Book Description: In the Shadow of Your Wings comments on select Bible passages, explaining their meaning and how they can be applied to the current scene. The books of Psalms, Joshua, Luke, Jeremiah, and others are included. In the eighth chapter of this book Lohfink interprets Psalm 36, the inspiration for the title 'In the Shadow of Your Wings,' which focuses on a movement from a mysticism of human introspection to a mysticism of the presence of God in the world and society. In this collection of essays Lohfink suggests that righteousness from rescue, rescue in the place of praise and adoration the themes of Psalm 36 are the contexts to which the Bible, the basis of the lives of Jews and Christians, belongs. Chapters are 'Death at the River Frontier. Moses Incomplete Mission and the Contours of the Bible;' ' Go From Your Country . . . The God of the Patriarchs and Matriarchs;' 'Conquest or Return? Reading Joshua Today;' 'Jeremiah and the Sacred Heart of Jesus: The New Covenant; ' 'Hosea and Wrath. Some Suggestions for Reading;' 'The Psalter and Meditation.
