Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Trial of Jesus: From Jewish Sources Many of my readers are doubtless familiar with the fact that there are traditions current in Jewish history concerning the life and death of Jesus which differ somewhat from those handed down by the Christian Church. What will probably surprise them is the statement that, though these traditions do differ from the nar ratives of the New Testament, they do not in the least oppose or contradict, but, on the contrary, rather confirm and corroborate the accounts of the Apostles. In many cases these traditions throw new light on the events; show the true na ture and the undisclosed plans of the principal men of those days. They reveal to us the true character of those who played an important part in the great drama enacted at Jerusalem nineteen hundred years ago. They raise the curtain of obscurity from the stage of those days, and pre sent to our gaze adistinct and clear picture of the happenings at that epoch-making period. These Jewish traditions rather supplement the account of the Bible, and, if placed side by side with the gospel account, would give a new interpretation to those great events. The two explain each other, the one supplying what was omitted by the other. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book JESUS written by Rabbi David Zaslow and published by Paraclete Press. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bold, fresh look at the historical Jesus and the Jewish roots of Christianity challenges both Jews and Christians to re-examine their understanding of Jesus’ commitment to his Jewish faith. Instead of emphasizing the differences between the two religions, this groundbreaking text explains how the concepts of vicarious atonement, mediation, incarnation, and Trinity are actually rooted in classical Judaism. Using the cutting edge of scholarly research, Rabbi Zaslow dispels the myths of disparity between Christianity and Judaism without diluting the unique features of each faith. Jesus: First Century Rabbi is a breath of fresh air for Christians and Jews who want to strengthen and deepen their own faith traditions.
Download or read book The Jewish Jesus written by Zev Garber and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2011-04-12 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a general understanding within religious and academic circles that the incarnate Christ of Christian belief lived and died a faithful Jew. This volume addresses Jesus in the context of Judaism. By emphasizing his Jewishness, the authors challenge today’s Jews to reclaim the Nazarene as a proto-rebel rabbi and invite Christians to discover or rediscover the Church’s Jewish heritage. The essays in this volume cover historical, literary, liturgical, philosophical, religious, theological, and contemporary issues related to the Jewish Jesus. Several of them were originally presented at a three-day symposium on “Jesus in the Context of Judaism and the Challenge to the Church,” hosted by the Samuel Rosenthal Center for Judaic Studies at Case Western Reserve University in 2009. In the context of pluralism, in the temper of growing interreligious dialogue, and in the spirit of reconciliation, encountering Jesus as living history for Christians and Jews is both necessary and proper. This book will be of particular interest to scholars of the New Testament and Early Church who are seeking new ways of understanding Jesus in his religious and cultural milieu, as well Jewish and Christian theologians and thinkers who are concerned with contemporary Jewish and Christian relationships.

Book Synopsis Scripting Jesus by : L. Michael White
Download or read book Scripting Jesus written by L. Michael White and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2010-04-15 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Scripting Jesus, Michael White, famed scholar of early Christian history, reveals how the gospel stories of Jesus were never meant to be straightforward historical accounts, but rather were scripted and honed as performance pieces for four different audiences with four different theological agendas. As he did as a featured presenter in two award-winning PBS Frontline documentaries (“From Jesus to Christ” and “Apocalypse!”), White engagingly explains the significance of some lesser-known aspects of The New Testament; in this case, the development of the stories of Jesus—including how the gospel writers differed from one another on facts, points of view, and goals. Readers of Elaine Pagels, Marcus Borg, John Dominic Crossan, and Bart Ehrman will find much to ponder in Scripting Jesus.
Book Synopsis Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews by : Paula Fredriksen
Download or read book Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews written by Paula Fredriksen and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-11-07 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paula Fredriksen, renowned historian and author of From Christ to Jesus, begins this inquiry into the historic Jesus with a fact that may be the only undisputed thing we know about him: his crucifixion. Rome reserved this means of execution particularly for political insurrectionists; and the Roman charge posted at the head of the cross indicted Jesus for claiming to be King of the Jews. To reconstruct the Jesus who provoked this punishment, Fredriksen takes us into the religious worlds, Jewish and pagan, of Mediterranean antiquity, through the labyrinth of Galilean and Judean politics, and on into the ancient narratives of Paul's letters, the gospels, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and Josephus' histories. The result is a profound contribution both to our understanding of the social and religious contexts within which Jesus of Nazareth moved, and to our appreciation of the mission and message that ended in the proclamation of Jesus as Messiah.
