About This Book

A series of reflective lectures investigates whether the gospel portraits represent a real historical person and then analyzes that figure’s moral character, methods, and claims. Rejecting appeals to inspiration or miracles as necessary proofs, the writer examines authorship questions, myth theories, and the Jewish cultural setting, argues for the uniqueness and ethical perfection of the portrayed figure, surveys his teaching style and grand purposes, and considers his relationship to sin, religious institutions, and humanity. The final chapters treat the universal reach of his appeal and the grounds for affirming his spiritual significance.
