Kompendium der Gleichnisse Jesu

This comprehensive volume offers an essential resource for biblical studies, providing the first extensive interpretation of Jesus' parables since Jülicher and Knoch. It includes all known parable texts from the Gospels, apocryphal gospels, and Agrapha. The book clarifies methodological and hermeneutical questions, then systematically examines each parable through unified exegetical guidelines. This includes narrative, metaphorical, socio-historical, traditional, and reception-aesthetic dimensions, making it invaluable for preaching, teaching, and catechesis.
