Book Matthew s Emmanuel

  • Author : David D. Kupp
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2005-10-06
  • ISBN : 9780521020657
  • Pages : 316 pages

Download or read book Matthew s Emmanuel written by David D. Kupp and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-10-06 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matthew uniquely highlights Jesus as "Emmanuel", but almost wholly overlooked are the deeper implications of this "presence" motif for Matthean christology. Kupp takes a multidisciplinary approach to the weaving of the Emmanuel Messiah into the story-telling, redaction and christology of the Gospel. Kupp employs the lenses of both narrative and historical criticism to produce the first monograph in English on the divine presence in Matthew. Matthew's Gospel is a story that compels, a text with a history and a christological treatise.

Book An Aramaic Approach to Q

    Book Details:
  • Author : Maurice Casey
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2002-09-26
  • ISBN : 113943828X
  • Pages : 222 pages

Download or read book An Aramaic Approach to Q written by Maurice Casey and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-09-26 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to examine the Aramaic dimension of Q since the Aramaic Dead Sea scrolls made such work more feasible. Maurice Casey gives a detailed examination of key passages in Matthew and Luke's gospels, demonstrating that they used two different Greek translations of an Aramaic source, which can be reconstructed. He overturns the conventional model of Q as a single Greek document, and shows that Jesus said everything in the original Aramaic source. Further analysis of other gospel passages shows the evangelists editing a Greek translation of an Aramaic source. On one, it can be shown that Mark utilises a different Aramaic source. A complex model of Q is thus proposed. Casey argues that Aramaic sources behind part of Q are of extremely early date, and should contribute significantly to the quest for the historical Jesus.

Book Aramaic Sources of Mark s Gospel

Download or read book Aramaic Sources of Mark s Gospel written by Maurice Casey and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1999-01-07 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1999 book was the first to use all the Aramaic Dead Sea Scrolls to reconstruct original Aramaic sources from parts of Mark's Gospel. The scrolls enabled the author to revolutionize the methodology of such work, and to reconstruct whole passages which he interpreted in their original cultural context. The passages from which sources are reconstructed are Mark 9.11-13; 2.23-3.6; 10.35-45; and 14.12-26. A detailed discussion of each passage is offered, demonstrating that these sources are completely accurate accounts from the ministry of Jesus, from early sabbath disputes to his final Passover. An account of the translation process is given, showing how problems in Mark's text arose from the difficulty of translating some Aramaic expressions into Greek, including the notoriously difficult 'son of man'. A very early date for these sources is proposed, implying a date of c. 40 CE for Mark's Gospel.

Book Jesus and Israel s Traditions of Judgement and Restoration

Download or read book Jesus and Israel s Traditions of Judgement and Restoration written by Steven M. Bryan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-05-02 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus and Israel's Traditions of Judgement and Restoration examines the eschatology of Jesus by evaluating his appropriation of sacred traditions related to Israel's restoration. It addresses the way in which Jesus' future expectations impinged upon his understanding of key features of Jewish society. Scholars have long debated the degree to which Jesus' eschatology can be said to have been realized. This 2002 book considers Jesus' expectations regarding key constitutional features of the eschaton: the shape of the people of God, purity, Land and Temple. Bryan shows that Jesus' anticipation of coming national judgement led him to use Israel's sacred traditions in ways that differed significantly from their use by his contemporaries. This did not lead Jesus to the conviction that Israel's restoration had been delayed. Instead he employed Israel's traditions to support a different understanding of restoration and a belief that the time of restoration had arrived.

Book Enoch and the Gospel of Matthew

Download or read book Enoch and the Gospel of Matthew written by Amy E. Richter and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-07-18 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matthew's Gospel contains material unique to it among the canonical Gospels. What is the background for this material? Why does the writer of Matthew's Gospel tell the story of Jesus in the way he does--including women in his genealogy, telling the story of the birth of Jesus in his particular way, and including the visit of the magi led by a star? Enoch and the Gospel of Matthew shows that the writer of Matthew was familiar with themes and traditions about the antediluvian patriarch Enoch, including the story of the fall of the angels called "watchers," who transgress their heavenly boundaries to engage in illicit relations with women and teach them forbidden arts. The Gospel writer shows that Jesus brings about the eschatological repair of the consequences of the watchers' fall as told in the Enochic legend. This study focuses on Matthew's genealogy and infancy narrative and also has implications for the study of women in Matthew, since it is often through the stories of women in Matthew that the repair of the watchers' transgression takes place.

Book Apocalyptic Eschatology in the Gospel of Matthew

Download or read book Apocalyptic Eschatology in the Gospel of Matthew written by David C. Sim and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-03-21 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1996 study reconstructs the apocalyptic eschatology in Matthew's Gospel so that we may understand his time and concerns. Sociological analysis of apocalypticism in Judaism and early Christianity shows that such a comprehensive world view, which emphasized the final judgement and its aftermath within a dualistic and deterministic framework, was adopted by minority of sectarian groups undergoing a situation of great crisis. The Matthean community, after the first Jewish war against Rome, came into conflict with Judaism, gentiles and the larger Christian movement. Matthew's distinctive and often vengeful vision must be set against both his acute need to enhance his community's sense of itself and his pastoral concern. Dr Sim offers for the first time in English an extended and comprehensive comparison of Matthew's outlook with contemporary eschatological literature.

Book The Sheep of the Fold

    Book Details:
  • Author : Edward W. Klink III
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2007-08-02
  • ISBN : 1139466704
  • Pages : 257 pages

Download or read book The Sheep of the Fold written by Edward W. Klink III and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-08-02 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last generation of gospel scholarship has considered the reconstruction and analysis of the audience behind the gospels as paradigmatic. The key hermeneutical template for reading the gospels has been the quest for the community that each gospel represents. This scholarly consensus regarding the audience of the gospels has been reconsidered. Using as a test case one of the most entrenched gospels, Edward Klink explores the evidence for the audience behind the Gospel of John. This study challenges the prevailing gospel paradigm by examining the community construct and its functional potential in early Christianity, the appropriation of a gospel text and J. L. Martyn's two-level reading of John, and the implied reader located within the narrative. The study concludes by proposing a more appropriate audience model for reading John, as well as some implications for the function of the gospel in early Christianity.

Book The Gospel of John

    Book Details:
  • Author : Rudolf Bultmann
  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2014-08-15
  • ISBN : 1498208258
  • Pages : 791 pages

Download or read book The Gospel of John written by Rudolf Bultmann and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 791 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the first volume in the Johannine Monograph Series, The Gospel of John: A Commentary by Rudolf Bultmann well deserves this place of pride. Indeed, this provocative commentary is arguably the most important New Testament monograph in the twentieth century, perhaps second only to The Quest of the Historical Jesus by Albert Schweitzer. In contrasting Bultmann's and Schweitzer's paradigms, however, we find that Bultmann's is far more technically argued and original, commanding hegemony among other early-Christianity paradigms. Ernst Haenchen has described Bultmann's commentary as a giant oak tree in whose shade nothing could grow, and indeed, this reference accurately describes its dominance among Continental Protestant scholarship over the course of several decades.
