David Flusser and Timothy Jordan Keiderling

First published in 1981—and now translated into English for the first time—Flusser’s unparalleled work argues that Jesus’ parables belong to a genre that exists solely in the Jewish rabbinic tradition and New Testament. Therefore, to analyze the theology behind Christ’s storytelling, we must first deal with the essence and literary form of surviving rabbinic examples. 336 pages
