Apparently Jesus Really Was ApocalypticVantage Press, Inc, 2007 - 64 pagini Apparently Jesus Really Was Apocalyptic is an exciting new entry into the apocalyptic debate about Jesus. The author structures a chronological review of Christian writings and analyzes the "Son of Man" sayings, concluding that Jesus was refering to the cosmic "Son of Man" of Jewish tradition, not himself. Therefore, these sayings are not predictions of a second coming of Jesus but instead appear to support the idea that Jesus believed the kingdom of God of centuries-old Jewish apocalyptic expectation would be on Earth during his lifetime. |
