Rabbinic Parables and Jesus the Parable Teller, The
Outline : First published in German as Die rabbinschen Gleichnisse und der Gleichniserzähler Jesus in 1981―and now translated into English for the first time―this seminal work by Professor David Flusser remains an important and unparalleled contribution on Jesus as a storyteller in the Jewish rabbinic tradition. Using a literary approach to study extant rabbinic parables, Flusser argues that Jesus’ parables belong to a genre that exists only in rabbinic literature and the New Testament, and in order to analyze the theology behind Jesus’ parables, we need to understand them as a first-century literary art form.
