The New Testament has had a profound impact on Western society. But
what do we actually know about its evolution? In what context did
the texts originate? Who was Jesus, and how did he become the 'Son
of God'? Were the four evangelists reliable witnesses? Why are
there so many inconsistencies and contradictions in the New
Testament? Unbelievable: The Gospel Texts in Narrative Tradition
and Historical Context. explores the traditions and
historical reality behind the New Testament, shedding a whole new
light on the biblical stories. This book is aimed at interested
readers who want to learn how the New Testament came into being,
and how it has moulded our societies. Although it is based on sound
scholarly research, Unbelievable seeks primarily to appeal to
a broad audience. Its style and clear language enable the reader to
gain insight into the historical and literary contexts from which
these texts emerged, and how they have shaped all Western cultures.
