Inhaltsangabe

Explore how scholarship and church tradition shape our picture of Jesus—and what a careful reader can learn from both.

This nonfiction work offers a rigorous critical account of the gospel narratives and how they came to be understood over time. It weighs historical questions, textual evidence, and interpretive aims without losing sight of faith, practice, or belief.

The book surveys key episodes in the gospel accounts, including debates over authenticity and the development of tradition. It traces how different evangelists present events, and how later readers have connected or separated these narratives from the figures they describe.

• See how scholars test the reliability of passages and how tradition argues for their meaning
• Understand debates around figures like Mary, Martha, and the woman who animates a crucial scene
• Learn how critical inquiry and church faith interact in shaping doctrine and teaching
• Grasp the common ground and tensions between historical inquiry and religious belief

Ideal for readers of religious history, theology, and philosophy of religion who want to understand the dialogue between critical scholarship and faith.
