Др. раннехрист. текст, вызвавший бурную дискуссию в научной среде,- «Евангелие Петра», известное в цитатах (в сир. Дидаскалии, у мч. Иустина, сщмч. Мелитона и Оригена). Рукопись VIII-IX вв. с полным текстом была обнаружена в 1886-1887 гг. в В. Египте. Хотя изначально большинство ученых поддержали позицию Т. Цана , утверждавшего зависимость этого Е. а. от синоптической традиции (вопреки мнению А. фон Гарнака ), в 80-х гг. XX в. были выдвинуты новые аргументы в пользу его независимости (сначала Р. Камероном, затем Кёстером и Дж. Д. Кроссаном, к-рые апеллировали к папирусному фрагменту P. Oxy. 2949). Кроссан предположил, что в «Евангелии Петра» был использован тот же источник, повествующий о Страстях Господа, что и в Евангелии от Марка, однако в апокриф он был включен в менее редактированном виде ( Crossan. 1985; I dem. 1988). Против гипотезы Кроссана выступил Р. Браун, доказывавший зависимость «Евангелия Петра» от синоптиков на основе метода анализа редакций ( Brown. 1987). Важным аргументом против древности этого апокрифа может служить его ярко выраженная антииудейская направленность. Кроме того, была поставлена под вопрос и принадлежность к этому евангелию указанных папирусных фрагментов (см.: Foster P. Are there any Early Fragments of the So-Called Gospel of Peter?//NTS. 2006. Vol. 52. P. 1-28). В целом ответом на позицию либеральных критиков, отстаивающих достоверность Е. а., может служить указание по крайней мере на одно их важное отличие от канонических Евангелий - отсутствие признаков опоры на показания свидетелей, ближайших учеников Христовых (см.: Bauckham R. Jesus and Eyewitnesses: the Gospels as Eyewitness Testimony. Grand Rapids; Camb., 2006). Во 2-й пол. XX в. помимо нового издания труда Шнеемельхера ( Schneemelcher. 19906; предшествующая книга Хеннеке была полностью переработана) вышло неск. собраний Е. а. (в основном в переводах на европ. языки: Erbetta, ed. 1966-1975; Moraldi, ed. 1971; Starowieyski, ed. 1980; Klijn, ed. 1984. Bd. 1; Santos Otero, ed. 19886; Bovon, Geoltrain, ed. 1997; обзор изданий восточнохрист. Е. а. см.: Augustinianum. R., 1983. Vol. 23; Complementi interdisciplinari di patrologia/Ed. A. Quacquarelli.

The vine image could thus imply a sense of community 8878 the Jewish believers inherited from early Judaism in genera1. Whereas the Eleusinian cult of Demeter, for example, met only annually and did not lead initiates to associate with one another, early Judaism and Christianity were exclusivistic and carried a strong sense of community. 8879 Nevertheless, early Christian literature provides no examples of early Christian communities with the sort of rigid hierarchical structure expected of Qumran Covenanters (e.g., 1QS 5.23–24; 6.2). Most early Jews and Christians associated for common worship and need; formal structures were less rigid than Qumran, but sufficient. If the vine alludes to Israel, the designation «true» (15:1) may forcefully contrast Jesus with Israe1. 8880 One should not overstate the contrast; whereas «true» can exclude any others (17:3), it can also simply contrast with «mere.» «True bread» does not contrast Jesus with Torah but does contrast him with mere manna (6:32, 55); «true light» contrasts him with an inferior though accurate witness (1:9). Such passages may respond to opponents of the Johannine community " s witness who claim that Jesus» way is not «true» (cf. 5:31–32; 7:18; 8:13–17; 19:35; 21:24). John " s «vine» image may function in the same way that Paul " s «olive tree» image does; in both cases, disobedient branches are broken off ( John 15:2, 6 ; Rom 11:17 ), though John, most of whose audience probably already regards itself as Jewish, does not emphasize any grafting on of foreign branches. Here as elsewhere (cf. comment on 3:3–5), for John, «becoming a true Jew and becoming a Christian are one and the same thing.» 8881 2. The Vinedresser " s Pruning (15:1–3) The figure of God as the vinedresser (15:1) is not completely unexpected. Gardeners often belonged to the poorest class (Apuleius Metam. 9.31), such as those who might lease rather than own a vineyard (P.Oxy. 1631.9–13). 8882 Yet not all farmers (γεωργο) were poor, 8883 and in any case, this fact is less significant than other backgrounds for the image; Jesus himself appears as a sort of gardener in 20:15. 8884 Naturally, Greek texts could sometimes portray Dionysus as the ultimate vinedresser (Achilles Tatius 2.3.2). 8885 Far more important, OT images of Israel as God " s vine imply God or his workers as tenders of that vine; Paul speaks of God " s church as his field, his γεργιον ( 1Cor 3:9 ). 2A. A Vinedresser " s Attention

