"Ousia and Homoousios are not words used in Scripture, but the meaning assigned to them was biblical. They were adopted into the Nicene Creed on the basis of their usefulness in codifying biblical content in opposition to Arian theology." (JETS 69.2)

"The [chiasm's purpose] is to emphasize both the quality of the overseer’s relationships—with his family, the church, & those outside—& the integrity of his personal life, while focusing attention on the central qualification: 'an overseer must be … able to teach.'" (JETS 69.2)

"The Son of Man issues divine forgiveness (5:24) & salvation (19:9) 'today.' Yet Luke also anticipates a future day: 'his day' (17:24), 'that day' (21:34–36)—the 'fixed day' (Acts 17:31) when the enthroned Son of Man will return to judge the world in righteousness." (JETS 69.2)

"Thus, it is apparent that Jesus’s Davidic descent is a central tenet of the kerygma. The proclamation of the gospel depends on Jesus’s human kingship, particularly his Davidic lineage. It should not therefore be overlooked in summaries of the kerygma." (JETS 69.2)

"The cultic apostasy & social anarchy display the vacuum left by the absence of a Torah-obedient king & the community’s failure to live under covenantal limits. The refrain, then, does not reject kingship; it implicitly commends the kind of kingship Deut. envisages." (JETS 69.2)

"The purpose of this article is to persuade Bible scholars and laypeople alike to replace the term “typology” with “predictive analogy,” which I will argue is a sub-category of narrative analogy." (JETS 69.2)

"In the end, the Pro-Nicenes and the EHCC share obvious sensibilities....[yet] the Pro-Nicene categories reveal a broader set of exegetical and conceptual tools for Trinitarian theology, offering a variegated set of principles for affirming the Trinity in the Bible." (JETS 69.2)

"The orthodoxy of ERAS does not entail the truth of ERAS. A doctrinal position could fully satisfy the demands of orthodoxy yet lack sufficient scriptural support to warrant acceptance. Perhaps the same can be said of ERAS." (JETS 69.1)

"The typological relations model focuses on man and woman together as bearing the image of God as a type & foreshadowing of the telos of humanity in the union between Christ and his Bride." (JETS 69.1)

"The principalities and powers [are] personal, suprahuman, immaterial agents, [and Paul identifies] them specifically as fallen angels—not demons or pagan deities—who are actively complicit with the perverse testing and scheming organized and administered by Satan." (JETS 69.1)

"At least according to [Luke], the roots for the link between Jesus’s resurrection & the eschatological resurrection were present before Saul of Tarsus joined the Christians. It is nowhere explicated as directly as in 1 Cor 15, but the basis for it was in place." (JETS 69.1)

"If Psalm 132 is heard as Christ’s own song, which becomes our own via our union with Christ, we can thus participate in the psalm’s remembrance of God’s promises to establish his dwelling place on earth, while also petitioning God to come & set the world to rights." (JETS 69.1)

"In what settings do theological educators and students wrestle most with inappropriate envy of the undeserved generosity others receive?...Let’s stop comparing ourselves with others and look forward to that eternal glory that is the great equalizer..." (JETS 69.1)
