CROSS OF JESUS
JACOB'S LADER
JUDEO-CHRISTIAN THEOLOGY
THE WOOD OF THE LADDER/CROSS - Opis:
- In Judeo-Christian theology, as in Hellenistic Christianity, the cross of Jesus was a fundamental problem. Until the time of Constantine in the Imperial community it was a sign of disgrace. For Christians the cross was a sign of salvation. The theological problem was caused by the inclusion of the cross as a positive symbol in a general and religious sense. In Judeo-Christian theology a method of typology was used which was known also in Jewish exegesis. The cross as a symbol of salvation was predicted among others by 'Jacob's ladder' (cf. Genesis 28,12). Christians understood it as a cosmic cross on which Logos (the Son of God) had descended to earth, and as a path to salvation for people ascending to heaven. From 'Jacob's ladder' only certain details were chosen for the exegesis: 'the wood of the ladder/cross', the motif of descent and ascent. In this way the typology of the 'ladder of the cross' allowed the meaning of the cross as a symbol of the shame of Jesus' death sentence to win out.
