Promise and Hope '""Repentance, ' observes Leander Keck, 'is the discipline of turning the life Godward and holding it steadily into the wind.' This book testifies to a life and profession of such graced discipline. Palpable on every page are the integrity of Christian faith and the scholar's accountability to God. Echoes of the Word they may be--but their sonority outweighs the babbling of contemporary biblical exegesis and theological interpretation."" --C. Clifton Black, Otto A. Piper Professor of Biblical Theology, Princeton Theological Seminary, Princeton, NJ ""For more than a half a century, Lee Keck has combined first-rate NT scholarship, theological acumen, and a passion for the church. Keck's dialogue between historical critical inquiry and the contemporary relevance of the biblical text is as important for those who feel little need to take the biblical text seriously as it is for those who refuse to recognize its limits. This collection of addresses and sermons is exemplary in demonstrating how scholarship can serve the church. I endorse it whole-heartedly."" --Gregory Sterling, The Lillian Claus Professor of New Testament, Yale Divinity School, New Haven, CT ""The longer I've practiced ministry, the more I've looked for resources like Echoes of the Word: this collection of essays and sermons which speaks to heart and head alike; from which I can learn, be encouraged, and be challenged; written with extraordinary scholarship and near-poetry by one who both critically studies and passionately lives his faith. Keck has given us a unique gift, gathered from a life of teaching and leadership. Treasure it "" --Natalie Hanson, pastor, Christ First UMC, Jamestown, NY Leander Keck is Professor of Biblical Theology Emeritus at Yale Divinity School.
