Overall, the emphasis is upon seeing Jesus as part of the Jewish teaching and belief of his times. Thus, for example, Jesus is not seen by Vermes to teach anything contradictory to the law. In fact, according to Vermes, he is a great upholder of its purpose and intent.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Geza Vermes</note> <subject> <topic>Jesus Christ Teachings</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Jesus Christ -- Jewish interpretations</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Christology</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">232</classification> <classification authority="ddc">V523-G40</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780800627973</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14809/033402293201-sy200-sclzzzzzzz.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14809/033402293201-sy200-sclzzzzzzz.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071416.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
