Preaching the Sermon on the Mount: The World It Imagines

Meer over het boek

Exploring the Sermon on the Mount as a radical vision for an alternative society, this collection features contributions from biblical scholars, theologians, and historians. Eighteen writers examine its relevance to contemporary issues like empire, poverty, and conflict. Rather than presenting an unattainable ideal, they argue that the sermon offers a practical framework for living as part of God's Kingdom through grace. This two-part volume invites readers to rethink societal norms in light of Jesus' teachings.
