Paperback. Zustand: New. A complete companion to one of the most often misunderstood non-canonical texts of the Apostoloc Fathers.The document now called the Second Letter of Clement was not originally a letter; nor was it written by Clement. Rather, it originated as an address to a congregation, and was subsequently preserved among the group of non-canonical writings known as the Apostolic Fathers. Unlike the much-studied First Clement, it is one of the least known of these writings, yet it preserves a fascinating window into the life of early believers.In his new study, William Varner combines a step-by-step commentary with a detailed theological introduction. Drawing on the text's structure and likely context, he shows that its overall message is that Christians should render a payback to God for his grace shown to them in Christ. The implications of this for the early church community at which it was directed, and for believers today, are momentous. …

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. VINTAGESTAN BOOKS Title: The Diet of John the Baptist by James A. Kelhoffer Summary: James A. Kelhoffer offers a comprehensive analysis of Mark 1:6c par. Matt 3:4c in its socio-historical context, the Synoptic gospels and subsequent Christian interpretation. The first chapter surveys various anecdotes about John's food in the Synoptic gospels and notes that there has never been a consensus in scholarship concerning John's 'locusts and wild honey.' Chapters 2 and 3 address locusts as human food and assorted kinds of 'wild honey' in antiquity. Chapter 4 considers the different meanings of this diet for the historical Baptist, Mark, and Matthew. Contemporary anthropological and nutritional data shed new light on John's experience as a locust gatherer and assess whether these foods could have actually sustained him in the wilderness. The last chapter demonstrates that the most prevalent interpretation of the Baptist's diet, from the third through the sixteenth centuries, hails John's simple wilderness provisions as a model for believers to emulate.

Gr.-8°, Ln. m. SU. Zustand: Wie neu. XXIII, 256 S. Neuwertiges Ex. / Fine Copy // James A. Kelhoffer bietet in dieser Monographie eine gründliche Analyse der Aussagen über die Nahrung des Täufers (Mk 1,6c par. Mt 3,4c) in ihrer historischen, soziologischen und auslegungsgeschichtlichen Dimension. Er beleuchtet die Praxis des Verzehrs von Heuschrecken in der Antike und die verschiedenen Arten von wildem Honig, reflektiert die mögliche Bedeutung dieser Nahrung für Johannes den Täufer und das Verständnis einer solchen Ernährung bei den synoptischen Evangelisten. Die Auslegungsgeschichte vom 3. bis zum 16. Jahrhundert zeigt, daß die Ernährung des Täufers weithin als asketisches Modell verstanden wurde, das den Gläubigen zur Nachahmung dienen sollte.

Gr.-8°, Ln. m. SU. Zustand: Wie neu. XXIII, 400 S. Neuwertiges Ex. / Fine Copy // Ganz gleich, ob er die Rolle der Exegese des Neuen Testaments in anderen wissenschaftlichen Disziplinen untersucht, die Unterdrückung der Wut in den paulinischen Schriften oder wann 'evangelion' als geschriebenes »Evangelium« verstanden wurde, die geduldige und vorsichtige Exegese James A. Kelhoffers bietet spannende Einblicke in das frühe Christentum. Er zeigt, dass viele Anstrengungen der frühchristlichen Gläubigen den innerkirchlichen Kampf widerspiegeln, der die Legitimität eines Standpunktes oder eines religiösen Führers gegenüber konkurrierenden Ideologien oder Anführern begründet. Die Leser, denen Kelhoffers bereits erschienene Bände 'Miracle and Mission' (2000), 'The Diet of John the Baptist' (2005) und 'Persecution, Persuasion and Power' (2010) bekannt sind, werden in diesem Band neue Einblicke erlangen, auf die in seinen bisherigen Werken hingewiesen, die aber noch nicht ausgearbeitet wurden.

Gr.-8°, Ln. m. SU. Zustand: Wie neu. XXII, 443 S. Neubuch / New Copy // James A. Kelhoffer untersucht einen häufig übersehenen Aspekt der Konstruktion christlicher Legitimität im Neuen Testament, die Bedeutung der Tatsache, daß Christen unter Verfolgung standhaft blieben und damit ihre religiöse Identität als Christi Nachfolger bestätigt haben. Das erste Kapitel beschreibt das Problem in Aufnahme des Begriffs des »kulturellen Kapitals« des französischen Soziologen Pierre Bourdieu. In Kapitel 2-10 untersucht der Autor die Darstellung der verfolgten Christen in den paulinischen Briefen, dem ersten Petrusbrief, dem Hebräerbrief, der Johannesapokalypse, den kanonischen Evangelien und der Apostelgeschichte. Dabei zeigt sich, daß Ansprüche auf Autorität mit dem Hinweis auf Verfolgung verbunden sind. Ein Epilog betrachtet spätere Beispiele der frühchristlichen Märtyrer und Bekenner ebenso das » Book of Martyrs » von John Foxe und erörtert im Blick auf antike und gegenwärtige Kontexte die ethischen und hermeneutischen Problem, die entstehen, wenn Legitimitätsansprüche durch den Hinweis auf Verfolgung begründet werden.
