| Summary: | This substantial and well-documented monograph begins with three introductory chapters: the first is a suggestive and informative statement of the author's view of historiography and his methods, and the following two focus on recent scholarship with regard to Jesus’ view of his death as well as on issues that have a bearing on that question. What is then more puzzling is the repeated claim that ‘modern Jesus scholarship’ has neglected that question (e.g. p. 155), when McKnight has cited so many who have handled it. It may be that he merely means that the many books on Jesus’ life and ministry in general have neglected it, in contrast to the separate articles and monographs concerned specifically with this theme. |
