Ruben Zimmermann va más allá en su libro Las enigmáticas parábolas de Jesús y explora la dinámica del discurso parabólico en toda su rica complejidad. Usando la historia de la investigación y la distinción de los enfoques históricos de los literarios y los orientados al lector; a continuación, se expone una hermenéutica posmoderna que analiza los elementos narrativos y el contexto, traza el trasfondo sociohistórico.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEn esta obra el autor se centra en las parábolas de las primeras fuentes cristianas (Marcos, Mateo, Lucas, Juan y el Evangelio de Tomás) para explorar cómo funcionan las parábolas en cada contexto literario. Por encima de todo reina el principio de que el significado o \"mensaje\" teológico de una parábola no puede extraerse de la forma parabólica; así, las parábolas siguen invitando a la participación de oyentes y lectores hasta nuestros días.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEl estudio de las parábolas de Jesús representa también un reto con respecto a su significado, pues existe una tendencia creciente entre los eruditos de las parábolas para reconocer la imposibilidad de reducir el significado de estos textos a una única interpretación. La estructura de su libro se divide en dos partes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEn la primera se acerca al estudio de las parábolas desde tres diferentes enfoques, que aplica en diferentes parábolas. En la segunda se acerca al estudio proponiendo una metodología integral para el estudio de las parábolas, que aplica nuevamente de forma práctica en diferentes parábolas.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eÍndices que se incluyen:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ebibliografía amplia del libro y de cada capítulo,\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eÍndice muy útil de temas\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eíndice de otros de texto antiguos\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Enigmatic Parables of Jesus\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eModern parable scholars have long been concerned with asking what Jesus said and what he intended by his parables. Ruben Zimmermann goes further in his book The Enigmatic Parables of Jesus and explores the dynamics of parabolic discourse in all its rich complexity. The introductory chapters address the history of the research and distinguish historical from literary and reader-oriented approaches, followed by a postmodern hermeneutic that analyzes narrative elements and context, traces the sociohistorical background.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSubsequent chapters focus on a parable from early Christian sources (Mark, Matthew, Luke, John, and the Gospel of Thomas) to explore how parables function in each literary context. Above all, the principle reigns that the theological meaning or \"message\" of a parable cannot be extracted from the parabolic form; thus, parables continue to invite the participation of hearers and readers to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe study of Jesus' parables also represents a challenge with respect to their meaning, for there is a growing tendency among parable scholars to recognize the impossibility of reducing the meaning of these texts to a single interpretation. The structure of his book is divided into two parts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn the first he approaches the study of the parables from three different approaches, which he applies to different parables. In the second, he approaches the study by proposing an integral methodology for the study of parables, which he applies again in a practical way in different parables.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndexes included:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eextensive bibliography of the book and of each chapter,\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eextremely useful index of topics\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eindex of other ancient texts\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51096002658577,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51096005345553,"sku":"NIN9788418204951","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52337171562769,"sku":"NLS9788418204951","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/8418204958.jpg?v=1750871521"},{"product_id":"creation-concepts-and-creation-care-book-ruben-zimmermann-9783161634260","title":"Creation Concepts and Creation Care","description":"Die Beitragenden des vorliegenden Bandes beleuchten Schöpfungskonzepte in der Antike sowie Aspekte von Schöpfungsverantwortung in frühen jüdischen und christlichen Texten.

Against a narrow understanding of ethics, the term application is not used to analyse the texts of the Bible as step-by-step manuals for moral conduct. Rather, the contributors engage with biblical texts within the framework of a complex hermeneutical process of application of the relevance of these texts in contemporary ethical discourse.

Many of his studies explicitly embrace an interdisciplinary methodology and apply, in particular, insights gained from contemporary work on images and metaphor, narratology, and ethical theory. This volume, edited by Dieter T. Roth, presents twenty-five essays - several of which appear here in print or in English for the first time - under five headings: Imagery, Parables, Characters, Christology, and Ethics. These essays address a broad spectrum of questions and issues in the Fourth Gospel, and they are brought together in the present format in the hopes of contributing to and further stimulating truly groundbreaking work in the treasured, ancient text of the Gospel of John.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52590855749905,"sku":"NLS9783161548628","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783161548628.jpg?v=1791961666"},{"product_id":"ethik-der-zeit-zeiten-der-ethik-book-ruben-zimmermann-9783161607219","title":"Ethik der Zeit - Zeiten der Ethik","description":"Der vorliegende Band präsentiert Artikel aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven und Disziplinen, die aus Vorträgen auf fünf Mainz Moral Meetings zum Thema \"Zeit und Ethik\" erwachsen sind.

