| dc.description.abstract | The remarks in John 5:19-23 should be understood in the context of education practices in ancient times. The dynamics of the metaphorical language used in these verses are explored and related to the appropriate socio-cultural framework. The Father educates the Son and prepares him for his mission. He teaches him to give life and to exercise eschatological judgment. This legitimizes the position of Jesus as the one who works like his Father does. | en |
