About this book
In The Historical Jesus of the Gospels, Craig S. Keener argues that the Gospels are the earliest substantive sources for historical Jesus research, and that, interpreted in their early Jewish setting, their picture of Jesus is more coherent and plausible than the competing theories of many modern scholars. Eerdmans published this paperback reprint in 2012; it runs 869 pages.
Keener explores the material in the Synoptic Gospels and argues that many works on the historical Jesus emphasize just one aspect of the Jesus tradition against others. He draws on a broad range of evidence from the early Jesus traditions and early Judaism to reconstruct a fuller portrait of the Jesus who lived in history.
