Jesus
Author: Henry J. Cadbury
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1606082000
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 139
Book Description
Long before the New Quest for Jesus... Henry Cadbury followed his first book on Jesus, The Peril of Modernizing Jesus(1937) with a second a decade later. While still challenging our tendencies to confine the Master of Galilee to familiar programs and strategies, Jesus: What Manner of Man poses a more constructive approach to what might be known about the Jesus of history. In doing so, Cadbury focuses not simply on what he said and did, but more incisively on how Jesus taught and operated. Building on pressing questions about Jesus within the Gospels themselves, Cadbury brings their inquiry to bear on contemporary quests for Jesus with striking relevance. - from the new foreword by Paul N. Anderson, George Fox University

Parables as Subversive Speech
Author: William R. Herzog
Publisher: Westminster John Knox Press
ISBN: 9780664253554
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
William Herzog shows that the focus of the parables was not on a vision of the glory of the reign of God but on the gory details of the way oppression served the interests of the ruling class. The parables were a form of social analysis, as well as a form of theological reflection. Herzog scrutinizes their canonical form to show the distinction between its purpose for Jesus and for evangelists. To do this, he uses the tools of historical criticism, including form criticism and redaction criticism.

Jesus in Context
Author: Bruce D. Chilton
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004332472
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 584
Book Description
The Proclamation of Jesus seeks to place Jesus in the context of first-century Palestinian Judaism. The authors hope to discern the essence of his preaching, his concept of the kingdom of God, and the place of purity in his teaching and activities. Better methods for assessing not simply the authenticity of reported sayings and deeds, but for tracing the development of tradition are considered. The authors are convinced that most of the Synoptic tradition is authentic, but that much of it has been reinterpreted and recontextualized. Herein lies the real challenge for those investigating the historical Jesus. The Proclamation of Jesus opens up new avenues of study and makes new proposals for understanding Jesus in the context of his place and time.

How can Jesus said to be "missing"? References to Jesus are not missing, but rather a dimension of his identity. This text demonstrates that in order for us to understand Jesus and his influence, we need to see him within the context of the Judaism that was his own natural environment.
