Inhaltsangabe

The Teaching of Jesus, Vol. 2 of 2 presents a scholarly look at how Jesus understood the kingdom of God and how His teaching relates to the Old Testament revelation. It examines why Jesus saw His mission as directed to both proclamation and action, and how His life, death, and message fit into a larger biblical story.

Drawing on gospel sources, this volume explores the development of Jesus’ ideas about suffering, the Messiah, and the future of God’s kingdom. It also compares the perspectives in the Johannine discourses with those of the synoptic accounts, showing how early Christian understanding grew fromJesus’ own experiences and aims.

• How Jesus treats Scripture as authority and how He uses it in teaching and debate.


• The evolution of the idea that His death would advance God’s kingdom.


• Connections between Jesus’ message and Old Testament expectations.


• Discussions about the heavenly future and the earthly development of the kingdom.

Ideal for readers seeking a rigorous, historical look at the integrity and scope of Jesus’ teaching and its place in early Christian thought.
