Le Dieu qui juge : voilà un sujet de la théologie biblique qui n'est pas sans poser problème ! Le jugement est-il l'expression de la violence de Dieu ou d'un esprit vindicatif ? S'y manifeste-t-il une image choquante de Dieu, en particulier à une époque qui, à raison, se montre sensible à toute sorte de violence légitimée par des motifs religieux ? Les auteurs de ce volume, amis et collègues de Jacques Schlosser, professeur de Nouveau Testament à l'université Marc-Bloch de Strasbourg, ont abordé ce thème du jugement afin de faire apparaître la multitude d'aspects que revêt ce terme trop général. D'où le besoin d'examiner à frais nouveaux tout un ensemble de textes pour replacer le jugement dans tous ses contextes, tant historiques que théologiques. À y regarder ainsi de plus près, il résulte que l'idée de jugement est étroitement liée à celles de droit et de justice, valeurs dont Dieu s'avère être le garant ultime, et à celles de miséricorde et de salut. Et l'on suivra ici ses transformations remarquables au fil de l'évolution de la théologie biblique. Le présent volume, qui est consacré aux textes du Nouveau Testament, est complété par un autre portant sur les textes de l'Ancien Testament.

A God who judges: a subject from biblical theology that has raised many questions! Is judgement the expression of God’s violence, or of a vengeful spirit? Does it show an image of God that shocks - especially in our times - when any kind of violence legitimated by religious motives is highly suspicious? The authors of this book are friends and colleagues of Jacques Schlosser, a teacher of the New Testament at the Marc-Bloch University in Strasbourg. They have chosen the theme of judgement because behind this term - too general by far - lie a multitude of facets, which is why we have to look at an ensemble of texts anew if we are to resituate judgement in all its historical and theological contexts. By examining them more closely, we can see that the notion of judgement is closely linked to those of law and justice, values of which God is the ultimate guardian, as well as those of mercy and salvation. Readers are invited to follow the remarkable transformations that occur throughout the evolution of biblical theology. This book, devoted to the New Testament texts, is complemented by another on the Old Testament.
