The collected essays on the New Testament present a Christological work by Rudolf Frieling that is of crucial importance for contemporary theology. With clear, direct language, the reader is immersed in the world of the New Testament, both fundamentally and historically as well as in the present. Faith, knowledge, vision - words that have divided theology since the last century - are relevantly interconnected in Rudolf Frieling's studies and form a unity for his method. It represents a overcoming of supposed oppositions, a synthesis of the human sources of experience.
