The project Sacralization and Desacralization in and of New Testament Texts investigates characteristics of New Testament texts that particularly claim and/or relativize functions of securing authority, identity formation and normativity. Within the joint research program of the research group FOR 2828 De/Sacralization of Texts, such functions or their relativization are described as dynamic processes of sacralization and desacralization. The sacralization of New Testament texts is thus not only examined in terms of their canonization process, but already in the context of their own emergence and formation. Have the authors of the New Testament writings already understood these texts as at least religiously elevated texts and written them as such? Were the individual writings of what we call the New Testament perceived by their first addressees or recipients as religiously emphasized texts? From a perspective of practice-theory, the use of the writings will therefore be a central issue.It is assumed that the texts of the New Testament already show a potential for sacralization through their content; by telling the Jesus Christ story as an outstanding event in the history of God with Israel (Mt 1) or with humanity in general (Lk 3). In addition to sovereign titles and a comprehensive narrative tradition, the stories of Jesus' death and resurrection and their theological interpretation contribute significantly to the religious emphasis of the Jesus Christ story. Further motifs are ethical passages that are linked to high normative demands, as well as questions of the authorship of the New Testament writings, which are provided with claims to authority, for example with regard to their relationship to God. At the same time, it can be observed that the New Testament texts, in the phase of their formation through annotation with the Old Testament texts, which in turn were perceived as religiously highlighted, are developing into a new corpus of texts which, as a whole, have a special religious significance for the developing Christian tradition. Using selected New Testament texts as examples, the project contributes significantly to questions of the formation, reception and pragmatization of sacred texts. In two partial studies, the aforementioned analytical insights will be tested on texts from the Gospel of Matthew and the letters of Paul, and the characteristics of de-/sacralization will be related to each other. In this way, and in discussion with the other participants in the research group, it is expected that the underlying concepts of De/Sacralization of the New Testament texts can be perceived.

新约文本中的神圣化和非神圣化项目调查了新约文本的特征，这些特征特别声称和/或相对化了确保权威、身份形成和规范性的功能。在2828文本去神化课题组的联合研究项目中，这些功能或它们的相对化被描述为神化和去神化的动态过程。因此，新约文本的神圣化不仅是从它们的封圣过程来考察的，而且已经在它们自身出现和形成的背景下进行了审查。新约圣经的作者是否已经将这些经文理解为至少是宗教崇高的经文，并将其写成这样？我们所称的《新约》的个别著作，在最初的收信人或收信人看来，是宗教强调的经文吗？因此，从实践理论的角度来看，这些著作的使用将是一个中心问题。我们假设，新约的经文已经通过其内容显示了神圣化的潜力；通过讲述耶稣基督的故事，将其作为上帝与以色列历史上的一个杰出事件(Mt 1)或与整个人类的历史(LK3)。除了主权头衔和全面的叙事传统外，耶稣死亡和复活的故事及其神学解释对耶稣基督故事的宗教强调做出了重大贡献。进一步的主题是与高规范要求相联系的伦理段落，以及新约著作的作者问题，这些著作被提供了对权威的主张，例如关于它们与上帝的关系。同时，可以观察到，新约文本，在它们通过与旧约文本注释而形成的阶段，反过来被认为是宗教强调的，正在发展成为一个新的文本语料库，作为一个整体，对发展中的基督教传统具有特殊的宗教意义。该项目以选定的《新约》经文为例，对神圣经文的形成、接受和实用化问题作出了重大贡献。在两个部分研究中，上述分析见解将在马太福音和保罗书信中得到检验，去神化/神圣化的特征将相互关联。通过这种方式，并在与研究小组的其他参与者的讨论中，预期可以理解新约文本的非神圣化的基本概念。
