Biblical purity categories are often misconstrued either as hygienic terms or as a straightforward synonym for sin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGeoffrey 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.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eCareful 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.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eHarper 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.\u003cbr\u003e\nEAN: 9781789742725\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 240\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Academic Biblical Theology\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 25mm x216mm x138mm\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: October 2025\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Apollos\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HARPER G GEOFFREY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52210184978713,"sku":"9781789742725","price":64.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/8757\/8905\/files\/9781789742725_0.jpg?v=1776121044","url":"https:\/\/crossroad.com.au\/products\/nsbt-you-shall-be-clean-a-biblical-theology-of-defilement-and-cleansing-new-studies-in-biblical-theology-series","provider":"Crossroad Distributors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
