Biblical purity categories are often misconstrued either as hygienic terms or as a straightforward synonym for sin. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Geoffrey Harper's stimulating study adopts a canonical approach to explore the causes, objects, implications and remedies for ritual and moral uncleanness throughout the Scriptures in order to construct a biblical theology of cleansing and defilement. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Careful consideration of the biblical texts suggests the language of 'unclean' is most frequently used to demarcate a state of being of people or objects rendered unfit or 'out of place' (and requiring separation or removal) with respect to God's presence. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Harper teases out the implications for Christian theology and mission. This will help you gain a more rounded appreciation of what Christ has achieved for his people. You will also be better equipped to explain the gospel in a winsome way to non-Westerners whose felt needs often orbit around issues of ritual and\/or moral defilement.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGeoffrey Harper (PhD, Australian College of Theology) is lecturer in Old Testament and director of research at Sydney Missionary and Bible College.
