This is a readable introduction to "the historical Jesus"; his life, his world, his sayings and doings, accounts of his death and resurrection, and his follower's efforts to understand him. It brings together two of the most fruitful models for understanding Jesus and his mission: the "moral sage" and Jesus the "eschatalogical prophet." Readers familiar with Jesus may well find him becoming a stranger to them through the pages, and to those to whom Jesus is a stranger may discover a growing familiarity with him.

Michael J. McClymond has written Encounters with God:An Approach to the Theology of Johnathan Edwards and coeditor of The Rivers of Paradise: Moses, Buddha,Confucius, Jesus, and Muhammad as Religious Founders.
