“…In the same vein, preachers are expositors who willingly stay within the boundaries of the text and do not leave until they have surveyed its entirety with its hearers (Chapell, 2005;Raymond, 2017). Furthermore, through expository preaching, the discourse explains the original God-intended meaning of Scripture, and takes as its central purpose the presentation and application of the text of the Bible, and therefore calls for attention to be given to biblical doctrine and ensures the highest level of biblical knowledge for the congregation (Charles, 2020;Dever & Gilbert, 2012;Keller, 2016;MacArthur, 2005;Merida, 2016;Mohler, 2008).…”

In times of crisis, the role of religious leaders becomes paramount in providing solace and guidance to their followers. This study undertakes a comprehensive analysis of Pope Francis’ homilies during the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on their discourse structure and text types. Employing a descriptive-qualitative approach rooted in discourse analysis, the study examines ten randomly selected homilies from an official Vatican compilation. The analysis reveals a consistent structural pattern comprising an introduction, narration, proposition, argumentation, pathetic, refutation, and conclusion. Furthermore, it discerns that the homilies predominantly exhibit characteristics of factual text, particularly the expository genre, elucidating theological insights and offering practical counsel. However, the study acknowledges limitations such as sample size and linguistic constraints, underscoring the need for careful interpretation of findings. These insights highlight the persuasive and pastoral efficacy of religious discourse during crises and emphasize avenues for future research and practical application in crisis communication and pastoral ministry.

“…There is today a general consensus that the quest for the Judeo-Christian roots was at the origin of the western states' archaeological interest in the Near East. In fact, the period between the second half of the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century was the golden age of what is usually called biblical archaeology, a discipline that affected the archaeological practice of a great number of archaeologists during this epoch (Dever, 1980(Dever, , 1985Glock, 1985Glock, , 1995Silberman, 1982Silberman, , 1998Silberman, , 2001Whitelam, 1996).…”

Although at the end of the nineteenth century the Ottoman sultan began a policy aimed at building a national archaeological heritage, the Arab provinces of the Empire were excluded from this process. It was only after the First World War that the governments of the new colonial states of the area started to elaborate a coherent policy aiming at creating institutions for the protection of cultural heritage. Excavations were started and the first archaeological museums were created by European archaeologists. Yet, the enterprise was mainly a colonizer's affair and the very process of creating a cultural heritage was a way of imposing the European domination on the indigenous population. In this article, I analyse some aspects of the history of archaeological practice in Jordan and its political implications during and after the colonial period. This allows me to show how the emergence of cultural heritage has transformed archaeology into a political instrument at the disposal of the postcolonial state. In particular, I focus on biblical archaeology and Christian religious tourism, and their political meanings.

“…A well-published scholar of Syrio-Palestinehiblical archaeology (hereafter Syrio-Palestine archaeology), William G. Dever (1980a;1980b;1980c;1981;1985;1988;1990a;1990b;1993a;1994;1995), suggests that Syrio-Palestine archaeology has advanced through six theoretical, methodological stages since Edward Robinson's exploration of Palestine in 1838. The six stages are (1) the exploratory stage from 1838 to 19 14; (2) the stage of large-scale fieldwork and the evolution of a basic chronological cultural framework from 19 18 to 1940; (3) the biblical archaeology stage and the introduction of modem stratigraphic methods from 1948 to 1970; Biblical Archaeology 89 Dever (1993a, pp.…”
