Zusammenfassung:The (re)discovery of the fact that Jesus was a Jew has made Christian theology very nervous since the beginning of the 18h century. How could a Jew who was faithful to the Torah be the saviour of the world? This is why theology either fundamentally opposed historical-critical thinking that emerged in the time of Enlightenment, or it tried to hide the Jewish aspects of Jesus by constructing Jesus "historically" as an opponent of Judaism. With this, though, many of the things that Jesus of Nazareth thought and wanted became incomprehensible - up until the present day. To remedy this, Christianity urgently needs a better knowledge of Jesus' cultural background and of the Jewish context of the New Testament.
