Francis Moloney – författare

The voice of Francis J. Moloney, SDB, has been heard in New Testament studies for many decades. Internationally famous for his work on the Gospel of John, this volume gathers studies that demonstrate the breadth and richness of his interests, beyond that well-established expertise. The first part of the book is dedicated to Gospel studies, with the majority of essays focussing upon the Gospel of Mark. They reflect his long interest and his major commentary on that Gospel (2001, 2012). Studies on Matthew, Luke and John complete these reflections.One of Professor Moloney's abiding concerns, however, is the role of biblical interpretation in the Christian Church. The second part of the books reflects upon what he calls "the restless relationship" that exists between the Magisterium and the critical interpretation of Scripture. That relationship is then tested by a series of studies that raise such questions as Vatican II, the Encyclical in the environment (Laudato Si'), divorce and remarriage, and the possibility of a Gospel according to Judas. The book closes with two optimistic essays on Christian hope in a secular world, and the role of the Word of God in today's challenging world.The voice of Francis J.
