Kyrios in the Gospel of Mark / Daniel Johansson in Journal for the Study of the New Testament, Volume 33/1 (2010)

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal for the Study of the New Testament > Volume 33/1 (2010) . - pp. 101-124. Titre : Kyrios in the Gospel of Mark Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Daniel Johansson, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : pp. 101-124. Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Against the common view that the title κύριoς plays a relatively insignificant role in the Gospel of Mark, this article argues that Mark uses κύριoς to set out important aspects of Jesus’ identity. The first instance of κύριoς, which refers to both God and Jesus (Mk 1.3), is seen as the key to Mark’s κύριoς Christology. The difficulty of determining whether κύριoς refers to God or Jesus in many of the following passages should be understood in light of this. Mark used κύριoς ambiguously to link both God and Jesus to the title. While the evangelist maintains that there is only one κύριoς, he also claims that Jesus shares the identity of being κύριoς with the God of Israel.

‘Who Can Forgive Sins but God Alone?’ Human and Angelic Agents, and Divine Forgiveness in Early Judaism / Daniel Johansson in Journal for the Study of the New Testament, Volume 33/4 (june 2011)

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal for the Study of the New Testament > Volume 33/4 (june 2011) . - pp. 351-374. Titre : ‘Who Can Forgive Sins but God Alone?’ Human and Angelic Agents, and Divine Forgiveness in Early Judaism Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Daniel Johansson, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp. 351-374. Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Was forgiveness of sins viewed as a divine prerogative, uniquely reserved for the God of Israel in early Judaism? While some scholars think this was the case, others have questioned or qualified such a view, arguing that other figures, such as priests, prophets, various messianic figures, or angels, could forgive sins in the place of God. This article surveys and critiques the main evidence that has been put forward to demonstrate this. The outcome is mainly negative. With the possible exception of one or two passages which may ascribe the authority to pardon sin to the Angel of YHWH, no firm evidence can be found which demonstrates that other figures than God forgave sins. Various strands of early Judaism conceived of human and angelic agents who interceded on behalf of others, expiated sin and mediated forgiveness from God, but they all seem to have shared the view that forgiveness is divine prerogative.
