The State in the New Testament

Descripción:

A concise, influential biblical-theological study on the New Testament's perspective on the state (primarily the Roman Empire), church-state relations, and political authority.Cullmann (1902?1999), a prominent Swiss New Testament scholar known for his Heilsgeschichte (salvation-history) approach, wrote this in the post-WWII context, addressing issues like totalitarianism while grounding his analysis firmly in exegesis. The book examines key New Testament passages and figures through four main sections: Jesus and the Resistance Movement of the Zealots; Jesus' Condemnation by the Roman State; Paul and the State; and The State in the Johannine Apocalypse.ABOUT THIS COPY: This softcover is green with black accents and white and black text.
