From Proverbs to Parables

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on the artistic side of Jesus, the book explores how he was influenced by the Book of Proverbs, suggesting that many of his parables stem from specific verses within it. It argues that Jesus expanded on themes of wisdom, challenging the traditional notion that wisdom leads to reward and folly to punishment. By presenting Jesus as a creative artist, the text offers a fresh perspective on biblical wisdom, emphasizing his innovative approach to conveying profound truths through storytelling. Part I illustrates these connections in detail.
