The Quest for the Historical Jesus
This course acquaints the student with the exegetical and historical
problems encountered in the quest for the historical Jesus; reviews the
history of scholarship to the present to determine presuppositions, methods,
and results; examines the range of options currently available and the
exegetical strategies used to support these options; encourages the student
to take up an option and defend it. Emphasis in the course is in
seeing Jesus as first-century Jew and understanding him within the world
of first-century Palestinian Judaism.
