Title A son in heaven, but no father on earth: A note in the margin of a ‘Tale of Two Kings’
 
Creator Verheyden, Joseph
 
Subject — Fatherlessness in antiquity; child abandoned in antiquity; A.G. van Aarde; C. Tuor-Kurth; historical-psychological exegesis; Moses-typology; voluntary humility
Description The article is meant to offer a comment on the thesis of Andries G. van Aarde about the socalled fatherlessness of Jesus. The author argues for a more critical disposition towards a historical-psychological approach of ancient texts. Jesus’ attitude towards children, which is illustrated in Mark 10:13–16, and the story of Jesus’ birth and of Herod’s reaction to it as told by Matthew, are used as test cases.
