Opis

In this third and last volume fifty-five more exegetical notes are brought together in nine sections (Matthew, Mark,...). My attempt remains to analyse as carefully as possible what the New Testament author meant and what the original readers must have understood. And what do these texts mean for us today? For the Synoptics diachronic redaction criticism is applied, as well as synchronic, narrative analysis. In Paul's reasoning often gaps have to be filled; sometimes his logic is complex. A canonical list of my collected essays since 1994 is added.
