This article shows that the Christian life is impossible to live and make sense of without 2 Corinthians. The letter shows that the way up is down, as it was with Christ.

Can Jeremiah 33:14-26 be seen as a centre of the Bible? The article draws attention to six intercanonical themes that cluster in this passage as God promises here to restore his people. These themes are messianic hope, land, kingship, priesthood, covenant, and election.

This study suggests that we find an allusion to Genesis 3:7 in Luke 24:31. Both Adam and Eve's eyes and those of the two disciples on the road to Emmaus were opened when they were offered food. The study first notes the general lack of attention in the relevant literature for the possibility of this inter-canonical connection. Ortlund identifies three scholars who link Luke 24:31 to Genesis 3, and then provides four factors that suggest such a link.

Ortlund wants to address what he sees as a friction between the two themes in Paul's letters of justification by faith and judgment according to works. He evaluates ways in which scholars reconcile the two themes. He also want to call attention to a number of neglected factors in the discussion.

What is the significance of the three-hour darkness described in Mark 15:33? The authors explore the biblical-theological dimensions to this text. They argue that this is a culmination of a trajectory started in Genesis 1:2-3.

This article shows that living a "cross-shaped life" is living with an understanding that following Jesus means death and self-denial, as well as joy. A Christian is someone who lives with the experience of all three of these things.
