ISBN: 9780060816162 / Angielski / Miękka / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) John Dominic Crossan, the eminent historical Jesus scholar, and Jonathan L. Reed, an expert in biblical archaeology, reveal through archaeology and textual scholarship that Paul, like Jesus, focused on championing the Kingdom of God--a realm of justice and equality--against the dominant, worldly powers of the Roman empire. Many theories exist about who Paul was, what he believed, and what role he played in the origins of Christianity. Using archaeological and textual evidence, and taking advantage of recent major discoveries in Italy, Greece, Turkey, and Syria, Crossan and Reed...

The First Edition of the New Testament
ISBN: 9780195112405 / Angielski / Twarda / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) The First Edition of the New Testament is a groundbreaking book that argues that the New Testament is not the product of a centuries-long process of development. Its history, David Trobisch finds, is the history of a book--an all Greek Christian bible--published as early as the second century C.E. and intended by its editors to be read as a whole. Trobisch claims that this bible achieved wide circulation and formed the basis of all surviving manuscripts of the New Testament.

Imperial Cults and the Apocalypse of John: Reading Revelation in the Ruins
ISBN: 9780195131536 / Angielski / Twarda / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) After more than a century of debate about the significance of imperial cults for the interpretation of Revelation, this is the first study to examine both the archaeological evidence and the Biblical text in depth. Friesen argues that a detailed analysis of imperial cults as they were practiced in the first century CE in the region where John was active allows us to understand John's criticism of his society's dominant values. He demonstrates the importance of imperial cults for society at the time when Revelation was written, and shows the ways in which John refuted imperial cosmology...

Who Rides the Beast?: Prophetic Rivalry and the Rhetoric of Crisis in the Churches of the Apocalypse
ISBN: 9780195138351 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) The Book of Revelation presents the reader with a frightening narrative world in which the people of God are tormented, threatened, and sometimes killed by various agents of Satan. Scholars have traditionally thought that it was written in order to encourage believers to stand fast in the face of the Roman persecution of the early Church. More recently, however, it has been argued that no such crisis existed at the time the book was written. Here Paul Duff offers a different viewpoint on the origin of the Book of Revelation, resulting in a work which substantially advances the implication of...

Reopening the Word: Reading Mark as Theology in the Context of Early Judaism
ISBN: 9780195143591 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) This book asks: How might the earliest gospel have been heard by those first followers of Jesus who were religious Jews? Assuming that the earliest Jesus traditions took their shape from forms familiar to Judaism, Sabin sets the composition of Mark in the context of the theological discourse of first-century Judaism. In that context, she notes, all theology was biblical. It took the form of an exchange between current events and Scripture: contemporary persons and happenings were understood through the lens of the Hebrew Bible, while at the same time, the biblical word was reopened--that is,...

Parables for Our Time: Rereading New Testament Scholarship After the Holocaust
ISBN: 9780195150520 / Angielski / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Over the centuries, New Testament texts have often been read in ways that reflect and encourage anti-Semitism. For example, the parable of the "wicked husbandmen," who kill the son of their landlord in order to seize the land, has been used to blame the Jews for the death of Christ. Since the Holocaust, Christian scholars have increasingly recognized and rejected this inheritance. In Parables for Our Time Tania Oldenhage seeks to fashion a biblical hermeneutics that consciously works with memories of the Holocaust. New Testament scholars have not directly confronted the horror of...

ISBN: 9780195306941 / Angielski / Twarda / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) It is commonplace that postmodern thought has problematized the concept of the self. This poses a particularly sharp problem for Christian theologians, for whom the idea of the person as a Christian self must be central. In this book John Meech addresses this problem by means of a theological hermeneutics that brings together cutting edge scholarship in biblical interpretation and constructive theology. The book comprises three major parts. In the first, Meech reflects on St. Paul's construal of Christian identity in light of what has become known as the "new paradigm" in Pauline studies....

Matthew's Christian-Jewish Community
ISBN: 9780226734217 / Angielski / Miękka / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) The most Jewish of gospels in its contents and yet the most anti-Jewish in its polemics, the Gospel of Matthew has been said to mark the emergence of Christianity from Judaism. Anthony J. Saldarini overturns this interpretation by showing us how Matthew, far from proclaiming the replacement of Israel by the Christian church, wrote from within Jewish tradition to a distinctly Jewish audience.
Recent research reveals that among both Jews and Christians of the first century many groups believed in Jesus while remaining close to Judaism. Saldarini argues that the author of the Gospel of...

Mark and Luke in Poststructuralist Perspectives: Jesus Begins to Write
ISBN: 9780300051971 / Angielski / Twarda / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) "What is the lesson of that other, newly sprung tree (the cross) in whose bark Mark has carved his Gospel (for this is a book that bleeds)? Is it that Jesus's body, grafted onto the cross, became one with it, and thus became tree, branch, book, and leaf, inscribed with letters of blood, can now at last be read, no longer an indecipherable code but an open codex? And that in its (now) re(a)d(able) ink, lately invisible, the message that was scratched into the fig tree is transcribed: outside the gates, but only just, the summer Son is shining in full strength?"--Stephen D. Moore

Echoes of Scripture in the Letters of Paul

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Paul's letters, the earliest writings in the New Testament, are filled with allusions, images, and quotations from the Old Testament, or, as Paul called it, Scripture.

His uncovering of scriptural echoes in Paul's language enriches our appreciation of the complex literary texture of Paul's letters and offers new insights into his message. "A major work on hermeneutics. . . . Hays's study will be a work to use and to reckon with for every...

A Rereading of Romans: Justice, Jews, and Gentiles
ISBN: 9780300070682 / Angielski / Miękka / 396 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Paul's Letter to the Romans is one of the most influential writings of Christian theology. From the time of Augustine it has been central in discussions about sin and salvation, about guilt, fear of God, and gratitude for God's mercy. In this groundbreaking reinterpretation, Stanley Stowers argues that Christian tradition has interpreted Romans in an anachronistic fashion fundamentally different from how readers in Paul's time would have read it. He provides a new reading that places Romans within the sociocultural, historical, and rhetorical contexts of Paul's world. Stowers challenges...
