Marcus J. Borg, John Dominic Crossan - The First Christmas: What the Gospels Really Teach About Jesus`s Birth
HarperOne, 2009
258 str.
meki povez
stanje: dobro
The perfect follow-up to The Last Week, Borg and Crossan`s The First Christmas is an account of the two nativity narratives in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. Borg and Crossan focus on discovering the actual literary story that the Gospels tell. Borg and Crossan feel that history has biased our readings of these texts; we are all so familiar with the nativity story that we don`t really hear it anymore. The First Christmas will help us see the nativity story afresh and be able to appreciate the powerful message the Gospels contain.
Who could argue with the message the authors draw from the Bible`s Christmas stories? Light in the darkest time of the year, hope in a period of creeping despair-these are powerful and universal themes that can give everyone a stake in Christmas.` - USA Today
Two authorities on the life of Jesus draw on the gospels of Matthew and Luke to tell the true story of Jesus`s birth and to place its lessons in context with the modern world.
Shows how history has biased our reading of the nativity story as it appears in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. This book explores the beginning of the life of Christ, peeling away the sentimentalism that has build up over two thousand years around this most well known of all stories to reveal the truth of what the Gospels actually say.
