There have been many of those. A miracle-worker? A radical revolutionary? A wise teacher? There have been many of these, too. In his latest book, renowned Scripture scholar Gerhard Lohfink asks, What is unique about Jesus of Nazareth, and what did he really want?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLohfink engages the perceptions of the first witnesses of his life and ministry and those who handed on their testimony. His approach is altogether historical and critical, but he agrees with Karl Barth's statement that \"historical criticism has to be more critical.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLohfink takes seriously the fact that Jesus was a Jew and lived entirely in and out of Israel's faith experiences but at the same time brought those experiences to their goal and fulfillment. The result is a convincing and profound picture of Jesus.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liturgical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780814680582\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 408\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.30w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristian Century\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/12\/2012 pg. 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristian Century\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/23\/2013 pg. 36\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Gerhard Lohfink","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44033732083893,"sku":"9780814680582","price":42.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_c7d356a8-2a44-44b6-b7e1-911a6e3a512b.jpg?v=1713885401","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/jesus-of-nazareth-what-he-wanted-who-he-was-9780814680582","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
