Clark-Soles explores the ways in which the author of the Fourth Gospel deploys scripture to form his sectarian community. The first part of the book provides the sociological framework for addressing the role of scripture within sectarian communities. By definition, sects are in conflict with a parent tradition. How, if at all, does a sect appropriate those texts that not only "belong" to the parent tradition but also are used by that parent tradition to deride the sectarians? By investigating the dynamics of scripture in the ancient Qumran community and in the modern Branch Davidian community, Clark-Soles sheds light on the community of the Fourth Gospel.The Social Function of the Use of Scripture in the Fourth GospelQumran communitySocial scientific criticism of sacred worksElectronic books.Qumran community.Social scientific criticism of sacred works.226.5/067Clark-Soles Jaime1040361NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910450101603321Scripture Cannot Be Broken2463144UNINA
