Even mature Christians have trouble defending the person and divinity of Christ. The Jesus Legend builds a convincing interdisciplinary case for the unique and plausible position of Jesus in human history. He was real and his presence on the planet has been well-documented.The authors of the New Testament didn't plant evidence, though each writer did tell the truth from a unique perspective. This book carefully investigates the Gospel portraits of Jesus--particularly the Synoptic Gospels--assessing what is reliable history and fictional legend. The authors contend that a cumulative case for the general reliability of the Synoptic Gospels can be made and boldly challenge those who question the veracity of the Jesus found there.… (plus d'informations)

The Jesus Legend considers the arguments of how accurate the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) are using primarily high-criticisim with some use of low-criticisim. It also engages arguments from the moderns, post-moderns and naturalists concerning the reliability of the ancient texts in general. In addition, the text asks the reader to recognize that first century societies were oral-based. In addition, early Christianity developed in a Jewish Torah-centered monotheistic mind set. Overall I would recommend this text to anyone who is interested in how early Christian traditions and texts developed. (

The Jesus Legend is a truly outstanding book. It is well argued, well written, and well documented. The authors not only succeed in thoroughly debunking the theories viewing Jesus in terms of legend, but they also issue such serious blows to the formcritical and redaction-critical theories that it will be hard to take seriously the work of modern critics who do not interact with the material in this book.
