Messianic Exegesis Christological interpretation of the Old Testament in early Christianity
Juel, Donald (1942-2003)
Messianic Exegesis Christological interpretation of the Old Testament in early Christianity Donald Juel - Philadelphia, U.S.A Fortress 1988 - 193tr. Hardcopy 22cm
Professor Juel defends a simple thesis: The beginnings of Christian reflection can be traced to interpretation of Israel's scriptures, and the major focus of that scriptural interpretation was Jesus, the crucified and risen Messiah. He therefore proceeds to demonstrate how certain Old Testament texts came to be applied to Jesus as Christ. He argues that the interpretative application of such texts to Jesus was part of the interior logic of Christianity.
