Book Description
  Publication Date: October 16,
2006
  The Historical Jesus in Context is a landmark collection that places the gospel narratives in their
full literary, social, and archaeological context. More than twenty-five internationally recognized experts offer new
translations and descriptions of a broad range of texts that shed new light on the Jesus of history, including pagan
prayers and private inscriptions, miracle tales and martyrdoms, parables and fables, divorce decrees and imperial
propaganda.
  The translated materials--from Christian, Coptic, and Jewish as well as Greek, Roman, and Egyptian
texts--extend beyond single phrases to encompass the full context, thus allowing readers to locate Jesus in a broader
cultural setting than is usually made available. This book demonstrates that only by knowing the world in which Jesus
lived and taught can we fully understand him, his message, and the spread of the Gospel.
  Gathering in one place
material that was previously available only in disparate sources, this formidable book provides innovative insight into
matters no less grand than first-century Jewish and Gentile life, the composition of the Gospels, and Jesus himself.
  
  Reviews
  "The essays illuminate the social, religious, and
cultural background of Jesus and the Gospels in striking ways. The book has gathered together the work of leading
scholars without regard for any party line."--Paul Cavill, Church Times
  
  "A very useful introduction to the historical background of Jesus and the Gospels...A valuable resource for
historical Jesus studies."--Michael Bird, Journal for the Study of the New Testament
  
  "It is a major research tool and an education in its own right. Highly recommended."--Robert M. Price, Religious Studies Review
  
  "In general, this is a volume
especially useful as a resource for teaching about Jesus in his historical context."--Bruce
Longenecker, Theological Book Review
  
  "This collection of essays is a very useful introduction
to the historical background of Jesus and the Gospels. The translation of a number of primary texts in one volume makes
it a valuable resource for historical Jesus studies."--Michael Bird, Journal for the Study of
the New Testament
  
  "The heart of the matter is in the ancient texts themselves--let the reader
understand! For this reason, the student of Christian origins and/or the historical Jesus will find this book eminently
worthwhile. There is, as far as I know, no other book on the market that brings the primary textual backgrounds on Jesus
together in one place."--Nicholas Perrin, Journal of the Evangelical Theological
Society
  
  "An excellent addition to any library--whether scholarly, pastoral, or
devotional--this is an illuminating volume with easy to follow, concise essays that deal with a variety of subjects or
aspects of the world in which Jesus lived and the gospels written. Excellent for scholars, students, those charge with
pastoral responsibilities or the interested reading public, The Historical Jesus in Context provides background and
insights that illumine the gospel record in delightfully unexpected ways."--Stephen Morris,
European Legacy
  
  From the Inside Flap
  "An
impressive volume. Levine, Allison, and Crossan have assembled a group of experts who, by generously citing and
carefully analyzing primary sources, contextualize Jesus in the Jewish and wider Greco-Roman world of his time. The
essays cast a wide net and collect a rich assortment of information for students of the historical Jesus and the
Gospels."--James C. Vanderkam, University of Notre Dame, author of The Dead Sea
Scrolls
  
  "Textbooks are increasingly difficult to find for an introductory class on Jesus of
Nazareth. The Historical Jesus in Context provides an anthology of important primary texts that are set in context so
that they illuminate what Jesus and his world was like. The selections are judicious, the authors prominent, and the
potential for students illuminating."--Scot McKnight, author of The Jesus Creed
  
  "This is a source book to help all obtain their own conclusions, by emphasizing that Jesus' own message must
be grounded in the original historical context. The task is not only imperative but also demanded morally. No other book
does this so well. It is amazingly well done and well written."--James Charlesworth,
Princeton Theological Seminary
  
  "This is a great collection and would certainly be of interest
to scholars and laypersons interested in the quest for the historical Jesus. The selection of scholars is top notch, and
the notes and commentary for each source are strong."--Kathleen Corley, University of
Wisconsin, Oshkosh
