Book Reviews of From Jesus to Christ: The Origins of the New Testament Images of Christ

Book Review: HIstorical Jesus not Biblical Jesus...
Summary: 3 Stars

Just a quick note. This book is a view of the historical Jesus. This is not a biblically supported work. If you are a devote believer in the word of Christ, this book may not be for you. It is NOT designed to strengthen an individual's faith. However, it is written as a scholarly work to better understand who Jesus was in actuality. It is well written and historically supported. Do not expect to find support from biblical tales. In spite of this, for anyone who desires an historian's point of view of Jesus and who he was and what he did, it is an interesting read.

Summary of From Jesus to Christ: The Origins of the New Testament Images of Christ

How did Jesus of Nazareth become the Christ of the Christian tradition? And why did the early Christian communities develop different theological images of Jesus? In this exciting new book, Paula Fredriksen answers this question by placing the various canonical images of Jesus within their historical context-the Hellenistic and Judaic cultures from which the Christian communities grew. Carefully examining the New Testament texts, she provides fascinating insights into such issues as the social and religious problems facing early Christian communities, the content of Jesus' ministry, and the circumstances of his crucifixion.
