Description
RARE German translation of "From Jesus to Paul" by the eminent Jewish historian and professor of Hebrew Literature Joseph Klausner (1874-1958), a sequel to an influential book about Jesus of Nazareth, which gained him fame, where he describes how Jesus is best understood as a Jew and Israelite who was trying to reform the religion, and died as a devout Jew. In this book the author gives a comprehensive introduction to the period immediately preceding the beginnings of Christianity in the form of a small group of Jesus` disciples to the ministry of Paul to the Gentiles. As well as discussing the historical and cultural background of the Second Temple period before its destruction, the author discusses Paul`s theology and epistles in its relation to contemporary Judaism and other religious movements prevalent in the eastern part of the Roman Empire. 250x160mm. 575 pages. Red cloth Hardcover with gilt spine. Front cover stained. Cover corners and spine edges bumped. Spine yellowing. Spine gilt partly faded. Binding somewhat loose and visible between front endpaper and whitepage, and two last pages (574-575). Pre-title page, pages 210-211 and 575 yellowing. Small age-stain on pages 485-492 upper edge. Small age-stain on page 489. Text block edges dirty. Pages slightly yellowing and slightly wavy. [SUMMARY]: This extremely rare German edition of a fascinating book on the life and ministry of Paul and the beginnings of Christianity, written from a modern Jewish perspective, is otherwise in good condition.
