ISBN: 0944344941 ISBN-13: 9780944344941 Publisher: Polebridge Press OUR PRICE: $19.00 Product Type: Paperback Published: December 2002 Annotation: Can the authentic words and deeds of Jesus identified by the Jesus Seminar furnish a sufficient basis for a credible profile of the Jesus of history? That is the challenge faced by the contributors to this volume. Their efforts have resulted in a unique collection of studied impressions of Jesus. Here readers will see not Jesus the icon of myth and creed, but a provocative young man of first-century Palestine whose vision and determination to live the vision gave birth to a new form of faith and changed the course of history. |
