What Did Jesus Mean?: Explaining the Sermon on the Mount and the Parables in Simple and Universal Human Concepts
Wierzbicka, Anna (Professor of Linguistics, Professor of Linguistics, Australian National University)
This interdisciplinary work aims to cast light on the words of Jesus by taking the author's semantic theory of "universal human concepts" - concepts which are intuitively understandable and self-explanatory across languages - and bringing it to bear on Jesus' parables and the Sermon on the Mount.
