Cómo Leer Eclesiastés

Cuestionando La Fe En Un Mundo Desconcertante
$11.49
($14.99)
Product Description

No hay una respuesta fácil al significado de la vida, incluso cuando crees en Dios.

El libro de Eclesiastés busca responder a la pregunta: " Qué ganancia tienen los hombres de todo su trabajo con el que se afanan bajo el sol?" El personaje central del libro es Qohelet, quien quiere entender el significado de la vida tanto como sea posible con las herramientas de su propia observación empírica y razón. Lucha por reconciliar el hermoso mundo que amamos y disfrutamos con el desconcertante mundo de injusticia, sufrimiento y muerte. Qohelet gira alrededor de un abismo de nihilismo y pesimismo. Vive con preguntas sin respuesta. Sin embargo, sigue siendo un creyente.

El erudito del Antiguo Testamento, Christopher J. H. Wright, te invita a unirte a Qohelet en un viaje a través de la literatura de sabiduría de hace siglos, porque el mensaje de Eclesiastés puede ser extrañamente reconfortante mientras ponemos nuestra fe a prueba en la era posmoderna de hoy. Habrá giros desorientadores y vueltas y el ocasional callejón sin salida mientras se discuten temas complejos, como:

  • El significado de la vida
  • Misterios del tiempo y la injusticia
  • Ambigüedades del trabajo, la política, la adoración y la riqueza

Cómo leer Eclesiastés no responderá tus preguntas sobre el significado de la vida, pero en última instancia te ayudará a vivir en la tensión de los regalos de Dios en Génesis 1-2 y el mundo caído de Génesis 3, y aún así seguir confiando en la bondad soberana de Dios.

How to Read Ecclesiastes

There is no easy answer to the meaning of life--even when you believe in God.

The book of Ecclesiastes seeks to answer the question: "What do people gain from all their labors at which they toil under the sun?" The book's central character is Qoheleth, who wants to understand the meaning of life as far as he possibly can with the tools of his own empirical observation and reason. He struggles to reconcile the beautiful world that we love and enjoy with the baffling world of injustice, suffering, and death. Qoheleth circles around an abyss of nihilism and pessimism. He lives with unanswered questions. Yet he remains a believer.

Old Testament scholar Christopher J. EH. Wright invites you to join Qoheleth on a journey through wisdom literature from centuries ago, because the message of Ecclesiastes can be strangely reassuring as we put our faith to the test in today's post-modern era. There will be disorienting twists and turns and the occasional complete impasse as complex topics are discussed, such as:

  • The meaning of life
  • Mysteries of time and injustice
  • Ambiguities of work, politics, worship, and wealth

How to Read Ecclesiastes won't answer your questions about the meaning of life, but it will ultimately help you live in the tension of God's gifts in Genesis 1-2 and the fallen world of Genesis 3--and still go on trusting in the sovereign goodness of God.
