Die Erzähler der Sagen und Märchen aus der Bibel gehen deftig und handfest ans Werk, und ihre Gestalten mögen riesige Umrisse zeigen, sie bleiben menschlich. Keinen dieser vielen Erzähler kennen wir mit Namen. Es gibt keinen Homer, keinen Vergil, keinen Wolfram, Rabelais, Tolstoi oder Faulkner, nur eine lange Reihe von Schreibern, deren Geschichten uns aber seit Ewigkeiten begleiten und großen Einfluss genommen haben.

Hölderlin war ein leidenschaftlicher Wanderer, seine innige Liebe zur Natur hatte sicherlich einen großen Einfluss auf sein Denken. Also tun wir es ihm gleich: Wir wandern und lauschen gleichzeitig den Geschichten aus seinem Leben, seinen Gedichten, den Briefen seiner WeggefährtInnen, seiner Mutter, seiner Geliebten. Dies soll keine literaturwissenschaftliche Lehrstunde sein, sondern eine emotionale Annäherung an die vielschichtige Gedankenwelt eines Dichtergenies, welches es nie schaffte, im "profanen Alltagsleben" Fuß zu fassen.

Based on the holy bible and representing a new and innovative genre of bible literature, this scripturally-based yet fictionally-portrayed book is about 26 people, written from the perspective of those who were directly or indirectly involved with Jesus the Christ. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John were spectators who participated in the miraculous events associated with Jesus' life. Their stories, completed in the first century, are eyewitness accounts of Jesus interacting with, ministering to, and helping people.

Das biblische Gleichnis vom verlorenen Sohn (Lukas 15, 11-32) ist einer der populärsten Texte des Neuen Testaments. In neueren Übersetzungen wird es auch als "Gleichnis von den beiden Söhnen" bzw. "Von der Liebe des Vaters" bezeichnet. So weit die Bibel. Ihr geht es vor allem um Gott als den liebenden Vater. Der in die Welt gezogene und reumütig zurückgekehrte Sohn ist halt ein Sünder, der sich zu schämen hat. Was aber war wohl eigentlich seine Motivation, das Vaterhaus zu verlassen? Und was mag die Mutter gedacht, empfunden haben, von der im Gleichnis gar keine Rede ist?

Er wurde vom Herrn angewiesen, eine Arche zu bauen, in der er, seine Familie und eine große Anzahl von Vögeln und von Landtieren hineinbringen sollte, damit sie nicht von der Flut ertränkt würden. Gottes Entscheidung, eine Sintflut über die Erde zu bringen, wurde durch die Realität des Bösen, das er von den Menschen ausgeübt sah, tief beeinflusst. Das Lied von Chey, "The Book of Life" am Ende der Predigt gibt den Zuhörern die Möglichkeit, über die Predigt nachzudenken.
