ISBN: 9780664229917 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Judaism and Christianity both arose in times of empire, with roots in Persian, Hellenistic, and Roman periods. In order to understand these religious movements, we must first understand the history and society of these imperial cultures. In these formative years, wisdom and apocalyptic traditions flourished as two significant religious forms. In Scribes, Visionaries, and the Politics of Second Temple Judea, distinguished New Testament scholar Richard A. Horsley analyzes the function and meaning of these religious movements within their social context, providing essential background...

The Prophet Jesus and the Renewal of Israel: Moving Beyond a Diversionary Debate
ISBN: 9780802868077 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 161 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Debate over whether or not Jesus can be best interpreted within an -apocalyptic scenario- has continued to dominate historical Jesus studies since Schweitzer and Bultmann. In The Prophet Jesus and the Renewal of Israel Richard Horsley shows that the apocalyptic scenario -- with its supposed expectation of -the end of the world, - the fiery -last judgment, - and -the parousia of the Son of Man- -- is a modern scholarly construct that obscures the particulars of texts, society, and history.
Drawing on his wide-ranging earlier scholarship, Horsley refocuses and reformulates... Debate over whether or not Jesus can be best interpreted within an -apocalyptic scenario- has continued to dominate historical Jesus studies since Sch...

Jesus and Magic
ISBN: 9781498201728 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. It has become standard in modern interpretation to say that Jesus performed miracles, and even mainline scholarly interpreters classify Jesus's healings and exorcisms as miracles. Some highly regarded scholars have argued, more provocatively, that the healings and exorcisms were magic, and that Jesus was a magician. As Richard Horsley points out, if we make a critical comparison between modern interpretation of Jesus's healing and exorcism, on the one hand, and the Gospel stories and other ancient texts, on the other hand, it becomes clear that the miracle and magic are modern concepts,...

Jesus and Spiral of Violence
ISBN: 9780800627102 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. From this engrossing portrait of first-century Palestine, Jesus emerges as the catalyst of nonviolent social revolution that anticipates the renewal of Israel. This fascinating analysis opens up a new perspective of the Roman-dominated Jewish Palestine of Jesus' time, viewing it as an "imperial situation" in which individual acts of violence were responses to institutionalized repression and injustice. Richard A. Horsley reveals the fiercely nationalistic Zealots as largely the fabrication of historians and exposes the erroneous view of Jesus as the sober prophet of nonviolence. In claiming...
