Reihe: Contributions to Biblical Exegesis & Theology

On the one hand there is a hot discussion on learning nowadays. On the
other hand, in theological research, the interest in initiation and
mystagogy as an ongoing process of learning, has been studied for the
past decades: the initiated one is taught and he/she is therefore part
of a teacher-disciple-process. This evokes the question whether
relations and communication, especially between teacher and pupil, can
be found in the Bible as well. Either implicitly or explicitly, the
roles of teacher and disciple are a part of biblical traditions,
although often neglected in biblical exegesis. This volume explores the
roles of teacher and disciple from a textual perspective. Various
biblical texts from the Torah, the Psalms, the Prophets, the Wisdom
Literature, the Gospels, and the Letters as well as the Rabbinic
Literature are dealt with. A reflection on religious teachers from the
perspective of biblical teaching and discipleship concludes this volume.
