Blessed: Rudolf Steiner on The Beatitudes - Adrian Anderson

Descriere Blessed: Rudolf Steiner on The Beatitudes - Adrian Anderson

\nA comprehensive study of the Beatitudes from Rudolf Steiner's Complete Works and the ancient Greek of St. Matthew's Gospel.\n \nRudolf Steiner revealed a new aspect to the Gospels, profoundly deepening the way we understand Christianity; he demonstrates that it has a cosmic dimension, and that this hidden side is pointed to in the Gospels themselves.\n \nDr. Anderson's scholarship in ancient Greek has enabled him to pioneer a new modality in New Testament studies: the Initiatory Critical Analysis approach. His academic studies found evidence in the original Greek texts of a hidden layer of meaning, which confirms that the Gospels have an esoteric, cosmic understanding of the Christ. Rudolf Steiner's teachings are explored on the basis of this new, spiritually-informed mode of assessing the Greek text of the Beatitudes. \n \n All of Rudolf Steiner's teachings in published lectures and archive documents on the Beatitudes are presented here, together with a valuable commentary on these lectures by Dr. Anderson.\n \nSteiner's earliest lecture on this theme is included, with a commentary, and alternative versions of some key sentences, to those in the official publication.\n \nTexts relevant to the Beatitudes from old Gnostic-spiritual sources are included. Rare commentary from the esoteric theologian, Origenes, preserved in old codices, not included in his official writings, have been especially translated for this book.\n
