Belief, event and meaning. 520 8 Volume 1: This first volume in the series Christian Origins and the Question of God provides a historical, theological, and literary study of first-century Judaism and Christianity. Wright offers a preliminary discussion of the meaning of the word god within those cultures, as he explores the ways in which developing an understanding of those first-century cultures are of relevance for the modern world. Volume 2: In this highly anticipated volume, N.T. Wright focuses directly on the historical Jesus: Who was he? What did he say? And what did he mean by it? Wright begins by showing how the questions posed by Albert Schweitzer a century ago remain central today. Then he sketches a profile of Jesus in terms of his prophetic praxis, his subversive stories, the symbols by which he reordered his world, and the answers he gave to the key questions that any world view must address. The examination of Jesus' aims and beliefs, argued on the basis of Jesus' actions and their accompanying riddles, is sure to stimulate heated response. Wright offers a provocative portrait of Jesus as Israel's Messiah who would share and bear the fate of the nation and would embody the long-promised return of Israel's God to Zion. Volume 3: Why did Christianity begin, and why did it take the shape it did? To answer this question, which any historian must face, renowned New Testament scholar N.T. Wright focuses on the key question: what precisely happened at Easter? What did the early Christians mean when they said that Jesus of Nazareth had been raised from the dead? What can be said today about this belief? This book ... sketches a map of ancient beliefs about life after death, in both the Greco-Roman and Jewish worlds. It then highlights the fact that the early Christians' belief about the afterlife belonged firmly on the Jewish spectrum, while introducing several new mutations and sharper definitions. This, together with other features of early Christianity, forces the historian to read the Easter narratives in the gospels, not simply as late rationalizations of early Christian spirituality, but as accounts of two actual events: the empty tomb of Jesus and his 'appearances.' How do we explain these phenomena? The early Christians' answer was that Jesus had indeed been bodily raised from the dead; that was why they hailed him as the messianic 'son of God.' No modern historian has come up with a more convincing explanation. Facing this question, we are confronted to this day with the most central issues of worldview and theology. Volume 4: This highly anticipated two-book ... volume in N.T. Wright's magisterial series ... is destined to become the standard reference point on the subject for all serious students of the Bible and theology. The mature summation of a lifetime's study, this landmark book pays a rich tribute to the breadth and depth of the apostle's vision, and offers an unparalleled wealth of detailed insights into his life, times, and enduring impact. Wright carefully explores the whole context of Paul's thought and activity Jewish, Greek and Roman, cultural, philosophical, religious, and imperial and shows how the apostle's worldview and theology enabled him to engage with the many -sided complexities of first-century life that his churches were facing. Wright also provides close and illuminating readings of the letters and other primary sources, along with critical insights into the major twists and turns of exegetical and theological debate in the vast secondary literature. The result is a rounded and profoundly compelling account of the man who became the world's first, and greatest, Christian theologian."-- Publisher descriptions. 630 00 Bible.|pNew Testament|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79023150|xTheology.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh2001008984 630 7 Bible.|pNew Testament.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1808090 630 07 Bible.|pNew Testament.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1808090 648 7 30 - 600|2fast 650 0 God|xBiblical teaching.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85055521 650 0 God (Christianity)|xHistory of doctrines|yEarly church, ca. 30-600.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85055526 650 0 Christianity|xOrigin.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85025231 650 7 God|xBiblical teaching.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/944045 650 7 God (Christianity)|xHistory of doctrines.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1735520 650 7 God (Christianity)|xHistory of doctrines|xEarly church. |2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1905770 650 7 Theology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1149559 650 7 Christianity|xOrigin.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 859622 740 02 New Testament and the people of God. 740 02 Jesus and the victory of God. 740 02 Resurrection of the Son of God. 740 02 Paul and the faithfulness of God. 901 MARCIVE 20231220 935 399262 948 |d20160930|clti|tlti-aex 994 C0|bRID
