Book The Fall of Jerusalem and the Christian Church

Download or read book The Fall of Jerusalem and the Christian Church written by S. G. F. Brandon and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What lies between the authoritative preeminence of the Mother Church of Jerusalem and the virtual extinction both of its life and apparently of all its local records? Dr. Brandon finds that the full significance of the fall of Jerusalem in AD 70 has been strangely neglected amongst scholars. In this original and exhaustive study he shows that this catastrophic event was of profound importance not only for the development of early Christianity but possibly also for its very survival. Besides an ordered survey of other ancient historians, this book demonstrates an extensive study of New Testament origins, and many will find special interest in the light it throws upon the origin and purpose of canonical works. This book faces serious problems of New Testament study that have generally been too easily dismissed, and it makes a definite and original contribution towards their solution.

Download or read book When Christians Were Jews written by Paula Fredriksen and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling account of Christianity’s Jewish beginnings, from one of the world’s leading scholars of ancient religion How did a group of charismatic, apocalyptic Jewish missionaries, working to prepare their world for the impending realization of God's promises to Israel, end up inaugurating a movement that would grow into the gentile church? Committed to Jesus’s prophecy—“The Kingdom of God is at hand!”—they were, in their own eyes, history's last generation. But in history's eyes, they became the first Christians. In this electrifying social and intellectual history, Paula Fredriksen answers this question by reconstructing the life of the earliest Jerusalem community. As her account arcs from this group’s hopeful celebration of Passover with Jesus, through their bitter controversies that fragmented the movement’s midcentury missions, to the city’s fiery end in the Roman destruction of Jerusalem, she brings this vibrant apostolic community to life. Fredriksen offers a vivid portrait both of this temple-centered messianic movement and of the bedrock convictions that animated and sustained it.

Book A History of the First Christians

Download or read book A History of the First Christians written by Alexander J. M. Wedderburn and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work provides a survey of the history of the earliest Christian church in the period up to the fall of Jerusalem. It concentrates on: the figure of Paul; judicious and critical use of information in the Book of Acts; Judaizing versions of Christianity; and the Johannine tradition. The approach steers a middle way between an over-simplified account which fails to warn students where scholarly opinion is divided, and an in-depth academic study which attempts to document and discuss every hypothesis. Wedderburn focuses on aspects of central importance: the changing shape of church life and developing Christianity in relation to the Roman Empire and to Judaism. This book seeks to draw together and make more readily accessible many new insights gained from an enormous range of recent scholarly studies in German and English, and places them in the context of a more general account.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Illustrated throughout in four-color pictures, Jesus and First-Century Christianity in Jerusalem traces the little-known story of the original Jewish-Christian community. Focusing on the first century (33-135 CE) in Jerusalem after the death of Jesus, the authors of this book present evidence to show that the Jerusalem community remained true to their Jewish heritage and had a connection with the Essenes. Jesus and First-Century Christianity in Jerusalem brings to light Christianity's Jewish connections and an appreciation of Christianity's Jewish heritage."--BOOK JACKET.

Book James  Brother of Jesus  and the Jerusalem Church

Download or read book James Brother of Jesus and the Jerusalem Church written by Alan Saxby and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-04-08 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James, Brother of Jesus, and the Jerusalem Church opens fresh ground in our understanding of Christian origins through an exploration of the role of James in the founding of the church. Based on the author's doctoral research, that first Christian church, with its roots in the Baptist movement, is shown to be part of the broad contemporary Judaic movement for the restoration of Israel. The events surrounding the death of Jesus (their leader's brother) both confirmed their commitment to Judaic reform and transformed their understanding of it. Despite the impact of that experience, they seem to have had neither knowledge nor interest in the teaching and ministry of Jesus in Galilee. Set in the world of James, this careful study of the difficulties and opportunities facing Judaic peasants in first-century Palestine proposes that James and his other brothers moved to Jerusalem (where work was available) several years before the final visit of Jesus and, under James's leadership, became the kernel of a growing group of followers of the Baptist that would later emerge onto the page of history as the Jerusalem Church.

  • Author : Robert Cook
  • Publisher : Tate Publishing
  • Release : 2010-03
  • ISBN : 1615665463
  • Pages : 124 pages

Download or read book The Jerusalem Church written by Robert Cook and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of the absolute biblical truth is fading away, and it is being replaced by seeker-sensitive doctrine that desires not to offend. It seeks the pleasure of this world and not the things of God. The church has been led astray by a desire be accepted and to fit in. But by forsaking scriptural integrity, the body of Christ can largely be seen chasing spiritual rabbit trails, entangled in every sort of worldly device. But God is calling his church back to basics. And what are the basics? Taking us back to the early church's beliefs, Robert Cook brings clarity to the murky waters of supposed Christian tradition. By illuminating the worldview that Christ gave to his followers, The Jerusalem Church gives us the pure doctrines of the church before it was entrenched in heresy, corruption, and wealth. You will learn more about: - The origins of Christmas - The Eucharist - The doctrine of hell - Eschatology - And more!
