"The name Hermann Gunkel is as familiar to biblical scholars as
their own. Gunkel founded a 'school, ' fathered form-critical
research, and taught most of the giants of the last generation. .
." --from the Introduction This little book, the first by Hermann
Gunkel, shattered the reigning images of the New Testament idea of
the Spirit. Gunkel's argument not only revolutionized the theology
of his time but has continued to be foundational for most
subsequent studies on the subject. As he did in so much of his
work, Gunkel not only explores the milieu of the New Testament but
also demonstrates the dependence of the biblical message upon its
religious environment. Hermann Gunkel was a leading exponent of the
History of Religions School and author of major historical-critical
studies of the Psalms and Genesis. He was editor of the monumental
Die Religion in Geschichte und Gegenwart, to which he contributed
over one hundred articles. Roy A. Harrisville is Professor of New
Testament Emeritus at Luther Seminary in Saint Paul, Minnesota. He
is the author of Fracture: The Cross as Irreconcilable in the
Language and Thought of the Biblical Writers and, with Walter
Sundberg, of The Bible in Modern Culture: Baruch Spinoza to Brevard
Childs. Philip A. Quanbeck II is Associate Professor and Chair of
Religion at Augsburg College in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Fortress
