Johannes Pedersen (theologian)

Johannes Pedersen (theologian)

Johannes Pedersen (1883-1977) was a noted theologian and linguist.

Pedersen believed that "objective thought, that is to say, inactive, disinterested thought" does not exist in most instances. Pederson was committed to the assumption that the full social context is necessary to understanding written texts.

Pedersen pointed out that in Genesis a soul is a person, not some invisible something inside a person. Consistently, passage after passage in Genesis, this is shown to be the case.
