The historicity of Jesus is now widely accepted and hardly questioned by most scholars. But this assumption disarms biblical texts of much of their power by privileging an historical interpretation which effectively sweeps aside much theological speculation and allusion.

Is This Not the Carpenter? presents a very valuable corrective: a literary rereading of the New Testament. Read more
