Dunn, James D. G. 1939-2020

Jesus Remembered Christianity in the Making vol.1 James D. G. Dunn - U.S.A William B. Eerdmans Publishing 2003 - 1019tr. Hardcover, illustrationsJesus - Christianity in the making .

Focusing on Jesus, this first volume has several distinct features. It garners the lessons to be learned from the ""quest for the historical Jesus"" and meets the hermeneutical challenges to a historical and theological assessment of the Jesus tradition. It provides a fresh perspective both on the impact made by Jesus and on the traditions about Jesus as oral tradition -- hence the title ""Jesus Remembered."" And it offers a fresh analysis of the details of that tradition, emphasizing its characteristic (rather than dissimilar) features. Noteworthy too are Dunn's treatments of the source question (particularly Q and the noncanonical Gospels) and of Jesus the Jew in his Galilean context.
