The textbook bridges the gap between biblical exegesis and biblical didactics. After providing an overview of the history and significance of biblical didactics and recent methodological approaches, Kollmann addresses central themes of the New Testament, including parables, the Sermon on the Mount, miracle stories, the Passion, and the resurrection of Jesus. Each discussion of the scientific and didactic fundamental questions of the individual themes is followed by an exegetical examination of key texts, which also offers insights into specific points of connection for religious education. The selection of texts is aligned with the curricula for religious education. Thus, religious educators in both study and profession receive reliable information about scientific backgrounds and didactic perspectives.
