Book L esp  rance juive    l heure de J  sus

Download or read book L esp rance juive l heure de J sus written by Pierre Grelot and published by Fleurus. This book was released on 2011-03-25T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voici l’édition entièrement nouvelle, profondément revue et largement augmentée, du livre du même nom depuis longtemps épuisé. On y présente, de la façon la plus complète, les textes juifs non bibliques centrés sur la figure du médiateur de salut, autrement dit le Messie. L’enquête part du IIIe siècle av. J.C., avec les apocalypses ; elle se termine au Ve siècle après, avec le Talmud. Le champ est immense. Il permet que l’on décrive les variations (en fonction des courants : Pharisiens, Sadducéens, Esséniens, juifs de la Diaspora grecque, etc.) mais aussi l’évolution des croyances, des idées et des représentations juives. La section sur les textes de Quoumrân ou manuscrits de la mer Morte a été la plus remaniée, en fonction des découvertes et études plus récentes. Tous les textes sont traduits de première main, resitués dans leur contexte historique et richement commentés. Cet ouvrage n’a pas d’équivalent. Il présente l’arrière-plan sur lequel se détachent avec leur originalité : la prédication de Jésus avec ses thèmes les plus forts (le Royaume de Dieu, la résurrection, etc.) ; les titres que les écrits du Nouveau Testament donnent au fondateur du christianisme (Prophète, Messie ou Christ, Serviteur de Dieu, Fils de l’Homme). Une collection de référence en christologie sous la direction de Monseigneur Doré.

"Brilliant and lucidly written, full of original and fascinating insights."—Reginald H.

Tabor, Journal of Religion "Fredriksen confronts her documents—principally the writings of the New Testament—as an archaeologist would an especially rich complex site. With great care she distinguishes the literary images from historical fact. As she does so, she explains the images of Jesus in terms of the strategies and purposes of the writers Paul, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John."—Thomas D’Evelyn, Christian Science Monitor

Book The Son of Man Debate

    Book Details:
  • Author : Delbert Burkett
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2000-01-13
  • ISBN : 1139429809
  • Pages : 192 pages

Download or read book The Son of Man Debate written by Delbert Burkett and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2000-01-13 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The expression 'Son of Man', used in the Gospels almost exclusively by Jesus, has been the object of intensive study since the Protestant Reformation, yet scholars have come to no agreement on its origin or meaning. Research in this area has been described as 'a veritable mine field' and 'a can of worms'. Because of the scope and complexity of the literature, no comprehensive survey of the subject has been written in the twentieth century. Delbert Burkett's book fills this need. It provides a comprehensive historical overview of the debate from the patristic period to 1996, and gives an evaluation of that research and a summation of the present state of the question. Burkett concludes that despite nineteen centuries of 'Son of Man' study there is no consensus concerning the meaning or origin of the expression; the debate is therefore a prime example of the limits of New Testament scholarship.

Book 1 Enoch 91 108

  • Author : Loren T. Stuckenbruck
  • Publisher : Walter de Gruyter
  • Release : 2008-08-27
  • ISBN : 3110204134
  • Pages : 873 pages

Download or read book 1 Enoch 91 108 written by Loren T. Stuckenbruck and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-08-27 with total page 873 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume is a commentary on 1 Enoch chapters 91-108 that begins with the Ethiopic text tradition but also takes the Greek and Aramaic (Dead Sea Scrolls) evidence into account. This section of 1 Enoch, which contains material from at least five different documents composed some time during the 2nd century BCE, provides a window into the early stages of the reception of the earliest Enoch tradition, as it was being negotiated in relation to elitist religious opponents, on the one hand, and in relation to other Jewish traditions that were flourishing at the time. The commentary, at the beginning of which there is an extensive introduction, is structured in the following way: there is a translation for each unit of text (including the Greek and Aramaic where it exists, with the Greek and Ethiopic translations presented synoptically), followed by detailed textual notes that justify the translation and provide information on a full range of variations among the manuscripts. This, in turn, is followed by a General Comment on the unit of text; after this there are detailed notes on each subdivision of the text which attempt to situate the content within the stream of biblical interpretation and developing Jewish traditions of the Second Temple period. The five documents in 1 Enoch 91-108 are dealt with in the following order: (1) Apocalypse of Weeks (93:1-10; 91:11-17); (2) Admonition (91:1-10, 18-19); (3) Epistle of Enoch (92:1-5; 93:11-105:2; (4) Birth of Noah (106-107); and (5) the Eschatological Appendix (108).

