Jesus of Nazareth: The Infancy Narratives by Pope Benedict XVI (English) Paperba

Description: Jesus of Nazareth by Pope Benedict XVI The New York Times bestselling final volume in the Popes Jesus of Nazareth series, detailing how the stories of Jesus infancy and childhood are as relevant today as they were two thousand years ago. In 2007, Joseph Ratzinger published his first book as Pope Benedict XVI in order "to make known the figure and message of Jesus." Now, the Pope focuses exclusively on the Gospel accounts of Jesus life as a child. The root of these stories is the experience of hope found in the birth of Jesus and the affirmations of surrender and service embodied in his parents, Joseph and Mary. This is a story of longing and seeking, as demonstrated by the Magi searching for the redemption offered by the birth of a new king. It is a story of sacrifice and trusting completely in the wisdom of God as seen in the faith of Simeon, the just and devout man of Jerusalem, when he is in the presence of the Christ child. Ultimately, Jesus life and message is a story for today, one that speaks to the restlessness of the human heart searching for the sole truth which alone leads to profound joy. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography On April 19, 2005, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger was elected Pope Benedict XVI and became the 264th successor to Peter as the "Vicar of Jesus Christ." He may well have been the most accomplished theologian to be elected Pope in modern times. Beginning in 1981, he spent more than twenty years as the Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, a role often depicted as the "defender of the faith." Cardinal Ratzinger was also President of the Pontifical Biblical Commission and of the Preparatory Commission that codified the new Catechism of the Catholic Church, published in 1994. Pope Benedict XVI died in 2022. Excerpt from Book Chapter 1 "Where Are You From?" (John 19:9) The question about Jesus origin as a question about being and mission While he was interrogating Jesus, Pilate unexpectedly put this question to the accused: "Where are you from?" Jesus accusers had called for him to receive the death penalty by dramatically declaring that this Jesus had made himself the Son of God-a capital offense under the law.
