Paul and the Heritage of Israel - Paul's Claim upon Israel's Legacy in Luke and Acts in the Light of the Pauline... Paul and the Heritage of Israel - Paul's Claim upon Israel's Legacy in Luke and Acts in the Light of the Pauline Letters (Hardcover, New)
David P. Moessner, Daniel Marguerat, Mikeal C Parsons, Michael Wolter
R4,716 Discovery Miles 47 160 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

As a sequel to the hugely successful Jesus and the Heritage of Israel this book brings together fourteen internationally acclaimed scholars in antiquities studies and experts on Paul and Luke. The contributors provoke new approaches to the troubled relation of the Lukan Paul by re-configuring the figure and impact of Paul upon nascent Christianity, with the two leading questions as a driving force. First, 'Who is "Israel" and the "church" for Luke and Luke's Paul' and secondly 'Who is Jesus of Nazareth and who is Paul in relation to both?' The contributors provide challenging new perspectives on approaches to the figure of Paul in recent scholarship as well as in the scholarship of previous generations, 're-figuring' Paul by examining both how he is portrayed in Acts, and how the Pauline figure of Acts may be envisioned within Paul's own writings. Paul and the Heritage of Israel thus accomplishes what no other single volume has done: combining both the 'Paul of Paul' and the 'Paul of Luke' in one seminal volume. >

The First Christian Historian - Writing the 'Acts of the Apostles' (Paperback, New Ed): Daniel Marguerat The First Christian Historian - Writing the 'Acts of the Apostles' (Paperback, New Ed)

As the first historian of Christianity, Luke's reliability is vigorously disputed among scholars. The author of the Acts is often accused of being a biased, imprecise, and anti-Jewish historian who created a distorted portrait of Paul. Daniel Marguerat tries to avoid being caught in this true/false quagmire when examining Luke's interpretation of history. Instead he combines different tools - reflection upon historiography, the rules of ancient historians and narrative criticism - to analyse the Acts and gauge the historiographical aims of their author. Marguerat examines the construction of the narrative, the framing of the plot and the characterization, and places his evaluation firmly in the framework of ancient historiography, where history reflects tradition and not documentation. This is a fresh and original approach to the classic themes of Lucan theology: Christianity between Jerusalem and Rome, the image of God, the work of the Spirit, the unity of Luke and the Acts.

Luke's Acts of the Apostles is the only documentation available on the birth of Christianity, despite the author's vigorously disputed reliability as a historian. Daniel Marguerat avoids this true/false quagmire by establishing his evaluation of Luke's talent as an historian within the framework of ancient historiography (the rules of ancient historians and narrative criticism). His study portrays Luke as a skillful and sound theologian, and provides an original approach to the classic themes of Lucan theology.

Reading the Acts of the Apostles is still essential to our knowledge of the beginnings of Christianity. The question is how credible Luke's historical account is from today's perspective. Daniel Marguerat's commentary wants to overcome the alternative between historical credibility and narrative fiction. To this end, he innovatively combines historical criticism and narrative analysis. On the one hand, he examines Luke's narrative art in order to grasp his interpretation of the events. The comparison with the Graeco-Roman historians makes it possible to recognize the rules of composition used. On the other hand, Marguerat looks for the possible traditions that Luke used. This methodological approach allows a new perspective on the work of Luke as the "first Christian historian". This commentary was originally written in French and is now available in German for the first time.
