This is an introduction to the New Testament portrayals of Jesus of
Nazareth. Analysis of editorial emphases by each author gives
access to the ways Jesus is characterized. This is an introductory
guide to the ways Jesus is depicted in the New Testament. Both
college students and the general reader will find here a variety of
New Testament understandings of Jesus that are rooted in critical
reading of the four Gospels and Pauline letters. Underlining these
particular portrayals is the historical Jesus, a prophet mighty in
word and deed who challenged the people running the Temple state.
This new addition gives attention to his historical context and
adds to a realistic understanding of this most studied book and
person. This work presumes neither religious faith nor lack of
faith; its aim is to inform and to give the readers portraits as
synthetic balance to the vital work of analysis. Ideally, this book
should be read with a copy of the New Testament at hand to answer
questions and to test the assertions of reader and author.
