3036. SEBTS Adams Lecture - David Allan Hubbard February 9, 1989
- Description:
- David Allan Hubbard was the president of Fuller Theological Seminary in California. Dr. Hubbard is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:16). A hymn is played (0:17-4:57). A word of prayer is given (4:58-5:27). A hymn is played (cut) (5:28-5:43). Esther and Ted Adams are briefly mentioned and Dr. Hubbard’s lecture on Ecclesiastes is revealed as being titled “Doubt and Rejoicing” (5:44-7:40). The choir sings an anthem (7:41-10:16). Dr. Hubbard begins his lecture with the question, “do you know what you are reading?” (10:17-13:20). Ecclesiastes is canonical and useful for present audiences as it helps readers to face certain weaknesses (13:21-17:28). Dr. Hubbard discusses the futility of life as a main theme (17:29-20:48). Ecclesiastes’ language and grammar suggests that it was written during an age later than Solomon’s age; the writer Qoheleth links himself to Solomon to grab readers’ attention (20:49-20:58). Dr. Hubbard conveys themes of futility and enjoyment, which are demonstrated by the use of proverbs (20:59-31:18). He then provides four assumptions of the book: crisis is used as a motivation, continuity is used as a method, conflict is the mood, and canonical balance is achieved (31:19-40:19). A relationship exists between Proverbs and Ecclesiastes, as Qoheleth provides a counterbalance to the abuse of wisdom (40:20-41:16). Ecclesiastes is similar to Job in that it stresses the freedom of God (41:17-43:59). Qoheleth draws attention to the realities of grace, death, life, and enjoyment (44:00-46:18). Dr. Hubbard explains that pastorally Ecclesiastes plays the role of removing false props or realities (46:19-47:34). He also urges listeners to take life as it comes and to encourage others to do the same (47:35-50:26). Joy is present in little things (50:27-52:40). He summarizes the prior key points: Ecclesiastes helps us to anticipate the better news, to take life as it comes, and to remove false props (52:41-53:14). Ecclesiastes has its own purpose and aids us in understanding Christ’s suffering and death on the cross (53:15-54:34). Dr. Hubbard concludes with a final word on how Qoheleth challenged the older wise men, preparing the way for the greater wisdom of Christ (54:35-55:26). Dr. Hubbard is thanked and certain guests are recognized (55:27-56:00). The benediction ends the lecture (56:01-56:19).
