Short description:
John S. Kloppenborg untersucht, wie das Gleichnis von den Weingärtnern von Christen üblicherweise verstanden bzw. mißverstanden wurde. Er rekonstruiert die ökonomische Situation Palästinas in der hellenistisch-römischen Zeit, ordnet das Gleichnis in den Kontext des antiken Weinbaus ein und beschreibt das soziale und rechtliche Umfeld, in dem das Gleichnis erstmals erzählt wurde. John S. Kloppenborg provides a model for the interpretation of the parables of Jesus, employing ideological analysis, and traditional source and redaction criticism. His new and comprehensive discussion of viticulture in the late Hellenistic and early Roman periods in Egypt, Italy, and Jewish Palestine reconstructs the economic, social, and legal world in which the parables were first told.
MoreLong description:
John S. Kloppenborg untersucht, wie das Gleichnis von den Weingärtnern (Markus 12,1-12; Thomasevangelium 65) von Christen üblicherweise verstanden bzw. mißverstanden wurde und ordnet die Parabel in den Kontext der antiken Weinbaus ein. Zunächst beschäftigt sich der Autor kritisch mit der Interpretationsgeschichte des Textes und fragt nach den ideologischen Interessen, die mit dem Gleichnis verbunden waren. Anschließend rekonstruiert der Autor das soziale Umfeld, in denen die Parabel erstmals erzählt wurde. Er zeigt, daß das Gleichnis der Weingärtner vor allem von den sozial und politisch Mächtigen gedeutet wurde. Der Autor weist nach, daß alle Merkmale des Gleichnisses eine völlig realistische Geschichte ergeben. Nur die Bearbeitung durch Markus hebt sie über die realistische Sprachweise hinaus, die anderen Gleichnissen von Jesus eigen ist. John S. Kloppenborg gives a detailed analysis of one of the most difficult of Jesus' parables, the parable of the Tenants (Mark 12:1-12; Gospel of Thomas 65). He examines the ways in which Christians have typically read and mis-read the parable, and places the parable firmly in the context of the practices of ancient viticulture. The author models a new approach to the interpretation of the parables of Jesus. First, he critically engages the history of interpretation of the text, inquiring into the ideological interests that the parable has engaged during the history of its use in Christian churches and in political discourse. Second, he reconstructs the social world in which the parable was first told, in particular the economic, social, and legal aspects of ancient viticulture. He demonstrates that the parable of the Tenants has mostly been interpreted from the standpoint of those who wield social and political power, a strange irony considering the social status of the Jesus of history and the literary uses of the parable. All of the features common to the parable as it is told by Mark and the Gospel of Thomas make it a perfectly realistic story. It is only Mark's editing of the story that takes it beyond the realistic idiom characteristic of Jesus' other parables. The book concludes with a dossier of 58 papyrus documents relating to various aspects of viticulture and agrarian conflict.
It was awarded the 2007 Francis W. Beare Book Award by the Canadian Society of Biblical Studies.
