The Gospel of John has long been recognized as being distinct from the Synoptic Gospels. John among the Apocalypses explains John's distinctive narrative of Jesus's life by comparing it to Jewish apocalypses and highlighting the central place of revelation in the Gospel. While some scholars have noted a connection between the Gospel of John and Jewish apocalypses, Reynolds makes the first extensive comparison of the Gospel with the standard definition of the apocalypse genre. Engaging with modern genre theory, this comparison indicates surprising similarities of form, content, and function between John's Gospel and Jewish apocalypses.Even though the Gospel of John reflects similarities with the genre of apocalypse, John is not an apocalypse, but in genre theory terms, John may be described as a gospel in kind and an apocalypse in mode. John's narrative of Jesus's life has been qualified and shaped by the genre of apocalypse, such that it may be called an 'apocalyptic' gospel. In the final two chapters, Reynolds explores the implications of this conclusion for Johannine Studies and New Testament scholarship more broadly. John among the Apocalypses considers how viewing the Fourth Gospel as apocalyptic Gospel aids in the interpretation of John's appeal to Israel's Scriptures and Mosaic authority, and examines the Gospel's relationship with the book of Revelation and the history of reception concerning their writing. An examination of Byzantine iconographic traditions highlights how reception history may offer a possible explanation for reading John as apocalyptic Gospel.

This volume considers the New Testament in the light of anthropological study, in particular the current trend towards theological anthropology. The book begins with three essays that survey the context in which the New Testament was written, covering the Old Testament, early Jewish writings and the literature of the Greco –Roman world. Chapters then explore the anthropological ideas found in the texts of the New Testament and in the thought of it writers, notably that of Paul. The volume concludes with pieces from Brian S. Roser and Ephraim Radner who bring the whole exploration together by reflecting on the theological implications of the New Testament’s anthropological ideas.Taken together, the chapters in this volume address the question that humans have been asking since at least the earliest days of recorded history: what does it mean to be human? The presence of this question in modern theology, and its current prevalence in popular culture, makes this volume both a timely and relevant interdisciplinary addition to the scholarly conversation around the New Testament.

The Son of Man sayings are some of the most contested sayings in the Gospels. They preserve a phrase employed by Jesus to refer to himself, yet the meaning of the saying in its various contexts has been hotly debated for centuries. Some identify allusions to other literature in the bible, including the book of Daniel. Others see it as simply being a strange rendering in Greek of an Aramaic phrase that was relatively commonplace. The history of research on these sayings is here presented by Benjamin E. Reynolds in a volume of critical readings, which provides access to over 50 years of scholarly research. These essays and articles include the most often cited articles that address the various aspects of the Son of Man debate. In addition to these most well-known pieces Reynolds includes carefully selected additional essays that allow readers to trace different developments in the debate and to provide an entry into the waters of ‘the Son of Man Problem’ and the numerous solutions that have been offered. Each section features an introduction and a section of annotated further readings.

Benjamin E. Reynolds untersucht die Verwendung des Begriffs "Menschensohn" im Johannesevangelium. Die Wurzeln dieser apokalyptischen Figur liegen in der Wendung "wie eines Menschen Sohn" aus Daniel 7 und in der jüdischen apokalyptischen Literatur. Der Autor zeigt, dass die Bezeichnung "Menschensohn" weder dazu dient, auf Jesu Menschsein zu verweisen, noch gleichbedeutend mit der Bezeichnung "Sohn Gottes" ist. Die Bedeutung des Begriffs weist zwar viele Überschneidungen mit anderen Titeln auf, verweist aber gleichzeitig auf Aspekte in der Persönlichkeit Jesu, die von keinem anderen Titel zum Ausdruck gebracht werden. Vielmehr hilft er, ein genaueres christologisches Portrait des johanneischen Jesu zu zeichnen.

Die Beiträge dieses Bandes beschäftigen sich mit bestimmten Texten des Neuen Testaments und theologischen Lehren anhand der folgenden Fragen: Soll die systematische Theologie die biblische Theologie beherrschen oder umgekehrt? Sollten sie gleichgestellt werden? Wie würde das funktionieren? Ist die systematische Theologie notwendig oder hinderlich für die Exegese? Sollten systematisch-theologische Eigenheiten bei der exegetischen Untersuchung berücksichtigt werden? Diesen und andere Fragen gehen sowohl Neutestamentler als auch systematische Theologen nach, indem sie sich mit spezifischen biblischen Texte, theologischen Lehren oder historisch-theologischen Themen auseinandersetzen. Jeder der Beiträger wägt die Rolle der biblischen und der systematischen Theologie entweder in exegetischen Untersuchungen oder in der Formulierung theologischer Lehren ab. Der Band enthält ein Vorwort von Tremper Longman, III.
