Christ and Caesar

Más información sobre el libro

Examining five of Paul's epistles, Seyoon Kim challenges the prevailing anti-imperial interpretation of his gospel, suggesting that Paul's writings do not explicitly oppose Roman imperial ideology. He then analyzes the Lukan texts to understand how they depict encounters with imperialism, noting Luke's lack of emphasis on political liberation in Christ's redemption. The book further compares Christologies in Luke, Revelation, Paul, and Hebrews, contemplating the potential for developing a political Christology relevant to contemporary issues.
