This book interprets Mark's gospel in light of the Roman-Jewish War of 66-70 CE. Locating the authorship of Mark's gospel in rural Galilee or southern Syria after the fall of Jerusalem and the temple, and after Vespasian's enthronement as the new emperor, Kimondo argues that Mark's first hearers--people who lived through and had knowledge of the important events of the war--may have evaluated Mark's story of Jesus as a contrast to Roman imperial values. He makes an intriguing case that Jesus' proclamation as the Messiah in the villages of Caesarea Philippi set up a deliberate contrast between Jesus's teaching and Vespasian's proclamation of himself as the world's divine ruler. He suggests that Mark's hearers may have interpreted Jesus' liberative campaign in Galilee as a deliberate contrast to Vespasian's destructive military campaigns in the area. Jesus's teachings about wealth, power, and status while on the way to Jerusalem may have been heard as contrasts to Roman imperial values; hence, the entire story of Jesus may have been interpreted an anti-imperial narrative.

This is a document depicting a radically different Jesus from the one we have always been presented with. A Jewish man firmly rooted in his historical context, as well as a living corollary to it-a link, actually, in the prophetic tradition from where he emerges. A fascinating, human, passionate Jesus who loves life, who is both sensitive and critical, who is deeply concerned about his people and who contrasts sharply with the ethereal, evanescent Jesus depicted by modern Christianity. Research shows that Jesus meant to create a kingdom of love and peace on Jewish territory, and that the Christian kingdom of heaven was presented by the canonical gospels when the Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 CE. Let us remember that the Gospel of Mark dates back to this year, and that of Matthew's to somewhere between the years 80 and 90 CE. The Gospel of Luke covers a slightly more comprehensive range, but it is framed within the same time span. The latest of them all, the Gospel of John, can be traced back to the last few years of the 1st century. All of this means that these gospels were drafted by people who were not there at the time of the actual events narrated, who were not witnesses to any of them, and who ultimately did not meet Jesus. These gospels agree on their words about Jesus, but they will oftentimes show differences in their event descriptions. In addition to having an overt apologetic intent, the texts seek to adapt their content to the political scenario at the time. The year 66 CE marked the beginning of the First Jewish-Roman War, which ended in 70 CE with the destruction of the Jewish Temple. Soon enough, in the years 113 and 132 CE, two more wars followed, resulting in the Jewish diaspora and in Jews' complete exile of their territory. Christianity continued to spread across the Roman Empire, which meant it had to take some distance from its Jewish roots and become more acceptable to Roman standards. This may be the reason why, among many other depictions, a well-known executioner such as Pontius Pilate, whose term in government ended abruptly after being removed and transferred to Gaul on the grounds of his extreme repression, is presented as a man eager to save Jesus's life, and yet, ultimately spares the life of a Zealot such as Barabbas. The need to adapt to the political atmosphere of the Roman Empire also meant that the kingdom of God, whose realization Jesus witnessed on earth-as the Jewish culture always did-became the idea of Heaven in the Christian doctrine that followed. Julio Millares won the Vargas Llosa Prize for novels and the Imaginaria Prize for children's stories. He lived in Brazil, Italy, France, Mexico and Sweden before returning to his native Argentina. He is a professor at the Faculty of Arts of the National University of Cuyo.

This study investigates the issues of the origin and purpose of the Gospel of Mark. The author argues that Mark’s Gospel was written in Galilee some time after the Jewish Revolt in 70 AD for a Christian audience that was living under the threat of persecution. The first part of the book examines the situation of Mark’s intended readers, and the nature of and reasons for their persecution. The second part establishes in what way the Gospel addresses the situation of Mark’s original readers.

In this engaging treatment of the Gospel of Mark, Dawn Ottoni Wilhelm combines biblical scholarship with a close reading of the Gospel text to meet the needs of preachers today. Swift and purposeful, the Gospel of Mark proclaims God's reign and urges the participation of all God's people in the witness of the good news that God has transformed human reality through Jesus Christ. This insightful commentary helps that message come alive while providing pertinent suggestions about how preachers can proclaim this message to today's churchgoers.

Republican Jesus written by Tony Keddie and has been published by Univ of California Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2021-09-09 with Political Science categories.
The complete guide to debunking right-wing misinterpretations of the Bible—from economics and immigration to gender and sexuality. Jesus loves borders, guns, unborn babies, and economic prosperity and hates homosexuality, taxes, welfare, and universal healthcare—or so say many Republican politicians, pundits, and preachers. Through outrageous misreadings of the New Testament gospels that started almost a century ago, conservative influencers have conjured a version of Jesus that speaks to their fears, desires, and resentments. In Republican Jesus, Tony Keddie explains not only where this right-wing Christ came from and what he stands for but also why this version of Jesus is a fraud. By restoring Republicans’ cherry-picked gospel texts to their original literary and historical contexts, Keddie dismantles the biblical basis for Republican positions on hot-button issues like Big Government, taxation, abortion, immigration, and climate change. At the same time, he introduces readers to an ancient Jesus whose life experiences and ethics were totally unlike those of modern Americans, conservatives and liberals alike.
