This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E. G. Hirsch's thought-provoking work argues that the crucifixion of Jesus Christ was a result of the Roman order occupying Judea, rather than the established Jewish temple and society of Judea. Informed by scholarly research of Israel in the 1st century AD, together with a close reading of the Biblical canon, Hirsch presents a persuasive and convincing argument as to who was culpable for Jesus' death. We hear of how the Jewish courts lost the right to pronounce a death penalty, as the Roman occupiers of Judea assumed authority in matters of crime and punishment. Notably, Hirsch points out that the phenomena of crucifying a person - tying and nailing them to a cross of wood, before leaving them exposed to the elements to die - had no founding in Jewish culture. Indeed there was no word for it; the Jews of the time only had a generic term denoting hanging, which was a commoner and less brutal form of execution. Crucifixion by contrast was a grisly innovation of Rome, reserved for its worst criminals and traitors; a horrific and very visible form of deterrent to those who might work against the Roman state. Hirsch concludes by saying that the Jewish people did not hang Jesus. The pot estas gladii - the power over life and death - lay firmly with the Romans. Emil Gustav Hirsch was a prominent rabbi who lived in the United States for most of his life. Advocating for the Reform movement of Judaism, he published several essays and works, offering learned commentaries on religious matters.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Crucifixion Viewed From a Jewish Standpoint: A Lecture Delivered by Invitation, Before the Chicago Institute for Morals, Religion and Letters Not to tarry too long by these and other details of difference, I may sum up the character of the fourth gospel in contradistinction to the others, as an ideal, pneumatic work. Its home was not Palestine but Asia hiinor, and the date of composition cannot be placed earlier than 150 after Christ. This comparison of the fourth gospel with the three others, shows how the pictures of Jesus gradually formed and changed, enlarged and deepened. Current in the mouth of his disciples and among the young churches, were many stories about his deeds, his birth, his life and his death. As is the case always with such tradition, they grow steadily from small beginnings as they pass from mouth to mouth, and from generation to generation, and often are enlarged by the addition of foreign elements.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Crucifixion Viewed From a Jewish Standpoint: A Lecture Delivered by Invitation, Before the Chicago Institute for Morals, Religion and Letters Wherever religion builds her altars, there flames a burning bush, and he who would draw near to it in the proper spirit, must be mindful of the caution addressed to the old Hebrew shepherd: "Veil thy countenance, take off thy shoes, for the ground on which thou standest is holy." Religion is ever thought about the highest and deepest themes and motives of life. He who has no religion, may scoff at the convictions of another; but one who himself cherishes as the best he has, his own religious principles, will only reverently enter upon the discussion of his neighbor's religious creed, and even when he differs from him or has reason to reject one or the other fact upon which his brother rears his temple, he will never for the mere purpose of denial, or to fill a vacant hour with a ribald jest, presume to raise his voice in the other man's sanctuary. The subject which I am to handle, is fraught with great difficulties. It centers in a tragedy which for millions of the human family symbolizes the supreme moment of all history. The cross, which is the sign of that majestic and awful event, has spelled for thousands and thousands the message of hope, making life bearable under stress, testing to the utmost human endurance.

Download or read book The Crucifixion of Jesus written by Gerard Stephen Sloyan and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What was crucifixion? Why was Jesus of Nazareth executed and what really happened? Gerard Sloyan begins with history and traces the development of the New Testament accounts of Jesus' death. He shows how Jesus' death came to be seen as sacrificial and how the evolving understandings of Jesus' death affected those who suffered most from it - the Jews. He then traces the emergence and development - in theology, liturgy, literature, art - of the conviction that Jesus' death was redemptive, as seen both in soteriological theory from Tertullian to Anselm, in the Reformation and modern eras, and in more popular religious responses to the crucifixion. Especially fascinating is the story of the emergence of a distinct "Passion piety" that still characterizes the West. In all this Sloyan detects the separation of the cross from Jesus' life and resurrection, allowing the mythicizing of an event too large for mere words to handle: the mystery of the cross.