6774 For «remaining forever,» cf. 12:34; 1 John 2:17; 2 John 2 (there are only three non-Johannine uses in the NT; cf. 1 Esd 4:37–38). That legal adoption of a son was also μνω (P.Oxy. 1206.9) is probably irrelevant. 6775 E.g., Dio Chrysostom Or. 64.13. 6776 E.g., Sipre Deut. 40.6.1 (parable); b. B. Bat. 10a (about Akiba but probably later); Deut. Rab. 3:2; Pesiq. Rab. 27:3; see further Montefiore and Loewe, Anthology, 117–18. 6777 See Westcott, John, 134; Sanders, John, 221 ; Evans, John, 93. For background on Hagar " s and Ishmael " s «freeing» as slaves, see Sarna, Genesis, 128–29,155–57. 6778 E.g., Culpepper, Anatomy, 157. 6779         Jos. Asen. 10:4; 17:4; possibly Acts 13:1; Dixon, Mothers, 128. 6780 For people dwelling in shrines, see, e.g., Livy 40.51.8. The gate of John 10 could allude to the prince and his people going in and out through the gate of Ezek 46:9–10 , but the phraseology may be much broader than that: Num 27:17 ; 2Sam 5:2; 1 Kgs 3:7; 1 Chr 11:2. 6781 E.g., Isaeus Estate of Astyphilus 16; Estate of Nicostratus 27–31; Lysias Or. 7.24–33, §110–111; 7.41, §112; 16; 18; Cicero Verr. 2.1.6.17; Vat. 1.1–2; Rosc. com. 7.21; Pro Sulla 24.68; 26.72; Dionysius of Halicarnassus Isaeus 3, 9; Rhet. ad Herenn. 4.50.63; Valerius Maximus 8.5.6; Acts 23:1. 6782 E.g., Plutarch Demosthenes 11.4; Cicero 38.2–6; 40.3. Sometimes even the butt of the joke was forced to laugh (Xenophon Cyr. 2.2.16). 6783 Plutarch Cicero 5.4; 27.1; 39.1. Cicero was sometimes intemperate with his vice lists (e.g., Pis. 27.66)! 6784 E.g., Lysias Or. 3.1, §96; Aeschines Against Timarchus passim, esp. (and ironically!) 179; False Embassy 3,14,56,69; Thucydides 3.61.1; Cicero Verr. 2.1.6.17; Rosc. Amer. 30.82–45.132; Cae1. 13.31; 24.60; Quinct. 3.11–9.33 (the entire narratio!); Pro Scauro 13.29; Sest. 37.80; Matt 12:24–45; probably Acts 24(implied in the anacoluthon); cf. comments in Anderson, Glossary, 72–73. Occasionally one brought countercharges only afterward (Thucydides 3.70.3–4); such behavior might serve to deter future claimants.

