"Certainties Transformed: Jonah 4 and Acts 10:9-35," Simon Oxley, The
Ecumenical Review, 2004.
- "We might want to describe some people's certainties as prejudices, but we usually see our own in a positive light. Not all certainties are propositions, but they may be expressed in attitudes and behaviour. It could be argued that these are a better guide to what we are actually certain about than our words."
-
- "In Luke?s writings the ancient practice of hospitality?the custom of welcoming travelers or strangers into one?s home and establishing relationships with them?becomes the prism through which Jesus? disciples can view one another and others as valuable children of God."
