[PU: Philadelphia: Fortress Press], XI, 206 p. Hardcover with dust jacket. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar ohne Anstreichungen, Nachruf auf den Autor beiliegend (The New York Times Obituaries) / a good and clean copy without markings, obituary of the author enclosed (The New York Times Obituaries). - These seminal essays explore forms of the New Testament tradition on the basis of a view of language as perception, problem, and promise. The author firmly believes that language contains "glimpses of worlds aborning" even though contemporary minds, given to literal-mindedness, may see this view as simply mysterious. This view of language, however, when connected in a fundamental way with the tradition and canon of the New Testament, compels systematic reflection. The essays fall into three sections. The first, The Jesus Tradition, advances the notion that that tradition took shape in Greek and not, as in the prevailing view, in Aramaic, and builds on the insight that the parables are the key to understanding Jesus' message. In the parables, the author sees Jesus as announcing a fundamental reversal of the destinies of men and women in relation to their common expectations. Furthermore, the parables ignore chronological questions, trading rather in the notion that decisions made here, today, in ordinary, everyday contexts, are the decisions of eternity. The second section, Letters, argues for a strong oral orientation to the ministry of Paul for which he regarded the written letter as a weak substitute. The final section, Language, systematically explores mythical and "literal non-literal" language in relation to the tradition and canon of the New Testament. This foundational work, by one of the world's leading New Testament scholars, is certain to advance new modes of viewing the language and manner of the New Testament tradition. / Contents Preface Acknowledgments 1.