Book Synopsis Christ's View of the Kingdom of God by : William Manson
Download or read book Christ's View of the Kingdom of God written by William Manson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christ's View of the Kingdom of God: A Study in Jewish Apocalyptic and in the Mind of Jesus Christ; Bruce Lectures The following pages incorporate a series of Bruce Lectures given in the Theological College of the United Free Church, Glasgow, in 1914. Various circumstances have delayed their preparation for publication, and in. The form in which they now appear almost nothing remains of the original lectures except the argument. It is hoped, however, that by this delay and revision the argument has gained in clearness and in force, especially as it has been possible to relate it in some degree to events and aspirations of the present time. The book is issued in the hope that it may be of service to students of the Gospels, for whom the Eschatological Question still constitutes the gateway to all higher and fuller historical understanding of these precious documents. The writer is indebted to many, both teachers and friends, who have helped him, above all to the revered and beloved teacher, at Whose suggestion the task of preparing these lectures was first undertaken. What he owed to Dr. James Denney for counsel and encouragementfhefcan, however, never adequately tell. The literary references are given in the foot notes. In the preparation of the book for the press the writer has been greatly assisted by Prof. John E. Mcfadyen, and he is specially indebted to Prof. H. R. Mackintosh for his kindness in contributing the Introductory Note. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Jesus and the Thought of the World (Classic Reprint) by : Rabbi Martin a Meyer
Download or read book Jesus and the Thought of the World (Classic Reprint) written by Rabbi Martin a Meyer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jesus and the Thought of the World Friends, in one way I rejoice in the triunity, in which I have the honor to be the first speaker; in another sense I regret it. I rejoice that we can discuss such a theme that you have invited me, a Jew, to discuss this matter with you. On the other hand I regret its futility, save as regards the liberal attitude it may encourage, for, after all is said and done, you are not going to be persuaded by me, and I fancy I shall not be persuaded by you. It reminds me of the public disputations held in the Middle Ages between Jews and Catholics; the futile result was usually the same. The Jews went away feeling they had presented irrefutable arguments on their side, and the Cath olics, to disprove these arguments, generally caused many Jews either to be put to death or to be forcibly baptized; so, of course, the question remained just where it was for both parties. It goes without saying that we are talking as friends, honest friends, one with the other, just as honestly as I should expect that a Christian would discuss some point in my Jewish belief with me - differing from me naturally, because he is a Christian and I am a Jew, agreeing with me at certain points because he is a Christian and I am a Jew. Yet each of us must frankly present his own point of view without malice, with no idea of controversy, yet each emphasizing his angle of vision. Frankly, the whole matter of the world's views of the person of Jesus is one of those subjects that I feel will only be understood by the presentation of every point of view. I have spent my last week, not in reading what the Jews have to say about Jesus, but reading a Roman Catholictreatise telling me what the Catholic Church has to say about Christ, so that I might thoroughly appreciate what the orthodox view of his life is. Orthodox Judiasm has nothing to do, absolutely nothing to do, with Jesus or Christianity. No Jew could ever understand how the religion preaching love could have per secuted the Jews and Judaism unfailingly, generation after generation. The result on the part of the orthodox Jew was an unqualified contempt for everything Christian. Nor did he hesitate to express his feelings in this matter. It crystallized itself in a Hebrew version of the life of Jesus, in which all the facts of that life were explained on a frankly naturalistic basis. It further expressed itself in an abundant polemic and apologetic literature, in which these bold spirits placed the Jewish viewpoint before a hostile world. It indulged freely in criticism of Christian doctrines; contradicted the prevailing Christian exegesis of the Old Testament and even did not hesitate to speak its mind of Christian practices and persecutions. It was the frank expression of a self-reliant, self-intelligent group, who feared nothing more than faithlessness to its ideal. Many a one paid for his boldness with his life, after hav ing been subjected to unspeakable torture; but once under stand the point of view of this little handful of rejected and misunderstood people, as found in the literature of the Jew of the Middle Age, and you can appreciate the spirit of the Jew in all ages. If you want to understand that remarkable age of history you must remember that the dark ages of Christianity were parallel with an age of um paralleled spiritual and intellectual glory for the Jew; that it was not until the year 1492, after the world seemed to have refused its last resting-place to the Jew, that what we regard as the dark ages of Jewry had their beginning.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jesus, the Divine Messiah: An Address to JewsThat he was to be a man, is evident from the primeval promise in Eden, where he is described as the seed of the woman, as also from the assurances elsewhere recorded, that he should be the offspring of Abraham, and the son of David. But this point is admitted by the Jews. And need not be fauber insisted upon. Their Scriptures, however, speak with much distinctness of a higher nature. He was to be the Son of God in a sense which supposes equality and indeed oneness with God. The names and the attributes of humanity are ascribed to him, and we know him to be a man. In like manner are we taught his Divinity, by the ascription to him of the names and attributes, the works and glory which are peculiar to God.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Jesus of Nazareth by : Paul Verhoeven
Download or read book Jesus of Nazareth written by Paul Verhoeven and published by Seven Stories Press. This book was released on 2011-11-29 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on the work of biblical scholars—Rudolph Bultmann, Raymond Brown, Jane Schaberg, and Robert Funk, among others—filmmaker Paul Verhoeven disrobes the mythical Jesus to reveal a man who has much in common with other great political leaders throughout history—human beings who believed that change was coming in their lifetimes. Gone is the Jesus of the miracles, gone the son of God, gone the weaver of arcane parables whose meanings are obscure. In their place Verhoeven gives us his vision of Jesus as a complete man, someone who was changed by events, the leader of a political movement, and, perhaps most importantly, someone who, in his speeches and sayings, introduced a new ethic in which the embrace of human contradictions transcends the mechanics of value and worth that had defined the material world before Jesus. "The Romans saw [Jesus] as an insurrectionist, what today is often called a terrorist. It is very likely there were ‘wanted’ posters of him on the gates of Jerusalem. He was dangerous because he was proclaiming the Kingdom of Heaven, but this wasn’t the Kingdom of Heaven as we think of it now, some spectral thing in the future, up in the sky. For Jesus, the Kingdom of Heaven was a very tangible thing. Something that was already present on Earth, in the same way that Che Guevara proclaimed Marxism as the advent of world change. If you were totalitarian rulers, running an occupation like the Romans, this was troubling talk, and that was why Jesus was killed." —Paul Verhoeven, from profile by Mark Jacobson in New York Magazine
