Steve Moyise se hluboce zabývá tím, jak Nový zákon používá a reinterpretuje Starý zákon. Jeho práce zkoumá, jak raní křesťané chápali Písmo, a osvětluje spojení mezi starověkými a novodobými biblickými texty. Moyiseho analýzy odhalují složité způsoby, jakými jsou biblické texty vzájemně propojeny, a nabízejí čtenářům nové pohledy na teologické a literární dědictví.
This book focuses on the question that will be of most interest to readers: Was the Birth of Jesus according to Scripture? It outlines the debate between those who think that Matthew and Luke devised their narratives on the basis of specific Old Testament texts and those who think the Gospel narratives have determined the choice of those texts.
This classic introduction to Biblical Studies, now in its third edition, provides students with the perfect resource for approaching the Bible.
Previous edition: New York; London: Continuum, 2001.
Focusing on the use of Scripture in the New Testament's later writings, this book offers an accessible introduction to how texts from the Old Testament are referenced and interpreted in Acts, Hebrews, James, the letters of Peter and John, Jude, and Revelation. It highlights the diverse approaches and contexts in which these writings engage with Scripture, making it a valuable resource for understanding the theological and literary connections within the New Testament.
This book offers an ideal introduction to the Gospels and explains why it is that scholars and lay people have such different understandings of the person of Jesus. The first half of the book looks at the main sources for the life of Jesus, principally the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, but also the so-called apocryphal Gospels. The second half of the book begins with an examination of the criteria employed by scholars to determine the earliest and most reliable forms of the tradition. The third edition interacts with developments in modern scholarship, particularly the advance of memory studies. With study questions at the end of each chapter, updated reading lists, and a new chapter bringing scholarship up to date the third edition of this classic text will provide a perfect companion for students coming to grips with academic study of Jesus and the Gospels.
