LOC classification:
  • BT301.2 .S2
Contents:
The Jesus of history and the Christ of faith -- Jewish life in Roman Palestine -- Judgment day and John's call to repentance -- The crisis hour of God's coming -- The father and his sons -- The responsible life before God -- The curative power of the new age -- Discipleship and the kingdom -- Controversies and a crisis -- Journey to Jerusalem -- The face of death -- The Easter gospel.
Summary: No one will ever produce the single definitive study of Jesus of Nazareth, nor of any other decisive figure in human history. It is folly to try. Still it is necessary from time to time to gather the results of specialized studies in a fresh attempt at an interpretative presentation. This is just such a bold effort. It is designed principally for use in courses on the New Testament on the college level. The reading suggestions and documentation appearing in the notes are intended for the guidance of advanced students on the seminary level. Beyond that, I hope that the book will be of some interest to laymen and pastors. - Preface.
