Jesus of NazarethHarper, 1960 - 239 Seiten One of Europe's leading New Testament scholars has written a book that may well be a turning point in modern biblical understanding. While Gunther Bornkamm admits, with Schweitzer and others, that it remains impossible to write a "biography" of Jesus, he shows in this book that it is possible to arrive at a reliable understanding of Jesus' thought and teaching and to achieve a historically sound picture of the sort of person Jesus was as well as what he was trying to accomplish. Within the New Testament there is a hard core of authentic sayings, he maintains, and the aim of his work is to help the reader recognize and understand these sayings. Bornkamm's study is one of those rare books that appeals to both the trained theologian and the inquiring layperson. He carefully defines his terms while encouraging the reader to explore and to think. In the tradition of Bultmann, Bornkamm strikes out into new fields which promise to enrich and expand our understanding of Jesus and his message for humanity. -Publisher |
