Description
The Sermon on the Mount: Inspiring the Moral Imagination (Companions to the New Testament) Dale Allison explores the significance of Jesus' teachings in Matthew's Gospel, arguing that they can only be fully understood within their broader literary context. The Sermon is not a standalone set of rules, but rather a moral vision intended to inspire all who follow Jesus. Allison examines the relationship between the Sermon and other parts of the Gospel, including Jesus' words and deeds elsewhere in the text, as well as the community of believers that constitutes its intended audience. By considering these factors, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the Sermon's meaning and significance. This book offers a fresh perspective on one of the most important passages in Christian scripture, making it an essential resource for scholars and students of the New Testament.