Good deeds are mentioned several times, virtue and vice catalogues describe good and bad ways of living, and a household code addresses the different groups in the community. The moral of the letter, however, has been deemed highly problematic because of issues pertaining to gender and the social position of women and slaves, the hierarchy of the leadership in the congregation, and the believer's attitude with respect to society and government. As a result, the letter's ethics have either been heavily criticized, ignored or neglected in scholarship. The present volume explores the ethics in Titus with new methodologies and from different perspectives, including a variety of hermeneutical frames of reading from scholars in different traditions and denominations.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52669394387217,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52669395271953,"sku":"NLS9783161611599","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783161611599.jpg?v=1791999405"},{"product_id":"christologie-der-bilder-im-johannesevangelium-book-ruben-zimmermann-9783161483882","title":"Christologie der Bilder im Johannesevangelium","description":"English summary: The many images of Jesus Christ contained in the Gospel of John, such as for example the Good Shepherd, the Lamb of God or the Bread of Life have been enormously influential throughout history. In this literary-hermeneutic study, Ruben Zimmermann shows that these images have an aesthetic influence as well as some theological value in the entire concept of the Gospel, since it is in and through pictorial language that Christological reflection takes place. This is not limited to the use of I am; it can also be seen in a variety of forms such as contextual metaphors, symbolic narratives, remetaphorized titles or cognitive pictorial concepts which are analyzed inductively with the help of various theories of imagery. German description: Das Johannesevangelium spricht in vielen Bildern von Jesus Christus, die eine immense Wirkungsgeschichte nach sich gezogen haben, so zum Beispiel der gute Hirte, das Lamm Gottes oder das Brot des Lebens. Ruben Zimmermann zeigt in seiner literarisch-hermeneutischen Untersuchung, dass diese Bilder nicht nur einen (wirkungs-)asthetischen, sondern auch einen theologischen Wert in der Gesamtkonzeption des Evangeliums haben: Die christologische Reflexion vollzieht sich hier gerade in und durch Bildersprache. Diese beschrankt sich nicht nur auf die Ich-bin-Worte, sondern sie zeigt sich in vielfaltigen Formen wie z.B. in Kontextmetaphern, symbolischen Erzahlungen, remetaphorisierten Titeln (z.B. Sohn als Familienmetapher) oder kognitiven Bildkonzepten (z.B. die Raumdimension), die induktiv mit Hilfe unterschiedlicher Bildertheorien analysiert werden.Der Autor wahlt zwei Schwerpunkte: Einerseits wird die Vielfalt der Christusbilder des gesamten Evangeliums anhand von beispielhaften Textanalysen im Uberblick wahrgenommen, andererseits wird die Bilderchristologie im zentralen Kapitel Joh 10 detailliert analysiert. Es zeigt sich, dass das Christusmosaik des vierten Evangeliums literarisch ebenso kunstvoll gestaltet wie theologisch bedeutsam ist. Die bildersprachliche Vielfalt der christologischen Darstellungsformen erweist sich als ein theologisches Programm, das einerseits der Grosse und Weite des johanneischen Christuszeugnisses Ausdruck verleiht und das andererseits den Leser in einen christologischen Verstehensprozess hineinziehen will. So wird in der vorliegenden Studie eine wirkungsasthetische Christologie des Johannesevangeliums entfaltet, die als urchristlicher Beitrag zu einer poetologischen Theologie betrachtet werden kann.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52682261987601,"sku":"NLS9783161483882","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783161483882.jpg?v=1762317686"},{"product_id":"die-kunst-der-auslegung-book-ruben-zimmermann-9783825265588","title":"Die Kunst Der Auslegung","description":"English summary: This handbook brings together both classic and cutting-edge methods for interpreting the New Testament.
