Jesus in Context

Produktbeschreibung

We know that Jesus changed the world, but what do we know about him? This accessible and uniquely comprehensive introduction examines the evidence, the sources and different scholars' views. It argues that we know a surprising amount, and offers a coherent and well-informed picture of Jesus in his context.
