  • The Pharisees, Jesus, and the Politics of Roman Palestine, Volume 2
    Richard A. Horsley
    Volume 2, Jesus and the Pharisees in the Politics of Roman Palestine, continues to avoid the synthetic constructs in the fields of biblical studies and ancient Jewish history that obscure the increasingly complex historical context.

  • The Pharisees, Jesus, and the Politics of Roman Palestine, Volume 1
    Richard A. Horsley
    Understanding of the Pharisees and other scribal groups in the late Second-Temple era has been obscured by the imposition of synthetic constructs of (early) Judaism in the fields of biblical studies and ancient Jewish history. Similarly, the conflict between the Pharisees and Jesus has been obscured and distorted by the continuing imposition of the synthetic constructs of (earl...

  • Politics, Conflict, and Movements in First-Century Palestine
    Richard A. Horsley
    This volume brings together groundbreaking essays that laid the foundations of several of Horsley’s later works. The initial aims of these essays were, first, to ferret out evidence from our sources, primarily from the histories of Josephus, evidence for the lives of ordinary people living in Judean and Galilean villages. A second purpose was to explore as precisely as possible...

  • The Pharisees and the Temple-State of Judea
    Richard A. Horsley
    Far from being a stable situation, the historical context in the late Second Temple Era was full of conflict at the level of the empires and that of the rulers in Palestine. Ordinary people, including both Jerusalemites and villagers, periodically mounted resistance and even revolts against exploitative and/or domineering rulers. Pharisees and scribes, sometimes as retainers of...

  • Jesus and Magic
    Richard A. Horsley / Richard AHorsley
    It has become standard in modern interpretation to say that Jesus performed miracles, and even mainline scholarly interpreters classify Jesus’s healings and exorcisms as miracles. Some highly regarded scholars have argued, more provocatively, that the healings and exorcisms were magic, and that Jesus was a magician. As Richard Horsley points out, if we make a critical compariso...

  • Text and Tradition in Performance and Writing
    Richard A. Horsley / Richard AHorsley
    Embedded in modern print culture, biblical scholars have been projecting the assumptions and concepts of print culture onto the texts they interpret. In the ancient world from which those texts originate, however, literacy was confined to only a small number of educated scribes. And, as recent research has shown, even the literate scribes learned texts by repeated recitation, w...

  • The Prophet Jesus and the Renewal of Israel
    Richard Horsley
    Debate over whether or not Jesus can be best interpreted within an 'apocalyptic scenario' has continued to dominate historical Jesus studies since Schweitzer and Bultmann. In The Prophet Jesus and the Renewal of Israel Richard Horsley shows that the apocalyptic scenario -- with its supposed expectation of 'the end of the world,' the fiery 'last judgment,' and 'the parousia of t...

  • The Liberation of Christmas
    Richard A. Horsley / Richard Horsley
    Current biblical scholarship tends to treat the nativity narratives as having little historical basis and to see in them illustrations of the particular theologies of Matthew and Luke. Nonbiblical scholarship sees in these narratives only an adaptation of traditional folklore themes relating to the birth of the hero. This leaves the ordinary Christian in a vacuum that the mass ...
