This is a beautiful and lucid presentation of the development of the Christian theology of the nature and meaning of the person of Jesus. I have not yet been able to check all the references, but from what I know of the early years of Christianity and its split from Judaism, the author takes many relevant texts and traditions into account to develop his picture. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in Jewish/Christian relations and in the development of early Christianity from its Jewish roots.
