AB In this paper I will attempt to describe the Jesus-image of Johann Christian Edelmann (1698–1767), primarily as he drew it in his Abgenöthigtes Jedoch Andern nicht wieder aufgenöthigtes Glaubens-Bekentniss, published at Neuwied in 1746. This description should also help to show Edelmann's place in the history of eighteenth-century German writings on the life of Jesus, and to demonstrate how English Deistic and Spinozistic ideas on Jesus were received in Germany during this period.
