One of Jesus' most important endeavors during His short ministry
involved the preparation of His twelve disciples for the work they
would need to accomplish. The importance of studying Jesus'
methodologies cannot be overstated. While there is much we can
learn from His words and deeds, it is His work in training the
disciples that facilitated the promotion and growth of the Kingdom
in the first century. If we would become His disciples, we must sit
at His feet and be trained by Him as He trained the twelve. "The
Training of the Twelve" was written in the face of growing doubt
about the legitimacy of the Gospels as authentic witnesses to the
life and work of Jesus. In "The Training of the Twelve," Bruce
seeks to prove that the portrayal of Jesus and His disciples is
authentic, and therefore their message is believable as revealed in
the New Testament. Whereas the nineteenth century liberal scholars
were saying that the disciples invented the story of Jesus, "The
Training of the Twelve" provides sufficient proof that it is Jesus
who transforms the disciples into the Apostles, and that their
testimony is true. This compelling defense of the portrayal of
Jesus and His disciples in the Gospel accounts is, if anything,
even more necessary now than it was when it was first written.
Scholars today continue to perpetuate many of the claims of the
nineteenth century liberal scholars and have even gone beyond them
in denying the legitimacy of the Gospel accounts of the life of
Jesus of Nazareth. In a world that believes in a distinction
between the 'historical Jesus' and the 'Jesus of faith, ' "The
Training of the Twelve" demonstrates that the two are really one
and the same.
