The Trial and Crucifixion of Jesus : Texts and Commentary Paperback / softback

Part of the Wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen zum Neuen Testament series

Paperback / softback

Description

The purpose of this comprehensive sourcebook by David W.

Chapman and Eckhard J. Schnabel is to publish the extra-biblical primary texts that have been cited as relevant for understanding Jesus' trial and crucifixion.

The texts in the first part deal with Jesus' trial and interrogation before the Sanhedrin, and the texts in the second part concern Jesus' trial before Pilate.

The texts in part three represent crucifixion as a method of execution in antiquity.

For each document the authors provide the original text (Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, Latin, etc.), a translation, and commentary.

The commentary describes the literary context and the purpose of each document in context before details are clarified, along with observations on the contribution of these texts to understanding Jesus' trial and crucifixion.
