Abstract

La croix du Golgotha: dans la vie de Jésus, c’est l’événement dont l’historicité est réputée la plus fiable et le sens le plus énigmatique. Qu’un homme meure fait partie de sa condition, dès la naissance. Que le «Fils de Dieu» trépasse constitue un désaveu de la toute-puissance divine.Cette tension accompagne toute l’histoire du christianisme: depuis les origines, les croyants en Jésus ont tenu ensemble la factualité de cette mort en croix, châtiment antique particulièrement cruel, et la nécessité d’en comprendre le sens.C’est ce saisissant travail d’interprétation que le présent volume collectif, fruit d’un cours public, retrace. Esquissant un parcours de l’apôtre Paul au Coran, en passant par l’Évangile de Pierre ou encore les Actes de Pilate, il s’ouvre sur la réception de la crucifixion au diapason des enjeux écologiques contemporains.

Abstract

Colleen Conway looks at the construction of masculinity in New Testament depictions of Jesus. The themes that emerge include the relationship between divinity and masculinity in the Roman world and in depictions of Jesus, the role of the body in relation to gender identity, and belief in Jesus as a path to a more ideal form of masculinity.

Abstract

"How are the resurrection appearances of Luke's Gospel shaped to offer a climax to the narrative? How does this narrative conclusion compare to the wider ancient literary milieu? Recognition and the Resurrection Appearances of Luke 24 proposes that the ancient literary technique of recognition offers a compelling lens through which to understand the climatic role of the resurrection appearances of Jesus as depicted in Luke 24. After presenting the development of recognition in ancient Jewish and Greco-Roman literature, Thompson demonstrates how Luke 24 deploys the recognition tradition to shape the form and function of the resurrection appearances. The ancient recognition tradition not only casts light on various literary and theological features of the chapter but also shapes the way the appearances function in the wider narrative. By utilizing recognition, Luke 24 generates cognitive, affective, commissive, and hermeneutical functions for the characters internal to the narrative and for the audience. The result is a compelling climax to Luke's Gospel that resonates with Luke's wider literary and theological themes. This work offers a compelling analysis of the Luke's Gospel in the ancient literary context in light of the ancient technique of recognition that will appeal to those interested in narrative approaches to the New Testament or the interpretation of the New Testament in the wider literary milieu."

Abstract

In this book, Ligita Ryliskyte addresses what is arguably the most important and profound question in systematic theology: What does it mean for humankind to be saved by the cross? Offering a constructive account of the atonement that avoids pitting God's saving love against divine justice, she provides a biblically-grounded and philosophically disciplined theology of the cross that responds to the exigencies of postmodern secular culture. Ryliskyte draws on Bernard J. F. Lonergan's development of the Augustinian-Thomist tradition to argue that the justice of the cross concerns the orderly communication and diffusion of divine friendship. It becomes efficacious in the dynamic order of the emergent universe through the transformation of evil into good out of love. Showing how inherited theological traditions can be transposed in new contexts, Ryliskyte's book reveals a Christology of fundamental significance for contemporary systematic theology, as well as the fields of theological ethics and Christian spirituality.
