God instructs us to give our whole life to him as a holy and living sacrifice. But how do we do this? What does it mean to truly surrender your life to God as a sacrifice? One great way is to pattern yourself after Israel’s offerings. Give Your All to God focuses on the burnt offering and explains how while the people of Israel used a physical animal as a sacrifice, today we offer every part of our lives to God. And just as the physical offering was divided into five parts and burned up completely, we can take this unique example and apply it to our own sacrifice of our heart, soul, strength, mind, and everything else. Author Morris Williams presents sixteen worship behaviors that we can offer to God every day, enabling us to be a complete and total offering to God. You must give your all to God, and doing so is what pleases him as you follow his instructions. And likewise, surrendering fully to God is part of his plan of salvation through Jesus Christ—the ultimate sacrifice, who died for you so you could become a valued member of God’s family.

The theme of this volume in honour of Eep Talstra is ‘Tradition and Innovation in Biblical Interpretation’, with an emphasis on the innovative role of computer-assisted textual analysis. It focusses on the role of tradition in biblical interpretation and of the innovations brought about by ICT in reconsidering existing interpretations of texts, grammatical concepts, and lexicographic practices. Questions addressed include: How does the role of exegesis as the ‘clarification of one’s own tradition, in order to understand choices and preferences’ (Talstra) relate to the critical role which Scripture has towards this tradition? How does the indebtedness to tradition of computer-driven philology relate to its innovative character? And how does computer-assisted analysis of the biblical texts lead to new research methods and results?
