Geza Vermes is a household name within the study of the historical
Jesus, and his work is associated with a significant change within
mainstream Jesus research, typically labelled 'the third quest'.
Since the publication of Jesus the Jew in 1973, many notable Jesus
scholars have interacted with Vermes's ideas and suggestions, yet
their assessments have so far remained brief and ambiguous. Hilde
Brekke Moller explores the true impact of Vermes's Jesus research
on the perceived change within Jesus research in the 1980s, and
also within third quest Jesus research, by examining Vermes's work
and the reception of his work by numerous Jesus scholars. Moller
looks in particular depth at the Jewishness of Jesus, the
Son-of-Man problem, and Vermes's suggestion that Jesus was a Hasid,
all being aspects of Vermes's work which have attracted the most
scholarly attention. Moller's research-historical approach focuses
not only on the leading scholars of the field such as E.P. Sanders,
J.D. Crossan, J.P. Meier and C.A. Evans, but also sheds light on
underplayed aspects of previous research, and responds to the state
of affairs for recent research by challenging the rhetoric of
current historical Jesus scholarship.
