Who was the apostle Paul? That question has provided grist for the
scholarly mill for millennia. This fifth volume of the Jesus
Seminar Guides opens with summaries of the traditional
understanding of Paul that examine its inconsistencies and
contradictions and reveal its bankruptcy. The authors then move
beyond that traditional framework provided by Augustine and Luther
to more radical approaches as they struggle with questions such as:
who was the historical Paul, how is Paul's message related to
Jesus', what problem was Paul trying to solve, and what was his
concept of God?
Often referred to by the press and critics alike as a single voice,
the Jesus Seminar ?is not, in fact, monolithic," writes Bernard
Brandon Scott. "Biblical scholars are notoriously independent and
contrary." The scholars of the Jesus Seminar are no different. In
Jesus Reconsidered, readers will hear the diverse voices of
pioneering scholars, some of whom put their reputations and careers
on the line when, in 1985, they chose to go public with scholarship
that had been common knowledge in scholarly circles for more than a
hundred years. Witty, timely and full of provocative issues,
articles by Robert Funk, Marcus Borg, Roy Hoover and others invite
readers to step inside scholarly debates and discussions previously
obscured by jargon and obfuscation. Jesus Reconsidered is the first
in a series titled Jesus Seminar Guides. Over the next few years,
the series will gather the best writings of Westar Fellows from the
pages of its membership magazine, The Fourth R, its academic
journal Forum, and occasionally from previously unpublished
material. Arranged topically, the Guides will focus on topics such
as the the historical Jesus, parables, Easter, and canon and
inspiration that have formed the core of the Seminar's work for
more than twenty years. Jesus Reconsidered begins with the opening
remarks of Jesus Seminar Founder Robert Funk at its first meeting
in March 1985. There he laid the groundwork upon which the Seminar
would be built. Robert Funk concludes his remarks by saying, "Our
stories are eroding under the acids of historical criticism. We
must retell our stories. And there is one epic story that has Jesus
in it." For those curious about the quest and the questions that
drive theJesus Seminar, this book is a must read.
In this book the author sets his interpretation of the key parables
of Jesus in the context of other things Jesus said and did. The
result is a startling and provocative picture of the historical
figure and the challenge he presents to contemporary life.
