Abstract
"The historicity of Jesus’ baptism by John is virtually certain. The historicity of the theophany (the Spirit’s descent and divine voice) is probable, but its timing as contemporaneous with the baptism is open to question. As a prophetic call-vision, the theophany quite possibly happened at a later time. Based on an exploration of John’s baptism and ministry within the context of Second-Temple Judaism, the significance of Jesus’ baptism is explored: it is a significant turning point in Jesus’ life; Jesus is identifying with Israel’s need to repent, and he is in agreement with, John’s vision for a reconstituted Israel; since Jesus is a disciple of John, the beginning of his ministry involves baptizing within John’s movement. It is also important to understand Jesus’ later ministry along a trajectory that begins with Jesus’ association with John. This later ministry shows both continuity with and development beyond Jesus’ early involvement with John"

    LOS POBRES Y EL REINO [THE POOR AND THE KINGDOM]

    Lima Vasconcellos, Pedro (DEI - RECU, 1998)
    "El presente artículo se aproxima a la carta de Santiago viendo en ella un ejercicio de recuperación y recreación de las palabras de Jesús. En eso reside una de las peculiaridades de este escrito dentro del Nuevo Testamento, pero que le coloca en el centro de una vertiente fundamental de los inicios del cristianismo, a saber, la tradición que vincula a Jesús por la conservación y transmisión de sus enseñanzas. El autor propone la verificación en el caso de la conexión entre los pobres y el Reino, tema central en la predicación de Jesús de Nazareth" "The present article approaches the letter of James by seeing in it an exercise in the recuperation and re-creation of Jesus’ words. In this resides one of the peculiarities of this book within the New Testament, but which places it at the heart of a fundamental factor in the beginnings of Christianity, namely, the tradition which is connected to Jesus through the conservation and transmission of his teachings. The author proposes to verify this in the case of the connection between the indigent and the Kingdom, which is central in the preaching of Jesus of Nazareth"

    Christology

    George, Samuel (SCEPTRE, 2014)
    The book deals with christologies of different times and contexts. Starting from Christological Debates during the Patristic Period, Samuel George discusses christologies of Irenaeus, Clement of Alexandria, Origen of Alexandria, Arius, Athanasius of Alexandria, Apollinarius of Laodicea and the Cappadocian Fathers. The Mediaeval and Reformation christologies chapter deals with Thomas Aquinas, Martin Luther and John Calvin. Following these, different Western christologies are presented, as that of Friedrich Daniel Ernst Schleiermacher, Karl Barth, Albert Schweitzer, Rudolf Karl Bultmann, Paul Johannes Tillich and Wolfhart Pannenberg. After this, christological reflections from India are introduced: Raja Ram Mohan Roy’s, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi’s, Brahmabandhav Upadhyaya’s, Vengal Chakkarai’s, Aiyarudai Jesudasan Appasamy’s, Pandipeddi Chenchiah’s, Paul David Devanandan’s, M. M. Thomas’, Sebastian Kappen’s, Kalagara Subba Rao’s christology, and christology from a Dalit perspective. The last chapter discusses emerging christologies from the margins: Latin American liberation context, christology from the Afro-American/Black context, Womanist/Feminist Theology, Minjung christology and Eco-theology and christology.
