Synopsis
Contributing Authors

English summary: The essays and studies in this volume deal with the question of how early Christianity was inculturated in its environment. This includes the essentials of this inculturation, such as for example the quest for the historical Jesus as well as the discussion about Paul and his environment. In addition, the author examines the imperial cult serving as one of the definitive foils for the interpretation of the New Testament scriptures and continues the debate on the status and the role of the genders in early Christianity. He also provides insight into the gradual development of rites and rituals as well as their reinterpretation in the incipient gnosis. On the whole, this volume presents a panorama of work on the history of religion in the field of the New Testament in a manner which is typical of the author and his understanding of exegesis. German description: In den hier versammelten Aufsatzen und Studien beschaftigt sich Bernhard Heininger mit der Frage, wie sich das fruhe Christentum in die es umgebende Umwelt inkulturierte. Zentrale Themen des Bandes sind die Grundlagen dieser Inkulturation, unter anderem die Ruckfrage nach dem historischen Jesus, und die Auseinandersetzung mit Paulus und seiner Umwelt. Dabei wird der Kaiserkult als eine der massgeblichen Folien fur die Interpretation neutestamentlicher Schriften ebenso thematisiert wie die allmahliche Ausbildung von Riten und Ritualen, deren Reinterpretation in der beginnenden Gnosis und die Debatte um Status und Rolle der Geschlechter im fruhen Christentum. Zusammengenommen entsteht so ein Panorama religionsgeschichtlichen Arbeitens am Neuen Testament, wie es fur den Autor und sein Verstandnis von Exegese charakteristisch ist.
