From Messiah to Preexistent Son

Mehr zum Buch

The exploration of early Christian beliefs reveals how the earliest followers of Jesus recognized him as a divine figure alongside God. Aquila Lee argues that this understanding, known as preexistent Son Christology, originates from the interpretation of two messianic psalms, influenced by Jesus's own awareness of his divine sonship and mission. This analysis highlights the interplay between scriptural exegesis and the theological evolution of early Christianity.
