Book description
Steve Moyise offers an illuminating yet accessible guide to the
various ways that Jesus employed Scripture, both in his teaching and
in his understanding of his ministry. After analysing the scriptural
quotations and allusions in the four canonical Gospels, Moyise
examines the views of a range of key scholars (Borg, Crossan, Dunn,
France, Kimball, Vermes and Wright), and shows how their differing
reconstructions of Jesus' use of Scripture inform their understanding
of his historical impact and significance.
