The main focus is the theological anthropology of the prayer texts. This aspect is described through a text-centered analysis of the ‘ideal pray-er’, one aspect of the implied audiences. An emphasis on the responses elicited by the material in question gives religious experience a central role in the theological discussion. Nygaard argues that in the Gospels humans are defined by the gifts bestowed in Jesus Christ, and through the dialogical reception of those gifts in prayer. The result is a kenotic and irreducible understanding of a 'self' defined from without, as appropriate to the ‘logic of the cross’ and the eschatology of the texts.Biblical Interpretation Series114.PrayerBiblical teachingPrayerBiblical teaching.226/.06Nygaard Mathias1523975MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785535303321Prayer in the Gospels3764351UNINA
