Jesus and the Logic of History (New Studies in Biblical Theology, Volume 3)
Publisher's Description
At the heart of the Christian faith stands a man, Jesus of Nazareth.
Few people seriously question whether Jesus existed in history. But many, influenced by the more skeptical scholars, doubt that the Christ of orthodox Christianity is the same as the Jesus of history.
In this important book, historian Paul W. Barnett lays these doubts to rest. He uncovers the methodological weaknesses present in some forms of critical scholarship, demonstrating a failure to account for important early evidence about Jesus.
Once the evidence is properly marshalled, a picture of Jesus emerges that fits well with orthodox belief in him.
Paul W. Barnett (Ph.D., London University) was, until his retirement, Anglican bishop of North Sydney, Australia. He remains a visiting fellow in ancient history at Macquarie University (Sydney, Australia) and research professor at Regent College (Vancouver, British Columbia). He has written several books.
Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
"Barnett offers important contributions to the manner in which we may responsibly work as both historians and theologians to understand not only the nascent Christian church, but also the historical Jesus whom they confessed . . . [His] work deserves wide dissemination."
D. A. Carson
research professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School (Deerfield, Illinois)
