About this Item

Neuware - 'The New Testament Doctrine of the Christ' presents a comprehensive examination of the development and articulation of Christological thought within the earliest Christian scriptures. Delivered as the prestigious Bampton Lectures for 1926 at the University of Oxford, A. E. J. Rawlinson's work delves into the theological foundations of how the figure of Jesus Christ was understood by the writers of the New Testament. The book explores the transition from Jewish messianic expectations to the sophisticated theological frameworks found in the Pauline epistles and the Johannine literature.Rawlinson carefully analyzes the historical and cultural context of the first century, providing scholarly insight into the titles and roles attributed to Jesus, such as the Son of Man, the Lord, and the Word. This study serves as a critical resource for understanding the origins of Christian dogma and the evolution of the Church's early confessions of faith. By synthesizing historical criticism with profound theological reflection, 'The New Testament Doctrine of the Christ' remains an essential text for students of biblical studies, historical theology, and the history of early Christianity. It offers a rigorous defense of the intellectual integrity of New Testament Christology while honoring the spiritual significance of the biblical text.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
