A clear, thoughtful examination of Jesus as problem, teacher, personality, and force across four lectures.
This edition surveys how Jesus is portrayed as a complete man within his Jewish context, and how his personality shapes his preaching, memory, and influence. It discusses the challenges of describing a key historical figure while balancing faith and critical insight, and it frames Jesus’ teaching as a threefold center — expectation, law, and wisdom — all linked through his personality.
- Learn how memory of Jesus is treated as a living, dynamic influence in religious life
- See how the author approaches Jesus as a unified personality, not split into two natures
- Explore the relationship between Jesus’ actions, words, and the effect they have on followers
- Understand the critical questions scholars raise about sources and interpretation
Ideal for readers of theology, religious history, and philosophy of religion who seek a scholarly yet accessible portrait of Jesus’ personality and impact.
