Gospel echoes of Psalm 8 and the ongoing Christological challenge -- Son of God and Christian origins -- History, eschatology, and new creation in the fourth Gospel: early Christian perspectives on God's action in Jesus, with special reference to the prologue of John -- Son of Man and new creation: the biblical roots of Trinitarian theology.
Interpreting Jesus brings together N. T. Wright's most important articles on Jesus and the Gospels over the last three decades. Many of the included studies have never been published or only available in hard-to-find larger volumes and journals. Here is a rich feast for all serious students of the Bible. Each essay will amply reward those looking for detailed, incisive, and exquisitely nuanced exegesis, resulting in a clearer, deeper, and more informed appreciation of the recent advances in Jesus studies, and their significance for theology today.
