With the help of members of the Theology on the Web Facebook Group I have been able to contact the literary executor of the late Dr Carl F.H. Henry and I am delighted to be able to report that I have been granted permission to place the entire contents of this book on-line.

As you will see from the Table of Contents (below) all the articles look really interesting. I have added them to my long "to do" list, but would like to place one of them online straight away. I am therefore going to ask my readers to vote on which one they would most like to read by leaving a comment below. The closing date for suggestions is 12th April.

Winner of the "Interpreting the Word of God" article vote

I recently asked for readers of my blog and the members of my Facebook Group to vote for which chapter of the Steven Barabas FS they would like to see online. I had a large number of responses and a clear favourite soon appeared. I am pleased to be able to publish the "winning" article. I hope it was the one that you voted for:

Donald A. Hagner, "The Old Testament in the New Testament," Samuel J. Schultz & Morris A. Inch, eds., Interpreting the Word of God. Festschift in Honor of Steven Barabas. Chicago: Moody Press, 1976. Hbk. pp.78-104.

Thanks again to Moody Press for this permission to use the chapter and to one of my supporters for donating the book.

F.F. Bruce on the Two Sons of Abraham - a Study in Pauline Hermeneutics

The following article is now available in PDF:

F.F. Bruce, "Abraham had two Sons: A Study in Pauline Hermeneutics," Huber L. Drumwright, & Curtis Vaughan, eds., New Testament Studies: Essays in Honor of Ray Summers in His Sixty-Fifth Year. Waco, TX: Markham Press Fund, Baylor University Press, 1975. Hbk. pp.71-84.

I am extremely pleased to be able to make this available, thanks to the kind permission of Baylor University Press. As far as I can determine, no copy of this book exists in the United Kingdom Library system and few copies are available for sale, so this may well be a very rare article.

Vox Evangelica Volume 3 (1964) now on-line

The following articles are now available in PDF:

L.C. Allen, "The Old Testament in Romans I-VIII," Vox Evangelica 3 (1964): 6-41.

An extremely detailed study - still being quoted in new studies on the subject.

A.E. Cundall, "Antecedents of the Monarchy in Ancient Israel," Vox Evangelica 3 (1964): 42-51.

Arthur Cundall wrote the Tyndale Commentary on Judges.

R.P. Martin, "A Footnote to Pliny's Account of Christian Worship," Vox Evangelica 3 (1964): 51-57.

Judging by my site logs Ralph P. Martin's study in Volume 2 has attracted a great deal of interest. Here he rounds off his study by looking at a piece of 2nd Century evidence.

H.D. McDonald, "The Changing Emphasis in the Doctrine of Providence," Vox Evangelica 3 (1964): 58-75.

H.H. Rowden, "Secession from the Established Church in the Early Nineteenth Century," Vox Evangelica 3 (1964): 76-88.

E. Earle Ellis on Jesus' Use of the Old Testament

I have just uploaded the following article in PDF:

E. Earle Ellis, "Jesus' Use of the Old Testament and the Genesis of New Testament Theology," Bulletin for Biblical Research 3 (1993): 59-75.

Earle Ellis is always worth reading when it comes to the study of the use of the OT in the New and this article is no exception to the rule.
