| Summary: | In the preface, McDonald explains that the purpose of this book is "an attempt to offer an introduction to nonspecialist readers who are not familiar with what is going on in life of Jesus biblical research today... and to do this within the context of faith (emphasis original)." For McDonald, the expression "nonspecialist readers" includes "students, pastors, and educated laypersons in churches." The introduction raises questions about not only the place of faith in historical Jesus studies, but also the relevance of Jesus studies for Christian faith. |
