À propos de cet audio

In The First Christmas, two of today's top Jesus scholars, Marcus J. Borg and John Dominic Crossan, join forces to show how history has biased our reading of the nativity story as it appears in the gospels of Matthew and Luke. As they did for Easter in their previous book, The Last Week, here they explore the beginning of the life of Christ, peeling away the sentimentalism that has built up over the last 2,000 years around this most well known of all stories to reveal the truth of what the gospels actually say.

Borg and Crossan help us to see this well-known narrative afresh by answering the question, "What do these stories mean?" in the context of both the first century and the 21st century. They successfully show that the Christmas story, read in its original context, is far richer and more challenging than people imagine.

It contains a whole lot of information. It really makes you think about the Christmas story.

VERY INTERESTING

This comprehensive and profound understanding of the meaning of Christmas and the Nativity narratives feels as though it should be more pronounced and evident in the season, the world, and indeed in so many so-called Christian communities.

Maybe a bit “listy” (and heavy on citations) for an audio performance.
