Friedrich-Wilhelm Marquardt
Friedrich-Wilhelm Marquardt (born December 2, 1928 in Eberswalde ; † May 25, 2002 in Berlin ) was a Protestant pastor, student pastor and professor of systematic theology at the Free University of Berlin .
Life
After his military service in Poland and Northern Germany , Marquardt began studying Protestant theology, first in Marburg , then in Berlin (1947–1951). After the first theological exam, further studies took place with Karl Barth in Basel ; then a vicariate in Lindau on Lake Constance . He did not complete a doctoral degree with Helmut Gollwitzer in Bonn , instead he took on pastoral positions in Euskirchen and Langenfeld-Immigrath and was then student pastor in Berlin from May 1957 . Since 1961 he worked in the Christian Peace Conference (CFK) . In 1963 he became an assistant at Gollwitzer in Berlin. At this time he took up another doctoral degree, now with the topic: Israel with Karl Barth. He received his doctorate in 1967 with the dissertation The Discovery of Judaism for Christian Theology: Israel in the Thinking of Karl Barth , for which he received the Buber-Rosenzweig Medal of the Societies for Christian-Jewish Cooperation in 1968 .
Marquardt's habilitation , originally at the Church University of Berlin , turned into a political and scientific scandal: his habilitation thesis on Karl Barth as a socialist was rejected by a narrow majority, whereupon Gollwitzer resigned from his teaching position at the Church University in protest. Marquardt then completed his habilitation at the Free University of Berlin , where he became professor of systematic theology at the Institute for Protestant Theology , where he was Gollwitzer's successor. His habilitation thesis was published in 1972 under the title Theology and Socialism: The Example of Karl Barth .
In 1959, Marquardt made his first trip to Israel with students. Since the 1970s, Marquardt has become increasingly known as a pointed voice in the Judeo-Christian dialogue. His short and provocative study The Jews in Romans , published in 1974, became a milestone in the discussion. In 1990 he demonstrated at a lecture at the Catholic Paulus Academy in Zurich that the Gospel of John was intended in Hebrew, which must have theological and ecclesiastical consequences. Marquardt was a pioneer in Judeo-Christian dialogue and showed Hebrew thinking in the New Testament.
