Über diesen Titel

This presentation explores how New Testament imagery regarding the blood of Jesus serves as the fulfillment of three specific Old Testament themes: covenant, atonement, and ransom. I argues that while modern readers often conflate these concepts, they functioned as distinct theological categories within the context of the Ancient Near East. Specifically, blood acted as a binding agent for communal unions, a purification ritual for sacred spaces, and a redemptive price for liberation from bondage. By examining these historical roots, the research demonstrates how the sacrifice of Christ integrates these separate functions into a single, comprehensive act.

Ultimately, the text provides a framework for understanding biblical theology through the cultural lens of sacred blood rituals.
