Item description for Investigating Jesus: An Historian's Quest by John Dickson...
Overview Addresses the hot issue of the historical basis for Christianity In Investigating Jesus historian and television veteran John Dickson explores the historical basis for Christianity in an engaging, accessible style. Drawing on what we know about the Gospels, ancient pagan and Jewish writings, and near contemporary Christian sources, he presents the case for the historical reliability of the New Testament and the depiction of Jesus in the Gospels. Full-color photographs, maps, and twenty boxes with further details on relevant topics provide a fascinating and accessible introduction to the life of Christ and His world.
Publishers Description An in-depth investigation into the history of Jesus, from his early beginnings to how he was viewed in the Enlightenment, the 20th Century, and beyond In this lovely full-color book, the question of how much anyone can really know about Jesus of Nazareth is addressed. From the Gospels to the word of modern-day theologians to historical record, all accounts are examined in minute detail in attempt to uncover the truth. By reviewing ancient evidence, interviewing leading experts, and setting out a robust historical method, the reliability or unreliability of different sources, interpretations, and arguments is clearly established. Christianity prides itself on being a historical religion. Here this pride is subjected to a very close scrutiny and it is shown both how vital this is and yet how different Jesus was from the way he is so often portrayed today. |
