Items related to Son of Man: New Life of Christ
Jesus of Nazareth - a truly unique and fascinating figure whose story remains one of the most enduring of all time. No one can deny the profound impact that this one individual has had on world history - and that he continues to have on millions of people.
Son of Man: A New Life of Christ is a timely book for the end of the twentieth century. Never before has Western culture shown so much open interest in spirituality, and alongside the rise of New Age thinking has come renewed interest in the intriguing person of Jesus.
What is the truth about Jesus? What was he really like? What was his teaching? And what was he asking of the rest of us? Can we trust what the Bible says about him? And even if we can, how can we begin to assess it all for ourselves?
These questions - and others like them - are all addressed in Son of Man. Writing in a readable style, John Drane takes full account of the new understandings that have been emerging in recent theological scholarship, especially regarding the world in which Jesus lived and his relationship to the Jewish faith of his day. In a word, Drane offers here a clear presentation of the life of Jesus against the backdrop of his times.
Drane's narrative is enhanced throughout by numerous illustrations, including helpful charts and maps and striking color photographs by Sonia Halliday. The words and pictures here combine to make this book an informative, beautiful work.
