Das Johannesevangelium in antik-christlicher Rezeption, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The Gospel of John had a particularly broad reception in ancient Christianity. This volume offers exemplary individual studies on key authors, overarching motifs, and exemplary texts. After the introductory presentation of the fields, genres, and media of the reception of John, the contributions are devoted to early Christian authors such as Clement, Tertullian, and Origen as well as central discourses of Christology and pneumatology. Specific studies examine the reception of particular texts such as the Jacob's Ladder, the Samaria pericope or the spear thrust scene, the structure of textual tradition and local traditions around "Bethabara" and the reception of ancient textual traditions up to the time of the Reformation. The studies show the multifaceted interconnectedness of Johannine texts and themes and the significance of this gospel for ancient Christianity.
