THE HISTORICAL JESUS, ESCHATOLOGY AND HOPE FOR THE EARTH?

  • Roger A Arendse University of the Western Cape
Keywords: Hope for the earth, Historical Jesus, Eschatology

Abstract

In an illuminating essay, Nurnberger has maintained that a Christian vision of hope for the earth may be quite adequately grounded in a variety of biblical perspectives. But Nurnberger's study gives rise to a more spesific and critical question not sufficiently wrestled with in his paper, namely: 'Is there really support for an eschatological hope for the earth within the spesific mission and message of the historical figure of Jesus of Nazareth?'
