<p>This thesis places Hebrew Christianity and Messianic Judaism on the church-sect continuum devised by Rodney Stark and William Sims Bainbridge (1979, 1980). According to an axis indicating low to high tension with the environment, Hebrew Christianity is placed on the para-church node, between the denomination and the sect. Messianic Judaism, in general, is placed on the high tension, sect end of the continuum. It is recognized, however, that individual organizations which comprise the movements may vary widely in their relationships to t he environment. Since the organizations as well as the movements may oscillate on the church-sect continuum, social movement propositions are introduced that can explain how and under what conditions these changes occur. A study of one Hebrew Christian organization, which contains both a low and a high tension group, shows, on the one hand, that a single organization can occupy two different . points on the church-sect continuum simultaneously. It shows, on the other hand, that this is made possible through the skillful use of leadership functions, which in turn is buttressed by the symbolic value of a Jewish leader. Finally, the peculiar situation of the HFOI is seen as reflective of the larger trends in the Hebrew Christian and Messianic Jewish movements, in general, and the different "agendas" of the Jewish and the Gentile followers, in particular.</p> / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Analyzed by others researchers was interpreted as being a social movement of messianic kind, common, at the beginning of the Republic, as Muckers, Canudos, Contestado, Juazeiro had happened. The main objective of the refered work is try to explain this kind of movement as being created by archetype of Terra Sem Mal, present in the Brazilian imaginary, that showed up in political, economic social crises situations. The principal hypothesis was settled with: if it is possible to understand profoundly these social movements named milenaristas, as being myths that belong to the humanity imaginary. The studies of Jung are usuful as basis to the discussion about archetypes, the ones of Sergio Buarque de Holanda are based in the vision of the paradise of colonizing that stood in the imaginary of the Brazilian people. The sense of this utopia of paradise was interpreted by the symbolic study of Eliade and complemented with the Eternal Return of the same phenomenologist. To the history part of the chosen subject the author exploited the dissertation of professor Lauro Vasconcelos, the first academic informative about Saint Dica and also with the dissertation of professor Eleonora Zicari. Newspapers, magazines, movie documentaries and field researches, complemented the data collectio Hermeneuticas being the search of sense of the social actor behavior served to reveal Saint Dica movement. The most important conclusion of this dissertation is that, albeit the political, economic and social crises, and even the ones psychologics may contribute to the rising of these movements, however, there is, independent of these external conditions, in the human imaginary, an appeal to the Paradise. In the imaginary of the Brazilian people this archetype has a cultural historical support, since the arrival of the Portuguese going through the republic messianic movement, and this appeal, as Eliade says, acts in a circular way, that is, goes and comes back, it is a Myth that always returns, specially in Saint Dica case, still present, in Lagolândia, in spite of her leader had died in 1970, thirty years ago. / Esta dissertação tem como objeto de estudo o caso de Santa Dica, acontecido no povoado de Lagoa, hoje Lagolândia, distrito de Pirenópolis, no Estado de Goiás, na década de 1920. Analisado por outros estudiosos foi interpretado como sendo um movimento social de tipo messiânico, comum, no início da república, pois os Mucker, Canudos, Contestado, Juazeiro tinham acontecido. O objetivo principal do trabalho é tentar explicar este tipo de movimento como sendo gerado pelos arquétipos da Terra sem Mal, presentes no imaginário brasileiro, que em situações de crise, tanto política, quanto econômica e social se manifestam. A hipótese principal ficou sendo: se é possível compreender de modo mais profundo estes movimentos sociais ditos milenaristas, como sendo mitos que pertencem ao imaginário da humanidade. Os estudos de Jung servem para fundamentar a reflexão sobre arquétipos, os de Sérgio Buarque de Holanda fundamentam a visão de paraíso dos colonizadores que ficou implantada no imaginário brasileiro. O sentido desta utopia do paraíso foi interpretado com o estudo simbólico de Eliade e completado pela teoria do Eterno Retorno do mesmo fenomenólogo romeno. Para a parte histórica do tema escolhido a autora trabalhou com a dissertação do professor Lauro de Vasconcelos, o primeiro informe acadêmico sobre Santa Dica, e com a dissertação da professora Eleonora Zicari. Jornais, revistas, documentários de cinema e observação de campo, complementaram a coleta de dados. A hermenêutica, como sendo a busca de sentido do comportamento do ator social serviu para desvelar o movimento de Santa Dica. Ficou como conclusão mais importante da dissertação é que muito embora, as crises sociais, econômicas, políticas e até mesmo, crises psicológicas possam contribuir com o nascimento destes movimentos, contudo existe, independente destas condições externas, no imaginário do homem um apelo para o Paraíso, no imaginário do brasileiro este arquétipo tem suporte histórico cultural, desde a chegada dos portugueses passando pelos movimentos messiânicos da república, e este apelo, como diz Eliade, age de forma circular, isto é, vai e vem, é um Mito que sempre retorna, e no caso de Santa Dica, ainda presente, em Lagolândia, apesar da líder ter morrido em 1970, há 35 anos atrás.

