‘Seated at the Right Hand of the Father’
The following essay argues that Mark’s empty tomb narrative taps into broader Jewish and Graeco-Roman cultural assumptions in which the disappearance of a body might suggest that the person concerned had been taken up into the realm of the gods. The purpose of Mark 16.1–8, therefore, is not to prove Jesus’s physical, fleshly resurrection, but rather to show that he is now in the heavenly realm, ‘seated at the right hand of the Father’ (14.62)
A Fitting End? Self-Denial and a Slave's Death in Mark's Life of Jesus
The present article argues that rather than look for a traditional Jewish model behind Mark's passion narrative (such as an account of the Suffering Righteous One), we would do better to understand the composition of the whole gospel – both the central body of teaching in 8.22–10.45 and the passion narrative – as influenced by the genre of ancient philosophical lives. After considering ways in which biographies tended to present the deaths of phi…
Dating the Death of Jesus
After discussing the scholarly preference for dating Jesus' crucifixion to 7 April 30 CE, this article argues that the precise date can no longer be recovered. All we can claim with any degree of historical certainty is that Jesus died some time around Passover (perhaps a week or so before the feast) between 29 and 34 CE. The emergence of the Johannine tradition (in which Jesus died on the day of Preparation) and the Markan tradition (in which Je…
Pontius Pilate
The fifth Roman prefect of Judaea (26–early 37 CE ), Pilate gained notoriety for his part in the crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth.
Josephus on Herod’s Domestic Intrigue in the Jewish War
This article argues that women and domestic intrigue are prominent within the Herod narrative in Josephus’ Jewish War for a specific rhetorical reason. While the first half of the narrative presents the famous king in encomiastic terms, using him to illustrate Josephus’ contention that Jews generally were content to remain loyal to Rome, the second half of the account subtly presents a rather different thesis. Attention to domestic drama allowed …
Paul, the Corinthians, and Reconciliation
Caiaphas
The Coins of Pontius Pilate
Il semble qu'un lien direct entre le monnayage de Ponce Pilate et un complot antijuif dirige par Sejanus, le prefet de la garde pretorienne, soit peu problable si jamais un tel complot a existe. En revanche, il est possible que le monnayage reflete une attitude generale a l'egard des Juifs sous Tibere. Ponce Pilate apparait moins favorable aux coutumes juives que ne l'ont ete ses predecesseurs sous Auguste. Son monnayage est un melange de motifs …