И. не входит в число 12 апостолов, а потому возникает вопрос: веровал ли он в Иисуса Христа до Его Воскресения или уверовал позже? Как евангелист Иоанн, так и евангелисты-синоптики отмечают, что родственники Спасителя на начальном этапе Его общественного служения если не противились Его проповеди, то по крайней мере встретили ее непониманием. В Мк 3. 20-21 приводится высказывание о «ближних» Христа, считавших, что «Он вышел из себя», и желавших увести Его от народа. В Мк 6. 4 Сам Христос, вероятно намекая на отношение к Нему близких, образно говорит, что «не бывает пророк без чести, разве только в отечестве своем и у сродников и в доме своем». Однако в ряде параллельных мест упоминание родственников отсутствует (ср.: Лк 4. 24; Ин 4. 44; Ev. Thom. 31; P. Oxy. 1. 5). Делались даже предположения о том, что евангелист Марк намеренно выставляет братьев Спасителя в негативном свете ввиду полемики, к-рая имела место в момент составления этого Евангелия между сторонниками И. и ап. Павла ( Crossan. 1973). Однако «неверие» братьев отмечает и евангелист Иоанн (Ин 7. 5). В то же время он сообщает, что братья сопровождали Христа в Капернаум (Ин 2. 12), возможно, присутствовали на брачном пиру в Кане (ср.: Ep. apost. 5), а позже предлагали Ему совершить чудеса на празднике Кущей (Ин 7. 2-5). Т. е. скорее следует говорить о неверном понимании или недопонимании братьями целей служения Христа, а не о полном отвержении Его. Тем не менее в Ин 19. 26-27 Спаситель поручает Пресв. Богородицу заботам ап. Иоанна, а не Своих братьев. В Зап. Церкви получила распространение иная т. зр., впервые сформулированная блж. Иеронимом в полемике с Гельвидием. Гельвидий (сочинение к-рого сохр. лишь в цитатах у блж. Иеронима), отрицая приснодевство Марии, настаивал на том, что братья Господни являются Его кровными, родными, братьями, т. е. детьми Девы Марии и Иосифа. В качестве доказательства он обратил внимание на то, что Христос назван первенцем Девы Марии в Мф 1. 24-25 и Лк 2. 7, что подразумевает вероятность рождения др. детей, а также на возможность толкования Мф 1. 18, 25 как указания на последовавшие за Рождеством супружеские отношения Иосифа и Пресв. Девы ( Hieron. Adv. Helvid. 3, 9, 11, 17, 18). Гельвидий также ссылался на предшествующую традицию толкования, в частности на сочинения Тертуллиана, мнение которого, хотя и нечетко выраженное, было похоже на позицию Гельвидия (ср.: Tertull. Adv. Marcion. 4. 19; Idem. De carn. Chr. 7; Idem. De monog. 8). В Новое время теория Гельвидия была возрождена протестант. экзегетами, к-рые настаивали на том, что греч. слово δελφς может обозначать только родных братьев, имеющих одних и тех же отца и мать.

10829 On the coherency of 20:30–21:25 if one wishes to read the Gospel as a whole, see Segovia, «Farewel1.» 10831 Talbert, John, 63–64, points out that we have this chapter in the final, canonical form of the text, which is the available object for literary inquiry. 10832 Sandmel, Judaism, 389. Philostratus " s third-century C.E. Heroikos distributes Protesilaos " s appearances over a wide geographic range (Hrk. 11.7–8; Maclean and Aitken, Heroikos, xxvi-xxvii), but this may be too late and peripheral to prove relevant. 10835 Meier, Marginal Jew, 2:896–904; Quast, Reading, 141; cf. Fuller, Formation, 151. Perhaps less likely is the view that Luke uses a resurrection appearance account in a pre-Easter context (Fuller, Formation, 160–61), making John more helpful for historical reconstruction here (Brown, Essays, 269–70). 10836 Blomberg, «Miracles as Parables,» 345. Many who find a parallel doubt «a direct literary relationship» (see Smith, John 390–91). 10839 Later, CD 4.15–17; 1QH 5.7–8; L.A.B. 3:11; Matt 13:47; Strauss, «Quellen.» For proposals on this background, see Jeremias, Theology, 132–33; Fenton, Matthew, 73; Gundry, Matthew, 62; Lane, Mark, 67–68; MacLaurin, «Fishermen.» 10843 A bilingual milieu may also help explain Jesus» use of the figure, since «catch» (Heb. tzud, Aram, tzade) could apply to both physical catching and to winning others by deception or debate (Lachs, Commentary, 58–59); that image also appears in Greek (Boring et a1., Commentary, 55). 10844 See Keener, Matthew, 148–49; Davies and Allison, Matthew, 393–94; Witherington, Christology, 129–30. 10846 Safrai, «Home,» 747.

Luci1. 95.10; Virtue in Ep. Luci1. 66.27, though Ep. Luci1. 113 mocks a more literalistic personification of the Virtues). 3020 Burney, Origin, 38; J. A. Robinson, Historical Character, 104–5; Hayward, «Name»; Brown-lee, «Whence,» 179; Barclay, «Themes,» 79–80; cf. Westcott, John, xvi. Tg. Neof. 1 on Gen. 1does associate the Memra with Wisdom. 3022 Box, «Intermediation» (answering Moore); Stuart, «Examination,» 20–22 (occasionally); cf. Middleton, «Logos,» 129. Middleton, «Logos,» argues that Shekinah (pp. 113–23) and Yekara (128) are also used as circumlocutions.
