Jesus in Geschichte und Bekenntnis

Zusatztext

This volume contains 19 essays by Petr Pokorný that provide a unique overview of Jesus research and early Christology. The author presents case studies dealing with the problem of the relationship between the first and early Christian christologies and the Jesus of history. They also examine Jesus research's theological basis and its relationship with systematic theology and philosophy as well as the methodology of critical Jesus research. Other essays answer individual questions on Jesus of Nazareth's relationship to John the Baptist, how Jesus related to Paul, and the language of the oldest traditions concerning Jesus. Furthermore, the author explores the Sermon on the Mount and its inner ethics structure, the Passion narrative, and how Jesus' role is presented in each of the gospels and non-Christian testimonies.
