Abstract

It is only since the last third of the twentieth century that Jesus research has concentrated more strongly on contexts of the preaching, the praxis, and the general experiences of the man from Nazareth, other than those contexts which belong to the history of religions. Here only one limited sector namely social and political factors in Jewish society at the time of Jesus will be studied . It is hoped that the concept of in the title of this essay will alert the reader to the fact that a causal connection between the political and societal conditions of life and the preaching and praxis of Jesus is not assumed. The shift in the political and social climate of Galilee lends an additional plausibility to the rise of the Jesus movement. Keywords:Galilee; Jesus; Jewish society; Nazareth; political climate; praxis; preaching
