| Description: |
In this book, which covers all of Jesus' parables, Gerhard Lohfink takes a closer look at the origins of each one, its shape, its realistic details, but most of all its original message and the situation into which it was once spoken.
Jesus' parables speak in bold images of the kingdom of God, making it present to us as they reveal something of the mystery of his own person.
"....The Forty Parables of Jesus presents the content of Jesus' unique sayings mindful of the traditions that preserved, preached, and interpreted those parables. But Lohfink also provides the larger context in which parables, as provocative short stories with a twist, were heard, read, and understood. Lohfink has deftly written a well-exegeted and researched book that is at the same time eminently readable...."
Laurie Brink, OP, PhD, Professor of New Testament Studies at Catholic Theological Union |
