For the first time classic readings on Jesus from outside of
Christianity have been brought together in one volume. Jesus Beyond
Christianity: The Classic Texts features significant passages on
Jesus from Judaism, Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism. The fifty-six
selections span two millennia of thought, including translated
extracts from the Talmud and the Qur'an, and writings by Mahatma
Gandhi and the 14th Dalai Lama.
The volume features fresh translations of important texts,
'Key-Issues' introductions, questions for discussion and guides for
further reading. Importantly, each set of readings ends with an
entirely fresh reflection from a leading scholar in the field.
Every care has been taken to present these often controversial
passages in a manner consistent with the aims of their authors;
accompanying notes directly address challenging issues.
This unique collection of readings promises to become an essential
resource in the study of the world's religions, providing rich
guidance for anyone seeking to understand the central convergences
and debates between religious traditions.