Download or read book Misquoting Jesus written by Bart D. Ehrman and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When world-class biblical scholar Bart Ehrman first began to study the texts of the Bible in their original languages he was startled to discover the multitude of mistakes and intentional alterations that had been made by earlier translators. In Misquoting Jesus, Ehrman tells the story behind the mistakes and changes that ancient scribes made to the New Testament and shows the great impact they had upon the Bible we use today. He frames his account with personal reflections on how his study of the Greek manuscripts made him abandon his once ultraconservative views of the Bible. Since the advent of the printing press and the accurate reproduction of texts, most people have assumed that when they read the New Testament they are reading an exact copy of Jesus's words or Saint Paul's writings. And yet, for almost fifteen hundred years these manuscripts were hand copied by scribes who were deeply influenced by the cultural, theological, and political disputes of their day. Both mistakes and intentional changes abound in the surviving manuscripts, making the original words difficult to reconstruct. For the first time, Ehrman reveals where and why these changes were made and how scholars go about reconstructing the original words of the New Testament as closely as possible. Ehrman makes the provocative case that many of our cherished biblical stories and widely held beliefs concerning the divinity of Jesus, the Trinity, and the divine origins of the Bible itself stem from both intentional and accidental alterations by scribes -- alterations that dramatically affected all subsequent versions of the Bible.

Download or read book The Resurrection of Jesus written by Pinchas Lapide and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2002-03-12 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I accept the resurrection of Jesus not as an invention of the community of disciples, but as an historical event.Ó When a leading orthodox Jew makes such a declaration, its significance can hardly be overstated. Pinchas Lapide is a rabbi and theologian who has specialized in the study of the New Testament. In this book he convincingly shows that an irreducible minimum of experience underlies the New Testament account of the resurrection, however much of the details of the narrative may be open to objection. He maintains that life after death is part of the Jewish faith experience, and that it is Jesus' messiahship, not his resurrection, which marks the division between Christianity and Judaism. Dr. Lapide quotes Moses Maimonides, the greatest Jewish thinker, in his support: All these matters which refer to Jesus of Nazareth...only served to make the way free for the King Messiah and to prepare the whole world for the worship of God with a united heart.Ó
Download or read book Jewish Scholarship on the Resurrection of Jesus written by David Mishkin and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-09-07 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jewish study of Jesus has made enormous strides within the last two hundred years. Virtually every aspect of the life of Jesus and related themes have been analyzed and discussed. Jesus has been "reclaimed" as a fellow Jew by many, although what this actually means remains a matter for discussion. Ironically, the one event in the life of Jesus that has received significantly less attention is the one that the New Testament proclaims as the most important of all: his resurrection from the dead. This book is the first attempt to document Jewish views of the resurrection of Jesus in history and modern scholarship.
Download or read book The Crucified Rabbi written by Taylor Marshall and published by Saint John Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does Jesus fulfill over three hundred Old Testament Prophecies? (each listed inside this book) Is Catholicism inherently Anti-Semitic? Do the Hebrew Scriptures accurately predict Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah? How does Jewish thinking presuppose devotion to Mary? Is the Catholic Church a fulfillment of historic Israel? How do Jewish water rituals relate to Catholic baptism? Is the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass a Passover meal? Should the Catholic priesthood conform to the priesthood established by Moses? How has the Jewish Temple influenced traditional Christian architecture? Does the Pope wear a yarmulke? Praise for The Crucified Rabbi "Taylor Marshall helps us to be more Catholic by taking our faith to its most profound depths - its ancient roots in the religion of Israel, the Judaism beloved by the Apostles, the religion of the Temple and Synagogue, the Torah and the sacrifice. Jesus said he came not to abolish that faith but to fulfill it. In this book, we see that fullness down to the smallest details. I treasure this book." Mike Aquilina, author of The Fathers of the Church "Such sparkling insights appear on almost every page, as Taylor Marshall deftly compares various features of Judaism to their Catholic counterparts: the priesthood, vestments, holy days, marriage, and saints, to name but a few. Saint Augustine's dictum, "The New Covenant is in the Old, concealed; the Old Covenant is in the New, revealed" is on full display in The Crucified Rabbi --Cale Clarke, Catholic Insight Magazine "This is a fascinating book full of interesting details. The Crucified Rabbi should be required reading for every student of the Catholic faith." Father Dwight Longenecker, author of Mary: A Catholic/Evangelical Debate