Download or read book Rediscovering John written by Lesław Daniel Chrupcała and published by Edizioni Terra Santa. This book was released on 2014-05-29T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 679 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of dedicating a Festschrift to honor Professor Frédéric Manns on the happy occasion of his 70th birthday came to mind in the autumn of 2011 and work on this project had been continuing ever since. Felicitously achieving this goal, the Faculty of Biblical Sciences and Archaeology (Studium Biblicum Franciscanum) and the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land present this volume to Father Manns with gratitude for his profound scholarship and a lifetime service in the Holy Land. Perusing through Father Manns’ writings, it is easy to see a prominent and distinctive place devoted to the Gospel of John. It seemed therefore suitable to focus on this subject in the Festschrift honoring him: the title, Rediscovering John, relates to Manns’ significant contribution towards the better understanding of the Fourth Gospel. The volume comprises 21 studies authored by renowned scholars from various parts of the world, from different institutions and denominations. While the first half of the studies examines general issues (history of interpretation, textual transmission, intertextuality, theological themes, archaeology), the second half treats literary, narrative and exegetical approaches to particular texts of the Fourth Gospel. We augur that this rich collection will help to stimulate further discussion and reflection on the Gospel of John, as well as constitute an incentive to an already distinguished scholar to continue writing challenging and thought-provoking essays and books.

  • Publisher : Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
  • Release : 2017-09-11
  • ISBN : 3110519828
  • Pages : 448 pages

Download or read book Game Over written by Christophe Chalamet and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-09-11 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern science informs us about the end of the universe: "game over" is the message which lies ahead of our world. Christian theology, on the other hand, sees in the end not the cessation of all life, but rather an invitation to play again, in God's presence. Is there a way to articulate together such vastly different claims? Eschatology is a theological topic which merits being considered from several different angles. This book seeks to do this by gathering contributions from esteemed and fresh voices from the fields of biblical exegesis, history, systematic theology, philosophy, and ethics. How can we make sense, today, of Jesus' (and the New Testament's) eschatological message? How did he, his early disciples, and the Christian tradition, envision the "end" of the world? Is there a way for us to articulate together what modern science tells us about the end of the universe with the biblical and Christian claims about God who judges and who will wipe every tear? Eschatology has been at the heart of Christian theology for 100 years in the West. What should we do with this legacy? Are there ways to move our reflection forward, in our century? Scholars and other interested readers will find here a wealth of insights.

Book Restoring the Kingdom

    Book Details:
  • Author : Michael A. Salmeier
  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2011-07-01
  • ISBN : 1610970985
  • Pages : 225 pages

Download or read book Restoring the Kingdom written by Michael A. Salmeier and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the book of Acts divine involvement is everywhere. From the beginning God is responsible for promised action, including the geographic expansion--"in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth" (1:7)--referenced in Jesus' response to the disciples, clearly related to Luke's purpose in writing the book. Geographic expansion, however, is only the second part of Jesus' reply. Is it possible that the first half of Jesus' reply--"It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority"--has even greater bearing on the actions that follow and on Luke's purpose? Is the Father setting times and seasons related to the kingdom's establishment? Does this phrase explain the conspicuous divine involvement throughout the plot? In Restoring the Kingdom, Michael Salmeier answers these questions in the affirmative by exploring Luke's characterization of God in three strands: God as the King who establishes and restores Israel's king, who establishes his people, and who directs events. This unfolds Luke's purpose in assuring the reader concerning the events that have taken place, helping to more fully illuminate Luke's theology concerning God and his kingdom.

Book Jewish eschatology  early Christian Christology and the Testaments of the twelve Patriarchs

Download or read book Jewish eschatology early Christian Christology and the Testaments of the twelve Patriarchs written by Marinus de Jonge and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-04-03 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, which appears on the occasion of Marinus de Jonge's retirement as Professor of New Testament at Leiden University, brings together twenty essays which he wrote recently for various periodicals and collective works. A number of articles deal with the expectation of the future in Jewish sources, like Ps. Sol., the Qumran Scrolls and Josephus. Closely connected with these are some essays on the question of how such titles as 'Christ', and 'Son of David' came to be applied to Jesus. Eleven essays delve into various important aspects of the Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs: eschatology, ethics, paraenesis, but also their use of Jewish source material and their view of the history of God's dealing with man, a view related to that held by Justin and Hippolytus. This book throws light on the Jewish origins of early Christian theology and on its relationship with the Hellenistic culture in which it developed. The book also includes Marinus de Jonge's bibliography.