Since they believe in Yeshua as being Messiah, would they have a Christology? This study contemplates the possibility of distinction in the Messianic Judaism theology, which the major hypothesis is: Messianic Jews have a view in the idea of that Messiah approaches more of Messianology than of a Christology. A qualitative research was conducted on the basis of the literature review on the subject. And for that, were selected as Messianic texts for this analysis the Messianic Jewish Manifest, by Rabbi David Stern and the first two volumes of Jewish Objections Against Jesus, by Rabbi Michael Brown. It was discussed concepts such as dogmatic Christology and Messianology, as this last concept was being proposed by David Flusser in addition to checking the convergences and divergences of the idea of the Messiah for Judaism, Christianity and Messianic Judaism in the first century AD. It was also reported about history of the Messianic-Jewish movement. The collected data throughout this research should be considered to point out to the fact that Messianic-Jewish thought about the Messiah does not seem to correspond to Christological thinking. The main conclusion is that messianology can be understood as key element to build a category that best represents the theological thought of Messanic Judaism / Esta dissertação tem como objeto de estudo o judaísmo messiânico, grupo religioso que se caracteriza por crer em Yeshua (Jesus, em hebraico) como o Messias, e ao mesmo tempo por se considerar uma vertente do judaísmo. Uma vez que eles acreditam em Yeshua como Messias será que possuem uma cristologia? Trata-se de um estudo sobre a possibilidade de haver uma distinção na teologia do judaísmo messiânico, cuja hipótese principal é: os judeus messiânicos possuem uma perspectiva na sua abordagem da ideia de messias que se aproxima mais de uma messianologia do que de uma cristologia. Realizamos uma pesquisa qualitativa a partir de revisão de literatura sobre o tema. Escolhemos como textos messiânicos para esta análise o Manifesto Judeu Messiânico do Rabino David Stern e os dois primeiros volumes das Objeções Judaicas Contra Jesus, do Rabino Michael Brown. Abordamos conceitos como cristologia dogmática e messianologia, sendo este último conceito proposto por David Flusser, além de verificar as convergências e divergências da ideia de Messias para o judaísmo, cristianismo e judaísmo messiânico no século I d.C. Também discorremos sobre a história do movimento judeu-messiânico. Consideramos que os elementos colhidos ao longo desta pesquisa apontam para o fato de que o pensamento judeu-messiânico sobre o Messias não parece corresponder ao pensamento cristológico. Concluímos que a messianologia pode ser considerada uma base para uma construção de uma categoria que melhor represente o pensamento teológico do judaísmo messiânico

Scholars have often seen the interpretation of the Son of Man as crucial in discovering Jesus’ self-understanding, given that the expression occurs so frequently and almost exclusively on Jesus’ lips. After ascertaining the authenticity of the Son of Man sayings, I carry out the exegesis in the Gospel of Mark using a methodology consisting of examining Biblical passages within the context of the Bible as a whole and of historical-critical and philological perspectives. Also, the narrative context of the saying is taken into account. I show that the Son of Man is a Messianic title derived from Daniel 7:13, and that the book of Daniel’s content and themes were used as a basis for the Son of Man sayings themselves. In addition to using the Son of Man as a Messianic title, Jesus used the title as a claim for divinity.

The thesis examines the concept of history in the thinking of Walter Benjamin and Theodor W. Adorno. It systematically inquires into texts of the period between 1913 and 1932. Benjamin's thought is interpreted in its whole, with regards to his key concepts of messianic salvation, profane revolution, biblical fall, mythical positing of right, and actuality of the present. Adorno's contribution to the concept of history is examined on the basis of three early texts from the beginning of the thirties. The thesis follows first the evolution of the concept of history in the thought of Benjamin and then turns toward the relation between the explicated deliberations regarding the theme and the conception of Adorno. The major change which occurs during Adorno's accepting of Benjamin's terminology and thoughts lies in the fact that the concept of history is moved from the theological-eschatological context to the context of praxis. Key Words Philosophy of history, messianic salvation, revolution, myth, right, actuality, configuration.
