NSBT 07: Neither Poverty Nor Riches

NSBT 07: Neither Poverty Nor Riches

A Biblical Theology of Possessions.'Give me neither poverty
nor riches, but give me only my daily bread.' - Proverbs 30:8

One of the
most difficult questions facing Christians today is that of the proper attitude
toward possessions. In wealthy nations such as Britain and the USA, individuals
accumulate much and yet are daily exposed to the plight of the poor, whether
the homeless on their own city streets or starving children on their TV
screens. What action should we take on behalf of the poor? What should we do
with our own possessions?

In Neither Poverty nor Riches Craig
Blomberg asks what the Bible has to say about these issues. Avoiding easy
answers, he instead seeks a comprehensive biblical theology of possessions. And
so he begins with the groundwork laid by the Old Testament and the ideas
developed in the intertestamental period, then draws out what the whole New
Testament has to say on the subject, and finally offers conclusions and
applications relevant to our contemporary world. Neither Poverty Nor
Riches is one book that all should read who are concerned with issues of
poverty and wealth. 'On a subject as sensitive as this one, it is
extraordinarily rare to find balance and prophetic voice rolled up in one. In
my view, this is now the best book on the entire subject.' - D.A.
