Religious Internationalism assembles and assesses for the first time the ethics of war and peace in the writings of Paul Tillich. It sketches the evolution of Tillich's thought from the period of his service in the German Imperial Army through the time of the Cold War. The work begins by analyzing Tillich's theological roots and his World War I chaplaincy sermons as the starting point for his thoughts on power and nationalism. Then, Religious Internationalism looks to his postwar turn to socialist thought and his participation in religious socialism, fueling his cultural analyses and culminating in his forced emigration under Hitler. Next, it probes the American interwar period, giving special attention to Tillich's self-described boundary perspective as well as the one treatise he wrote on religion and international affairs. The book also examines his Voice of America speeches, written and broadcast into his former homeland during World War II. Weaver next considers Tillich's message to his English-speaking audience of that period, emphasizing social and world reconstruction. The discussion continues by examining his vision of a path toward personhood in a bipolar world. Finally, the book constructs Tillich's ethics of war and peace as an ethic of religious internationalism, suggesting adjustments intended to give it more universal significance. The study concludes that Tillich's thought has provocative contributions to make to debates regarding civilizational conflict, economics and international justice, trade and globalization, the defense of unprotected minorities, and immigration policy.

The American Standard Bible 'Äî The Gospel of Matthew presents a contemporary yet faithful translation of one of the New Testament's most pivotal texts. Rooted in early Christian traditions, Matthew'Äôs Gospel intricately weaves together elements of narrative and teaching, emphasizing the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies and the teachings of Jesus. This version captures the profound theological insights and moral imperatives of the original Greek text, rendered in accessible American English, making it suitable for both academic study and personal reflection. Readers will appreciate its structured approach, which invites contemplation of the narrative's unfolding drama and the overarching theme of Christ's kingship. Matthew, traditionally identified as a former tax collector and one of Jesus' twelve apostles, provides a distinctive perspective on Jesus' life and mission. His background uniquely positions him to address the Jewish audience while also reaching out to gentile readers. This Gospel draws on his firsthand experiences and rich connections with the teachings of Jesus, reflecting his intent to convey a comprehensive account of the Messiah'Äôs life, death, and resurrection. I highly recommend The American Standard Bible 'Äî The Gospel of Matthew for those seeking a deeper understanding of the Christian faith, as well as scholars interested in biblical literature. Its clear, modern language combined with its respect for the original text makes it an invaluable resource for both devout study and casual readers who wish to engage meaningfully with the teachings of Christ.
