Acerca del libro

Samuel Pagan en su nuevo libro Las Parábolas del Reino de Jesús de Nazaret hace un estudio actualizado de las parábolas en los Evangelios sinópticos, donde descubre que Jesús de Nazaret era un maestro excepcional y las aplicaciones de sus enseñanzas para nuestra iglesia y mundo contemporáneo.

Esas narraciones en forma de Parábolas; se articulan con gran imaginación teológica, capacidad de comunicación y belleza literaria. Son relatos breves muy bien pensados que usan la cotidianidad para transmitir alguna enseñanza y afirmar valores éticos y principios morales. Y esas narraciones propician decisiones fundamentadas en la fe, que superan las expectativas religiosas de la época.

Por medio de esas Parábolas nos acerca al Reino de Jesús de Nazareth y a las prioridades de ese Reino .Las conclusiones del estudio de las parábolas del Reino de Jesús de Nazaret superan el disfrute de las virtudes literarias de las narraciones y sobrepasan el aprecio al mensaje profético que articulan. El mensaje de las parábolas desafía a las iglesias contemporáneas a proseguir esa tradición profética en sus programas y prioridades. Los valores del Reino deben motivar a los predicadores y las predicadoras a traducir las virtudes y los desafíos que se ponen de manifiesto en el mensaje de las parábolas en mensajes y enseñanzas contemporáneas que produzcan en los oyentes salud, bienestar, liberación y esperanza

The Parables of the Kingdom Jesus

Samuel Pagan in his new book Las Parábolas del Reino de Jesús de Nazaret(The Parables of the Kingdom of Jesus of Nazareth) looks at the parables of the Synoptic Gospels. This unique study of the timeliness teachings of Jesus of Nazareth provide perennial applications for the church today.

Those narrations in the form of Parables are articulated with great theological imagination, communication skills and literary beauty. They are well-thought-out short stories that use everyday life to convey some teaching and affirm ethical values and moral principles. And these narratives foster decisions based on faith, which subverted the religious expectations of the time.

Through these Parables, he brings us closer to the Kingdom of Jesus of Nazareth and the priorities of that Kingdom. The conclusions of the study of the parables of the Kingdom of Jesus of Nazareth surpass the enjoyment of the literary virtues of the narratives and surpass the appreciation of the prophetic message that they articulate. The message of the parables challenges contemporary churches to continue that prophetic tradition in their programs and priorities. Kingdom values should motivate preachers to translate the virtues and challenges that are revealed in the message of the parables into messages and teachings.

 Dr. Samuel Pagán, from Puerto Rico, is an ordained minister of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and Dean of Hispanic Programs at the Center for Biblical Studies in Jerusalem (CEBJ). His academic work has been extensive, which has allowed him to edit several Study Bibles, as well as write over seventy-five books and hundreds of articles on exegetical, theological, and pastoral topics. In addition, he has been the Puerto Rican scholar with a widely esteemed prominence in the complicated ministry of Bible translations, and one of the most recognized and appreciated Latin American scholars, both in academics and in the church.

Among his most widely published and commented works are: Jesus of Nazareth, King David, Introduction to the Hebrew Bible, and Commentary on the Psalms. These books highlight not only Dr. Pagán’s intellectual capacity and theological depth, but they also reveal his firm commitment to the local church. His administrative work has allowed him to serve in the Bible Societies as director of translations for the Americas, and also as president, dean, and professor of several institutions of higher theological education in Puerto Rico, the United States, Latin America, Africa, Europe, and the Far and Middle East. His pastoral ministry has been in Guaynabo and Bayamón, Puerto Rico, and in New York and Miami, USA.
