Sobre IBD

By arguing that Matthew’s Gospel can be read as a 'homecoming story' according to the ancient formula of the 'Banished and Returning Prince,' Robert Beck offers a fresh and provocative reinterpretation of the Gospel. He exploits this understanding of the narrative to disclose new elements within the plot, to identify a fresh resolution to conflict development within the tale, and to arrive at an unprecedented explanation of the place of violence and nonviolence within Matthew’s text. The traditional roles of Usurper, Impostor, and Mentor are examined for insight into what Matthew’s narrative achieves as well as, perhaps more importantly, what it excludes in the way of cultural expectations of violent reprisal.

And yet he profoundly challenges imperial cultural values. Luke launches his double narrat...

  • Nonviolent Story
    Robert R. Beck / Robert RBeck
    What do the gospels contribute to our understanding of nonviolent versus violent means of conflict resolution? Many biblical scholars contend that the gospels have little to say on this subject. Others seek answers in ethical principles found in Jesus’s teachings, which may or may not be interpreted as accepting or rejecting violence. In Nonviolent Story Robert Beck proposes a ...
