Abstract

In this work, Anthony Giambrone investigates the appropriation and development of Jewish charity discourse in Luke's Gospel. In contrast to previous scholarship, neither the coherence of Lukan “wealth ethics” nor its contemporary actualization defines his study. Instead, the sacramental significance of almsgiving becomes the starting point for a more theologically oriented exegesis. The end result recognizes Luke's “Christological mutation” of the inherited tradition.The text is organized around three exegetical probes, each handling parabolic material: i.e. Luke 7:36–50, 10:25–37, and 16:1–31. The author advances an approach to these parables that highlights Christological allegory (metalepsis) as a Lukan narrative device. A break is thus implied with the dominant rationalist constructions of Luke's parabolic art and ethics. Also in contrast to a dominant trend, stress is laid upon Luke's Jewish rather than Greco-Roman context. To expose the distinctly Jewish character of his charity theology, each probe centers upon an Old Testament text and line of Second Temple reception linked to Luke: i.e. Isa 61:1–2 and 11Q13; Lev 19:18 and CD 6:20; and Prov 10:2 and Tobit.

Abstract

A Quest for the Historical Christ brings together a collection of interrelated essays on the historical Jesus and primitive Christology. Sensitive to the diverse, but traditionally Protestant assumptions and perspectives of the "Quest" as well as to the widely lamented disconnect between New Testament exegesis and classical dogmatic theology, an alternative approach is proposed in these pages. Ecumenical and conciliar reference points, along with non-confessional historical methods (e.g. archeology) shape the basic project, which nevertheless assumes some distinctive and important Catholic contours. The book is divided into three sections: Historical Foundations, Theological Perspectives, and Jesus and the Scriptures. While the individual chapters represent independent probes, the cumulative argument and arc of the study drives in clear and concerted directions. After a first approach to the Gospel data, attentive at once to historiographical and historical questions, a series of interventions reorienting the present scholarly discussion are suggested. These various, foundational essays lead, finally, to a sustained mediation on the mind of Christ, considered as a unique reader of the Scriptures: a meditation having its proper reflex and reflection in the way Christians themselves, as readers of the Gospels, participate in the Lord's own encounter with the living Word.

Abstract

In this volume, a leading Catholic scholar offers a biblical theology of the priesthood rooted in the Old and New Testaments. Half a millennium after the Protestant Reformation and in the midst of an ongoing clerical crisis in the Catholic Church, this book presents a comprehensive biblical vision and defense of the sacramental priesthood and an informed theological response to the problem of priestly sin. It gives expression to the ministerial priesthood's biblically grounded, sacramental share in the sacrificial ministry of Jesus Christ.

Abstract

This interdisciplinary collection of fifteen papers probes key aspects of the First Jewish Revolt from a wide variety of perspectives: archeology, Roman military, administration, and ethos, Second Temple Jewish society, and rabbinic and early Christian reception. Delivered at a large international conference organized at the Ecole biblique et archeologique francaise de Jerusalem in 2018, the contributions respond to many classic questions about the reliability of Josephus and interact in various ways with Steve Mason's major study, A History of the Jewish War (Cambridge, 2016), including his controversial views on the scope and religious nature of the conflict. Mason's own response comprises the final chapter.

Abstract

La science a beaucoup à dire sur qui fut Jésus de Nazareth. Dûment critiqués, les Evangiles rapportent sa vie et les découvertes d'une recherche archéologique hyperactive approfondissent chaque jour notre connaissance de la riche culture où il a déployé son action. C'est un paradoxe que la personnalité d'un homme du peuple ait à ce point capté l'attention de ses biographes et ouvert la voie à une passionnante recherche sur son identité, aux relents épiques d'une "quête du Graal" marquée par plus de deux siècles d'avancées et de retraites.Peut-être le temps d'une phase constructive est-il arrivé. En science, il n'existe pas de question taboue. Il est possible d'évaluer la prétention des évangélistes à se poser en historiens. Grecs et juifs pensaient selon un monothéisme à la fois inclusif et varié. Même la conscience de Jésus n'est pas un objet qui échappe à l'enquête : elle s'est structurée autour des Ecritures. Elle est d'abord littéraire, voire linguistique.Essayer de comprendre qui est Jésus, et ce qu'on dit de lui, à partir des traces qu'il laisse dans son énonciation. Beau programme, raisonnablement optimiste.
