TY - GEN T1 - Seeking the imperishable treasure : wealth, wisdom, and a Jesus saying A1 - Johnson, Steven R., 1961- LA - English PP - Cambridge, U.K. PB - James Clarke & Co. YR - 2010 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/jstor_eba_ocn952331567 AB - This book tracks the use of a single saying of Jesus over time and among theologically divergent authors and communities and identifies six different versions of the saying in the canonical gospels and epistles, as well as the Gospel of Thomas and Q. After tracing the tradition and redaction history of this wisdom admonition, the author observes at least two distinctly different wisdom themes that are applied to the saying: the proper disposition of wealth and the search for knowledge, wisdom, or God. What he discovers is a saying of Jesus with roots in Jewish wisdom and pietistic traditions, OP - 183 NO - Originally published: Eugene, Or. : Cascade Books, ©2008.
