Bock, Darrell L. "Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society." JETS 45/1 (March 2002) 3-33, 2002-2009: 33.

In this paper, the author has discussed the purpose-driven ETS at where should we go by looking towards the studies on life of Jesus. The book describes how Jesus is arrested as a rebel and how is finally executed. The death on the cross seems to be the end. However, through the resurrection, Jesus managed to get back to his God's side before that he appears several times to his disciples. They carry out this good news in the whole world.

It does not really matter whether the stories of the New Testament are legendary or not. No doubt, there were many people who could believe in their true intent and importance. Only thus, can it be explained that Christianity despite persecution survived antiquity, and eventually with the Christianization of the Roman emperor Constantine could celebrate the first major triumph. The middle Ages were finally completely dominated by Christian ideas.

With the Reformation, there were the first cracks in the ideal world. The split in the church was the beginning of a development that has led to many different Christian churches in the world today.

Translation of biblical texts in French (or any other language) often lack loyalty and 'relief' from the original texts, which sometimes gives us some difficulties to properly interpret the Word of God.

Also, those who have the habit of studying the Bible in depth know that it is important to have access to the original biblical texts to better understand and interpret scripture. However, learning Hebrew is a heavy investment, more is not given to everyone, and it should be emphasized. That is why a theologian of the 19th century named James Strong, has facilitated the task, noting simply that the words of the OT and the NT are immutable, and that was enough to alphabetize in each original language and associate next number in ascending order. This just gave the code words strong Hebrew and Old Greek Lexicon of the New Testament. He and a hundred of his colleagues after a tedious job, took out a reference to the late 19th century (The Strong's Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible) Strong with a number next to each word corresponds to one word found in the original text. This avoids when it was ...
