With Christ
While spending almost a year in retreat at the Abbey of Tamie, Jean-Franois Baudoz, a biblical scholar, was inspired to write this spiritual journey. Far from presenting a collection of "pious pieces of advice," this journey proposes to restore our inner unity, by focusing on the figure of Christ, the very core of our growth in faith and yet often remote from our concerns. With Christ draws from three sources: daily life with its joys, its rifts, and its times of transition; the Rule of Saint Benedict, centered on the hearing and welcoming of God's Word; and finally the Gospel and the words of Jesus. Could it be that the man from Nazareth, followed step by step, from the desert to Jerusalem, from the parables to the silence of the cross, is the one to open for us an authentic inner truth?

TO WALK IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF CHRIST
Some say that the Gospels are incompatible, heterogeneous, or even contradictory. We will find out how four writers, four Gospel writers have contributed in their own way to our understanding of the complexity of the agony of Christ. This book is a journey of discovery of faith through the versions of four great authors of the Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.

Spirituality in John's Gospel
The Fourth Gospel has been known as the “spiritual gospel” since the second century, but only recently have biblical scholars attempted to express the unique spirituality found in that sacred text. Surprisingly, no consensus has emerged even after a century of research. Thus, while John’s Gospel is widely admired as a vibrant source of Christian piety, the distinct features of its spirituality remain unclear. Fr. Fiore addresses this problem from the fresh perspective of spiritual theology. Capitalizing on a century of Johannine biblical scholarship, he uses the interdisciplinary methods of spiritual theology to bring new data to the study of the Gospel and solutions to many lingering ...
The Suffering Son of David in Matthew's Passion Narrative
Drawing on David texts, Matthew makes the narrative case for an unexpected messiah--one who does not kill but is instead killed by the Romans.
Betsaida/Bethsaida – Julias (et-Tell)
Die Publikation macht es möglich, insbesondere für die hellenistisch-frührömische Zeit die ersten ca. 25 Jahre der am Nordende des Sees Gennesaret seit 1987 durchgeführten Ausgrabung von et-Tell nachzuvollziehen, und sie lässt für diesen Zeitraum den letzten Stand der auch für die neutestamentliche Forschung wichtigen Grabung erkennen. Die Grabung wird von dem israelischen Archäologen Prof. Dr. Rami Arav geleitet; der Verfasser ist Professor für Neues Testament und Kodirektor des Bethsaida Excavations Project. Die Grabung hat gezeigt, dass et-Tell gleichzusetzen ist mit Betsaida/Julias, das z. B. im Neuen Testament (siebenmal), bei dem jüdischen Historiker Josephus und in der rabb...
A Marginal Jew: Rethinking the Historical Jesus, Volume IV
John Meier's previous volumes in the acclaimed series A Marginal Jew are founded upon the notion that while solid historical information about Jesus is quite limited, people of different faiths can nevertheless arrive at a consensus on fundamental historical facts of his life. In this eagerly anticipated fourth volume in the series, Meier approaches a fresh topic-the teachings of the historical Jesus concerning Mosaic Law and morality-with the same rigor, thoroughness, accuracy, and insightfulness on display in his earlier works.
The Missions of James, Peter, and Paul
The Missions of James, Peter, and Paul investigates the nature, diversity, and relationship of three early and important expressions of Judaic Christianity. It is the conviction of the contributors that the Judaic origins of the Christian movement have not been sufficiently understood in both ecclesiastical and academic circles. Comparison with contemporary Judaism is foundational and leads to the question that guides discussion: How did James relate to such prominent figures as Peter and Paul? Given James' own eminence, those relationships must have been hallmarks of his own stance and status, and they open the prospect that we might delineate James' theological perspective more precisely than otherwise possible by means of this contrast with Peter and Paul. That is the reason for the division of the present volume into two parts. The Missions of James, Peter, and Paul is presented in two parts: James and Peter, and James Paul. Several studies investigate the literary and archaeological evidence that clarifies the world in which James, Peter, and Paul lived, while other studies probe exegetical and theological aspects of the discussion.
