Product Description

En este original y oportuno libro —el primero que escribe desde su elección como papa—, Benedicto XVI rescata la figura de Jesús de recientes descripciones «populares» y restaura la verdadera identidad de Jesús que nos presentan los Evangelios. El papa, con su excepcional lucidez como teólogo y su convicción personal como creyente, nos presenta un retrato de Jesús impactante y veraz, y nos invita a encontrarnos cara a cara con la figura principal de la fe cristiana.

De Jesús de Nazaret: «La gran pregunta que nos acompañará a lo largo de todo este libro: ¿qué ha traído Jesús realmente, si no ha traído la paz al mundo, el bienestar para todos, un mundo mejor? ¿Qué ha traído?
La respuesta es muy sencilla: a Dios. Ha traído a Dios. Aquel Dios cuyo rostro se había ido revelando primero poco a poco, desde Abraham hasta la literatura sapiencial, pasando por Moisés y los Profetas; el Dios que sólo había mostrado su rostro en Israel y que, si bien entre muchas sombras, había sido honrado en el mundo de los pueblos; ese Dios, el Dios de Abraham, Isaac y Jacob, el Dios verdadero, Él lo ha traído a los pueblos de la tierra.
Ha traído a Dios: ahora conocemos su rostro, ahora podemos invocarlo. Ahora conocemos el camino que debemos seguir como hombres en este mundo. Jesús ha traído a Dios y, con Él, la verdad sobre nuestro origen y nuestro destino; la fe, la esperanza y el amor».


About the Author

On April 19, 2005, CARDINAL JOSEPH RATZINGER was elected POPE BENEDICT XVI and became the 264th successor to Peter as the "Vicar of Jesus Christ." He may well be the most accomplished theologian to be elected Pope in modern times. Beginning in 1981 he spent over 20 years as the Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, a role often depicted as the “defender of the faith.” Cardinal Ratzinger was also President of the Pontifical Biblical Commission and of the Preparatory Commission that codified the new Catechism of the Catholic Church, published in 1994.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente libro, March 3, 2008
Excelente libro para conocer más a fondo la vida de Jesús. Aunque está escrito en un lenguaje accesible, requiere un cierto esfuerzo por parte del lector. Sin duda dejará una profunda huella en quien lo lea.

5.0 out of 5 stars Personal o eclesial??, February 10, 2009
El santo padre nos dice en parte de su prologo que es un libro no eclesial sino personal y que los lectores tenemos derecho a criticar lo que ahi se dice, sin embaargo la riqueza que encontramos en la experiencia de vida de nuestro Papa es la riqueza que la Madre Iglesia nos ha venido transmitiendo a travez de los ańos.

Excelente Libro

5.0 out of 5 stars The Professor Pope, June 4, 2009
By M. F. Wiegand (San Antonio, TX) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Pope Benedict XVI has received some undeserved "bad press", regarding his degree of understanding and tolerance of other religions, which a reading of this book dispells. This short book, essentially, a series of essays, is remarkable for its breadth of scholarship and deep spiritual insight. The Pope is revealed as a profound and compassionate thinker, and, most importantly, a teacher, whose towering intellect never overcomes his humility. If John Paul II was the Pastoral Pope, Benedict XVI is the Professor Pope. He is intellectually fearless, and knows that Christianity is nothing if it cannot ask and answer the most difficult questions which modernity poses: Is Jesus real? Is he God, or only a philosopher, or liberal rabbi? The Pope poses these, and considers the debate of ideas as if he were in a college theology classroom where lively intellectual freedom and mutual respect are paramount. His conclusions are compelling and compassionate. One senses that his desire to communicate is the result of a deep love for his fellow man- and not just for Catholics, but a love of all humanity regardless of creed, or lack thereof.
