{"product_id":"the-kinship-of-jesus-kathleen-elizabeth-mills-9781498230315","title":"The Kinship of Jesus","description":"Christology and discipleship have largely remained separate categories in Markan scholarship. This study provides a commentary on the Gospel of Mark that underlines kinship as the nexus between Christology (Jesus and his kinship with God) and discipleship (Jesus and his kinship with disciples). Jesus, designated as the Son of God (1:1), establishes a kinship group of disciples and followers by providing them hospitality, welcoming them into his household, and addressing them in kinship terms as his family. The kinship between Jesus and God and that between Jesus and the disciples are imitative and contestive means for Mark to negotiate the Roman imperial context. In the church today, Christians still refer to their church family and to each other as brothers and sisters because of their relationship to Jesus. In a world that finds people increasingly separated from one another, this study demonstrates Jesus's formation of his own family and its continued impact on Christian identity and community.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kathleen Elizabeth Mills\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1498230318\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781498230315\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pickwick Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/31\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.70d","brand":"Kathleen Elizabeth Mills","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44181298086143,"sku":"9781498230315","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_de005fce-a3c2-419e-aaab-454944786f95.jpg?v=1690259675","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-kinship-of-jesus-kathleen-elizabeth-mills-9781498230315","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
