Institutionalization of Authority and the Naming of Jesus by Yolanda Dreyer Pdf
This book is about the names given to Jesus by those followers responsible for putting his words and deeds into writing-the earliest "Christian scribes." In the first-century Mediterranean world, the first name of male person was his proper name. The second name indicated the family or clan to which he belonged, whereas the third name was an "honorary title" bestowed on him because of some achievement, good fortune, physical attribute, or "special excellence." Honorary titles were bestowed on Jesus mostly after his death. Such titles were often given to sages. The titles could either amplify Jesus' wisdom and empower people, or serve as instruments of power. This book aims to demonstrate the ideological and political mystification of Jesus in the transmission of the tradition about him. It illustrates the relevance of --The social history of formative Christianity; --The evolution of the Jesus traditions; --The genre of the gospels as biography; and --The institutionalization of charismatic authority.

This book explores the development of a titular Christology within the narrative world of the Gospel of Mark. Preliminary attention is given to the historical background of various titles, but the primary focus is on the literary foreground. Broadhead analyses the distribution of various titles throughout the narrative, describes the associations established, and notes the level of confirmation offered. His major focus is on the development of each title within the larger literary strategy and the effect of this strategy upon the christological presentation. He concludes that such titles are not inherently christological, but become so within the literary world of the Gospel of Mark.
