The earliest perceptions of Jesus in context : essays in honor of John Nolland on his 70th birthday

John Nolland, Aaron W. White (Editor), Craig A. Evans (Editor), David Wenham (Editor)
This volume contributes to the study of the identity of Jesus, focusing on how he was originally perceived both by his contemporaries and in the earliest Christian writings. The essays include studies of methodology, archaeology, background, individual gospel perspectives, gospel relationships, intertextuality in the gospels, the earliest reception of the Jesus tradition in the post-Easter writings of the New Testament, and the missiological and pedagogical implications of Jesus' teaching. John Nolland is the reason for this volume, and his important writings on the gospels are its backdrop. -- ‡c From back cover
