The first part of this book attempts to situate Jesus in his
historical and cultural context through comparisons with the
prayers, parables, prophecies and miracles attributed to various
Jewish figures of Palestine who were Jesus's near contemporaries.
It is concluded that Jesus's teachings and activities do not
represent a radical break with the piety and restorative hopes of
many of his contemporaries. This conclusion conflicts with some of
the recent Jesus research, especially emanating from the Jesus
Seminar, which tends to view Jesus as a Stoic or a Cynic
philosopher with little interest in the restoration of Israel and
the fulfilment of prophecy. The second part of the text explores
the aims of Jesus and the factors that led to Jesus's death.
