Description
Although a central Christian text, the Sermon on the Mount remains full of mystery. In this book, an ecumenical group of scholars guides us from exegesis to theology to application to proclamation. Marianne Meye Thompson grounds the Sermon in the narrative of Matthew's Gospel. Piotr Mäysz provides theological amazement at the Sermon being at once law and gospel. David Cloutier works with the Sermon to understand and critique our culture of victimhood. Brent Waters explores its economic ""realism."" Sarah Hinlicky Wilson concludes with a poetic paraphrase and reflections on how to preach on the Sermon as a whole.
As a special supplement, and continuing the concern of Pro Ecclesia for doing theology ecumenically, Michael Root examines the changes in the ecumenical movement over the past generation. This volume as a whole is offered pro ecclesia, for the building up of the church.
