Reihe: Wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen zum Neuen Testament 2. Reihe

Die Autoren dieses Bandes fordern und erproben eine neue Perspektive auf die Gleichnisse Jesu, indem sie diese als Mittel zur Überzeugung und nicht nur als informative Geschichten betrachten. Sie untersuchen, wie diese Gleichnisse das Publikum emotional und intellektuell ansprachen und in ihrem ursprünglichen jüdischen und griechischen kulturellen Kontext nicht primär (be-)lehren, sondern überzeugen wollten.
