| biography:
| Biblical scholar and theologian, born in Strasbourg, NE France. As professor at Basel (from 1938) and Paris (from 1948), he was the chief representative in New Testament studies of the ‘biblical theology’ movement in the 1950s and 1960s. An exponent within the German school of the concept of salvation-history (Heilsgeschichte), he maintained that biblical thinking is essentially historical: God reveals Himself in historical events, not the isolated personal challenges of Bultmann's existential demythologizing approach. |
