Résumé : |
“When the Jews return to the land of their fathers, they will return along a bridge of papyrus," says an ancient proverb. In this way they will return home to their roots. As Christians, we too need to return to the birthplace of our faith. This book on Paul is intended as a continuation of two books originally written in Hebrew, entitled "The Messiah in the Old Testament in the Light of Rabbinical Writings" and "The Messiah in the New Testament in the Light of Rabbinical Writings", by Risto Santala. In Israel they have already reached six printings, and from them has grown a correspondence of more than ten thousand addresses and hundreds of letters from serious seekers.
“Paul - the Man and the Teacher”, describes the course of the apostle's life, the influences he received in his childhood, his education at the feet of Gamaliel and his inner crisis, as the opponent of Christianity became the Apostle to the Gentiles. From hundreds of little scraps of information there emerges a close-up picture of Paul's psychology and the foundations of his thinking. The Christian reader can agree with the final conclusion reached by Rabbi Gottlieb Klein: "Thus Paul drew conclusions from his faith. He broke down the fence erected between Israel and the Gentiles. God-fearing Gentiles no longer belong to a secondary system as semi-proselytes and, as it were, an appendage of Judaism. In Christ they are all equal - the bond to Israel must not be severed. No, it should be tied more strongly!" |
