Jesus

Jesus er en superstar. Alle kender ham, mange forguder ham, og en del historikere tror, han havde sin gang på jorden. Om end han nok ikke gik på vandet. Til gengæld måtte han sluge kamelen og gå fra Herodes til Pilatus blot for at ende på korset. Men hvorfor skulle en jødisk håndværker fra Udkantspalæstina overhovedet derop? Var Jesus militant oprørsleder, gudsbenådet storyteller eller slet og ret Guds søn? Halleluja for Kasper Bro Larsen, teologisk snushane på Aarhus Universitet, der har sat sig for at optrevle verdenshistoriens største kriminalgåde.

I en stald i Betlehem bliver et lille barn født. Hans far og mor ved godt, at han nok ikke bliver tømrer som sin far. Men ved de mon, hvor anderledes han er? Her er historien om Jesus’ liv fra barn til voksen. Læs selv om Jesus’ fødsel og opvækst og om hvad han gjorde, og hvorfor han var så særlig. Teksten er sat med korte linjer, stor skrift og deleprikker og illustreret med varme og humor af Charlotte Pardi. Den er lige til at læse selv for alle børn mellem 7 og 11, der gerne selv vil læse Bibelens bedste historier. Johannes Møllehave var hele Danmarks præst og hans børnebibel er elsket af generationer. Nu kan du selv læse de enkelte historier i små letlæsningsudgaver. Denne udgave er læsebearbejdet og har Lix 22.

Hvem er Jesus egentlig? Det lyder som et retorisk spørgsmål, men det er faktisk ikke så enkelt at svare på. For er han Gud i menneskeklæder eller blot en jødisk håndværker med lidt ekstra karisma? JESUS giver en guidet tur gennem tidernes skiftende forståelser af Jesus – fra jødisk messias og kristen frelser til kættersk helt og muslimsk profet. BIBELSELSKABETS HÅNDBIBLIOTEK er en serie af små fagbøger, der udforsker væsentlige temaer og begreber i Bibelen. Forfatterne er eksperter på deres områder, og bøgerne er skrevet i et sprog, som man kan forstå.

Do you ever feel like Jesus couldn't possibly know what you are going through? He's the God of the universe after all! Does he really know your daily struggles? The good news is: he does. For thirty-three years Jesus felt everything you have ever felt: weakness, weariness, sadness, rejection. His feet got tired and his head ached. He was tempted and his strength was tested.

Find out what matters to Jesus. Want to know what in the world God is doing? Ponder the words and life of Jesus. For more than three decades, pastor and bestselling author Max Lucado has shown us Jesus. In this capstone book, he takes us further on the journey to know the life and character of the Savior. This book describes both the person Jesus was on earth and how to live in a personal relationship with him. It is divided into six sections: Immanuel Friend Teacher Miracle Worker Lamb of God Returning King This compilation from Max Lucado gives readers the chance to become more familiar with the man at the center of the greatest story ever told. Max explores Jesus' life, death, and resurrection, including how Jesus interacted with his friends and his enemies, what he did with time alone, and how he acted at a party. Max writes, “Don't settle for a cursory glance or a superficial understanding. Look long into the heart of Christ and you'll see it. Grace and life. Forgiveness of sin. The defeat of death. This is the hope he gives.” Jesus wants you to know him. As you read these pages, may the hero of all history talk to you personally, and may you find in him the answer to your deepest needs.

This bold, fresh look at the historical Jesus and the Jewish roots of Christianity challenges both Jews and Christians to re-examine their understanding of Jesus' commitment to his Jewish faith. Instead of emphasizing the differences between the two religions, this groundbreaking text explains how the concepts of vicarious atonement, mediation, incarnation, and Trinity are actually rooted in classical Judaism. Using the cutting edge of scholarly research, Rabbi Zaslow dispels the myths of disparity between Christianity and Judaism without diluting the unique features of each faith. Jesus: First Century Rabbi is a breath of fresh air for Christians and Jews who want to strengthen and deepen their own faith traditions.

In this volume: Mything in Action, vol. II (chapters 13 - 18) discusses the changing Jesus from even before the earliest Christians, to Paul, to the Book of Hebrews, to the Gospels and beyond: the construction (and deconstruction) of the Gospels; how Jesus is presented in the rest of the New Testament; and examines the historical sources for Jesus outside of the Bible.

Very little is known or recorded about Jesus in his formative years. In the Gospel stories, we witness Jesus' birth and then see him as a young boy of 12 questioning the Rabbis in the Temple in Jerusalem. Following this, he does not reappear until age 30, when he emerges as the potent and stirring rebel baptized by John at the River Jordan. From his unceremonious birth in Bethlehem to his ultimate betrayal in Jerusalem, "Jesus" is a riveting and soul-stirring account of the most remarkable story of all time.
