Combining a post-New Quest perspective on Jesus with an eschatological reading of Paul, the author states that Jesus' temple criticism aims at restoration eschatology. Jesus starts a priestly community that expects God's jubilee to begin with Jesus' work, and proceed with the preaching of the new gospel. The reception of this message in the post-Easter church results in resurrection Christology that proclaims Jesus' Davidic kingship on God's throne of glory. Both Paul and Jewish Christian teachers later present Christ's community as a new temple where believers serve the Lord as priests of the new covenant. Furthermore, restoration eschatology provides a new basis for understanding Paul's contrast with the words of the law, and his teaching of justification.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mohr Siebeck","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47889782636695,"sku":"9783161562211","price":8083.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783161562211.webp?v=1781177735","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/a-narrative-theology-of-the-new-testament-exploring-the-metanarrative-of-exile-and-restoration-9783161562211","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
