La famille n'est jamais ce que l'on pensait, quand Dieu est de la partie.
Concernant la famille, la Bible ne donne ni mode d'emploi ni cahier des charges. Elle affirme que Dieu est présent à ce groupe humain appelé famille et que cela change tout. Tous les termes familiaux que l'on croit connaître sont ainsi remis en chantier. Si Dieu est Père, y a-t-il encore des pères humains ? Ne sont-ce pas les femmes qui dirigent vers le Père ? Sœur...

Few works have gazed on the Marcan topic with as much a detail as this one. The tradition on the origin and authorship of the second Gospel looms up from the shadows in southern central Anatolia, closing the first third of the first century AD, pointing out the relation of Mark, one of the most consistent secondary figures of the New Testament, and Peter the apostle. In no more than fifty years, tradition will stress the link of Mark's work with the...

The Gospel of John was long assumed to be the work of an eyewitness, usually identified as John, son of Zebedee. More recently, many have judged it the unhistorical product of a "Johannine community." Reconsideration by Richard Bauckham has suggested that the author was a Jerusalem disciple who housed the "Last Supper." This book explores the possibility that he was present at most of the events he described. It contends that John's Gospel reveals...

This interdisciplinary study tackles the controversy of translating nephesh ( נפֶֶשׁ ) by using an intergenerational translation team to deepen our understanding of this term and providing a more valuable translation in Chinese, especially for use in specialist Children's Bibles. Traditionally nephesh is often translated in the Bible as 'soul', but despite the limitations of this popular rendering, it has led Christians in Chinese contexts to...

Description
The author claims that the gospel of Mark is a speech or sermon. To prove this he shows how Mark used many of the elements of Aristotle's rhetoric. Literary critics noticed these rhetorical features in Mark, but remained with a literary critical model of that gospel instead of a rhetorical view that the evidence called for. They continued to translate the first word of Mark, arche, as "beginning" to provide Mark's story of Jesus with a chronological...

À quoi Dieu s'engage-t-il en se révélant comme Dieu de tendresse, et à quoi nous engage-t-il?
Le dévoilement du nom divin a avancé conjointement avec l'histoire sainte. Jésus, « Dieu sauve », est venu dans le monde pour nous aider à nous approcher du visage de Dieu, nous rendre son nom plus intime. Dieu est amour. Depuis le début de son pontificat, le pape François insiste curieusement sur la « tendresse » de Dieu, qui est une des harmoniques...
