The Gospel of Matthew and the Roman Power (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The Gospel of Matthew emerges from a turbulent intersection of faith, politics, and imperial dominance. Written in the late first century, most scholars place its composition between 70 and 90 CE, a period marked by the aftershocks of the Jewish-Roman War (6673 CE). This devastating conflict, culminating in the destruction of the Jerusalem Temple in 70 CE, left an indelible mark on Jewish identity and religious practice. For the Jewish communityand for the early Christians who were inextricably linked to that communitythis was not merely a military defeat but a theological crisis. In this historical crucible, the Gospel of Matthew takes shape, presenting Jesus of Nazareth as the true fulfillment of Jewish hopes and the embodiment of divine authority in stark contrast to the might of Rome.
