Theological Brief #7: “Jesus is Black:” Cone on the Incarnation
In the sixth chapter of God of the Oppressed, “Who is Jesus Christ For Us Today,” James Cone develops an innovative but often misunderstood interpretation of the Incarnation, namely, that “Jesus is Black.” He bases this claim on a subtle threefold analysis of “who Jesus was” historically, “who Jesus is” in the present experience of the black people, and “who Jesus will be” as “the Coming Lord,” the eschatological symbol of hope and freedom.
In this theological brief, explain Cone’s claim that “Jesus is black” and his threefold theological argument for this claim. Remember your job is NOT to summarize everything here, but instead to identify and explore the critical elements of his argument. Be sure to explain in your brief what Cone means by the statement that Jesus blackness is literal and symbolic” (125).
