Deconstructing Jesus
Author: Robert M. Price
Publisher: Prometheus Books
ISBN: 1615921206
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
After more than a century of New Testament scholarship, it has become clear that the Jesus of the gospels is a fictive amalgam, reflecting the hopes and beliefs of the early Christian community and revealing very little about the historical Jesus. Over the millennia since the beginning of Christianity various congregations, from fundamentalist to liberal, have tended to produce a Jesus figurehead that functions as a symbolic cloak for their specific theological agendas. Through extensive research and fresh textual insights Robert M. Price paves the way for a new reconstruction of Christian origins. Moving beyond the work of Burton L. Mack and John Dominic Crossan on Jesus movements and Christ cults, which shows how the various Jesus figures may have amalgamated into the patchwork savior of Christian faith, Price takes an innovative approach. He links the work of F.C. Baur, Walter Bauer, Helmut Koester, and James M. Robinson with that of early Christ-myth theorists-two camps of biblical analysis that have never communicated. Arguing that perhaps Jesus never existed as a historical figure, Price maintains an agnostic stance, while putting many puzzles and scholarly debates in a new light. He also incorporates neglected parallels from Islam, the Baha'i Faith, and Buddhism. Deconstructing Jesus provides a valuable bridge between New Testament scholarship and early freethinkers in a refreshing cross-fertilization of perspectives.

Rediscovering the Rosary
Author: Antony Outhwaite

Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
With his apostolic letter Rosarium Virginis Mariae, Pope John Paul II set out to breathe new life into the Rosary, and to open up the treasures of that beloved but neglected devotion to a new generation of Catholics. This book makes practical use of the Holy Father's insights to reveal the Rosary not as a dusty relic of the pre-Vatican II past, but as a dynamic prayer for all the faithful, and a powerful method of drawing closer to Jesus and Mary through the power of meditation. This book on rediscovering the Rosary is a powerful little fire, fulfilling a need in the Church, the family, and the world of our time...Treasures are waiting for us as we rediscover the Rosary. This book is timely, simple, encouraging, and necessary for our day.Monsignor John Esseff, Diocese of Scranton
