Comblin", studies the Mucker Movement, which was born in 1868, in S?o Leopoldo, Rio Grande do Sul, and was terminated at August 1874. It consisted of German immigrants and descendants, belonging to Protestant and Catholic churches, inserted in a society where they felt marginalized by the capitalism. Around the healer Jo?o Jorge Maurer and his wife Jacobina Mentz, who from 1873 went on to lead the movement, was started a religious group that was later called Mucker. Together, they have created a society capable of correcting social injustices, a society different from the one where they used to live. The movement, which challenged the civil and religious power in the mid-nineteenth century, will be confronted with the religious movement that Jesus of Nazareth has created in Palestine in the first century, the Christianity, since there was also, in his society, injustices similar to those that existed in the German immigrants one. It is therefore a work that approaches the two movements: the one leaded by Jacobina Mentz and early Christianity, originated by Jesus of Nazareth. / A presente disserta??o de Mestrado em Teologia, O Movimento Mucker ? luz do cristianismo primitivo na interpreta??o de Rinaldo Fabris e Jos? Comblin, estuda o movimento, que nasceu em 1868, na sociedade de S?o Leopoldo, Rio Grande do Sul, e foi exterminado em agosto de 1874. Era composto de imigrantes alem?es e descendentes, pertencentes ?s igrejas Protestante e Cat?lica, inseridos numa sociedade em que, pelo capitalismo, sentiam-se marginalizados. Em torno do curandeiro Jo?o Jorge Maurer e sua esposa Jacobina Mentz que, a partir de 1873, passou a liderar o movimento, nasceu um grupo religioso que mais tarde foi chamado de Mucker. Unidos, criaram uma sociedade capaz de corrigir as injusti?as sociais, diferente daquela em que viviam. O movimento, que desafiou o poder civil e religioso, nos meados do s?culo XIX, ser? confrontado com o movimento religioso que Jesus de Nazar? criou na Palestina do s?culo I, o Cristianismo, pois tamb?m havia, nessa sociedade, injusti?as semelhantes ?s que existiam na col?nia de imigrantes alem?es. ?, portanto, um trabalho de aproxima??o do movimento de Jacobina Mentz e do Cristianismo primitivo, que tem suas origens na prega??o de Jesus de Nazar?.
