hymns may be sung by chor and congregaton. The hymns suggested by Dr. Gehrke are frst-rate and they were evdently chosen especally for ther servceablty as ads n corporate worshp rather than for ther specfc bearng on thc sermon. After havng studed the propers for each Lord's Day, the chormaster can readly select hs musc and fll n the necessary work sheets, samples of whch are provded. Thus the musc for

15 the entre year can be planned n advance and, at year's end, the work sheets can be S laced n the fle as a record of the chor's work for the year. Ths workbook commands our admraton for ts sound approach, t, scope and ts thoroughness. A lstng of sclected organ lterature mght prove to be a noteworthy addton n any subsequent edton. Ths s a corn. pletely understandable and practcal gude and one qute ndspensable to people serously concerned wth communcatng the Gospel through mudc n worshp. t puls thngs together.

Cloth. $4.95 ($3.95 untl Dec. 31, 1961). ntended prmarly for "teen-agers and young people," ths new verson of the New Testament and the Psalms n "plan Englsh" wll be found useful for devotonal purposes especally. The translators have amed at acherng readabty wth meanngfulness and on the whole have succeeded admrably, although the renderng of the Psalms suffers from an excessve use of Latn dervatves, e.g., soveregnty, formdable, lluson, termnate, fdelty, accede, ngenous, succumb, crescendo, focus-to take a random samplng-whch gve to the Pszlms a very unpoetc, not to menton unrealstc and unhebrac, qualty. The New Testament translaton, on the other hand, s generally more vvd and drect. Occasonally one seems to hear an echo of Phllps' phrasng, as a quck check of Romans 1: 17 ("God's plan to justfy us"), 1 :21 ("dd not acknowledge Hm"), 2 : 1 ("my frend, no matter who you are") wu dsclose. Apparently the bass for the translaton was the Textus Receptus, wth no consderaton gven to textual crtcsm. The percope adultcrae, the comma Joanneum, the longer endng of Mark, as well as other less famlar readngs of uncertan attestaton, are all translated wthout ndcaton of ther character. Rchard Jungkutttz THE MODERN READER'S BBLE ATLAS. By H. H. Rowley. Assocaton Press, New York, pages, 24 maps, llusbatons. Paper. $1.50. Professor Rowley has rather successfully flled a long standng need for a small, nexpensve, yet adequate atlas of the Bbe. Despte ts bref compass ths lttle volume presents the basc ngredents found n much larger atlases-maps, llustratons, and text. The text treats

16 Book Revews 5 1 the geography and hstory of the Bble and the contrbutons of Near Eastern Archaeology to our understandng of the Scrptures. Though summary n scope, the treatment s lucd and qute comprehensve. Chapters three and four, the dentfcaton of Bblcal Stes, and Archaeology and Bble Study are partcularly worthy of note. n hs treatment of Geness 1-9, the Exodus, and the datng of Second saah, Rowley ndcates hs agreement wth most of present day crtcal scholarshp. However, crtcal matters are handled wth care and restrant. The map secton deserves menton both for excellence of selecton and for the hgh qualty of reproducton. Ths s not a book for the specalst; nor wll t provde detaled nformaton on questons of Bblcal hstory or geography. However, the busy pastor, or teacher, and the advanced Bble student wll fnd t a most useful ready reference gude. B. W. Salewsk HSTORY OF NTERPRETATON. By Frederc W. Farrar.
