According to Matthew: The Gospel of Christ's Humanity
According to Matthew The Gospel of Christ's Humanity Author:Rudolf Steiner, Catherine E. Creeger For centuries people have been baffled by the four different accounts of Christs life as presented in the New Testament's Gospels, and many have struggled to reconcile them. In these profound and stimulating lectures, the great spiritual visionary Rudolf Steiner addresses this perplexing problem. He shows how each of the Gospels presents ... more »a different "lens" through which we can view Jesus Christs life and message. Here Steiner focuses on Matthew, revealing it as the Gospel that emphasizes the humanity of Christ. Steiner does not stop there, however. He traces Christs life and message to spiritual impulses that go back centurieseven millenniato the legendary civilization of Atlantis, to the mysterious figure known as Zarathustra, or Zoroaster, and to the Jewish sect known as the Essenes. An introduction by Richard Smoley, author of Inner Christianity (2003), puts Steiners vision into perspective for modern readers. Once you experience Steiners powerful exploration of Matthew, you will never see the Gospels in the same way again. According to Matthew is a companion volume to According to Luke (2001) and to the forthcoming volumes on John and Mark.« less
