Description

Author Sherman E. Johnson is careful to note in his preface to this book that he has not written a “life of Jesus”. Rather, this work is a study of Jesus in the light of his geographical, cultural, and religious background. He aims to make some contribution toward answering the questions of how hostility arose against Jesus, and why Christianity separated so quickly from Judaism. This is an accessible and seminal work that brings together many sociological, theological, historical, and archaeological (including Qumran) threads to paint a clearer picture of Jesus, his times, and the many dynamics of his homeland.
