Jesus of Nazareth

Front Cover
Walter de Gruyter, 1998 - Bibles - 386 pages
A German New Testament scholar presents a new, historically grounded explanation of the phrases Kingdom of God and God's Reign, as the central terms of Jesus' proclamation. He draws on a wide range of sources to clarify Jesus' position within early Judaism, but mainly focuses on his ministry as the beginning of the history of early Christianity. No date or publisher is mentioned for the original Jesus von Nazaret. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
