Document Summary
Jesus was born (2 ce) and temple of jerusalem was still ritual center. First temple (solomon) was destroyed, herodian edifice was second temple. There was a lot of jewish diaspora. Jesus was a revolutionary: the way he put judaism into practice changed the religious system. Earliest sources of gospels q (quelle) (source) Jesus"s teachings arranged in mishnah (a compilation of rabbi"s teaching by his disciples) Instructs the disciples to travel without provisions: taken idea from israel"s travels without materials to show purity. One gospel cannot be explained on the basis of literal copying from another gospel. Prayer: an address for god + a petition for something. To jesus, the true meaning of all human activity was the relationship to god as father. He emphasized ethical demands of god"s kingdom and identified god"s fatherhood rather than the prophecy of israel"s kingdom** Jesus"s application of the commandment, not its formulation, is the systematic innovation.
