Synopsis
Excerpt from Hellenism and Christianity The present volume is intended to be a sequel to the author's Jewish Sources of the Sermon on the Mount, in which the teaching of Jesus was compared with the teaching of the Synagogue. An attempt is made in the present book to inquire into the relation between the New Testament Christology and the theology underlying the creeds and cults of the Hellenistic world in the first century, C.E. The latest results in the study of comparative religious history enable us to account for the rise of Christianity, without being obliged to rely exclusively upon the Gospels and the other books of the New Testament. The studies of Frazer, Pfleiderer, Deissmann, Cumont, Gunkel, Jeremias and Bruckner have made it possible for the following pages to be written. The aim of the writer is to consider more particularly some aspects of the Messianic doctrine peculiar to the New Testament, and in the second place to compare this doctrine with Judaism and the other contemporary religions.

Hellenism and Christianity (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the origins of the New Testament Christology and the underlying theology of the Hellenistic world in the first century C.E. The author compares the two to demonstrate that the distinctive Messiah titles found in the New Testament, such as the Son of Man or Son of God, derive from Hellenism rather than Judaism. The examination extends to the idea of a Messiah as a divine being, and a pre-existent heavenly savior. This in-depth examination of the origins of Christian doctrine and its relationship to contemporary religious thought offers a unique perspective on the development of Christianity within a broader historical and religious framework.
