Following his critically acclaimed book Jesus the Temple, Nicholas
Perrin offers a fresh paradigm for understanding the historical
Jesus. Perrin challenges the "standard reading" of classic texts
(including the parable of the sower, the Beatitudes, and the Lord's
Prayer) to argue that the historical Jesus primarily identified
himself not as sage or prophet but as Israel's eschatological high
priest. Perrin's insightful theological contribution synthesizes
the best in traditional/conservative and liberal reconstructions of
Jesus's life and teaching. He identifies Jesus's priesthood as a
mediating understanding that sheds crucial light on the kingdom of
God.
