By the latter half of the twentieth century, a documented, substantial quantitative increase had occurred in the total number of Christian political organizations operating in Washington, D.C. with the sole purpose of influencing Congress and the administration through direct lobbying. This study seeks to understand what were the contributing historical factors that influenced the rise of Christian Lobby Organizations (CLOs), resulting in their normalization in American society?
Two byzantine churches in Constantinople - a photographic, historical and bibliographical context

This article unpacks Margarete Susman’s political and theological arguments at the core of her reading of the Book of Job. As I show through a reading of her oeuvre, Susman rejects political projects that she takes to be based on eschatology such as political Zionism. However, Susman should not be viewed merely as a critic of Zionism. I argue that an analysis tuned to the historical circumstances of her writing should recognize her stance on the nation-building project in Palestine as ambivalent rather than antagonistic. Susman’s conception of the Jewish spirit as rooted in self-sacrifice allows her to appreciate the national aspirations at the core of the Zionist project while rejecting Zionism’s exclusion of other Jewish national projects. I contend that Susman’s understanding of Jewish messianism as immanent rather than teleological informs her ambivalence toward Zionism as well as her original vision of Jewish political action. I argue in closing that Susman’s theodicy offers a novel vision for Jewish ethics that is not limited to the historical moment of its formulation. Susman’s theodicy also resonates within contemporary debates on Jewish diaspora in providing a non-centralized vision of Jewish national projects.
Um dem neuen Forschungsstand zu Luthers geistlichem Mentor im Augustinerorden endlich zum Durchbruch zu verhelfen, edieren Dohna und Wetzel u. a. Akten aus dem Häresie-Verfahren des Erzbischofs von Salzburg gegen den Augustiner Agricola. Staupitz, der ein Gutachten lieferte, hat sich keineswegs von der lutherischen Bewegung distanziert. Er blieb seiner frühreformatorischen Theologie treu und vermied eine Verurteilung. Agricola musste keineswegs fliehen, er wurde freigelassen. Während andernorts schon Scheiterhaufen brannten, hatten Reformkatholiken hier noch Platz in der abendländischen Kirche.
