This work offers the student of biblical studies an introduction to the interpretative study of Jesus. It introduces students to the writings on Jesus and the main strands of critical interpretation. It studies the portrayal of Jesus in the four gospels with the tools of historical analysis, but with the understanding that it is the nature of the gospels which prevents history being the only concern.
