He was real and his presence on the planet has been well-documented.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe authors of the New Testament didn't plant evidence, though each writer did tell the truth from a unique perspective. This book carefully investigates the Gospel portraits of Jesus--particularly the Synoptic Gospels--assessing what is reliable history and fictional legend. The authors contend that a cumulative case for the general reliability of the Synoptic Gospels can be made and boldly challenge those who question the veracity of the Jesus found there.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Baker Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780801031144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.26w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Christianity Today Book Award - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/15\/2008 pg. 107\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2008 pg. 1175\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Paul Rhodes Eddy, Gregory A.
