Jesus-Jeshua

By Gustaf Dalman

"Jesus-Jeshua" is an authoritative study exploring the linguistic and cultural background of Jesus, focusing specifically on the Aramaic and Hebrew environment of first-century Palestine. This work delves into the nuances of the Semitic languages to provide a deeper understanding of the sayings and teachings found in the Gospels. By examining the linguistic roots of key biblical terms and the socio-historical context of the era, the book bridges the gap between the Greek text of the New Testament and the Palestinian reality of its subjects.

Gustaf Dalman's expertise in Oriental studies and his extensive fieldwork in the Holy Land allow him to reconstruct the atmosphere of the period with remarkable precision. The work covers essential topics such as the language spoken by Jesus, the religious customs of the time, and the geographical settings of his ministry. Scholars and students of theology will find this an indispensable resource for Christology and New Testament interpretation. "Jesus-Jeshua" remains a foundational text for anyone seeking to understand the historical Jesus through the lens of his own language and heritage, offering insights that remain relevant to contemporary biblical scholarship.
