Description

Jesus (Oxford Readers) This comprehensive Oxford Reader presents a diverse range of documents that have shaped responses to Jesus over 2,000 years. With over 340 extracts, it brings together familiar material from key texts alongside lesser-known devotional, historical-critical, philosophical, and mystical sources. The collection includes poetry, songs, plays, polemics, commentaries, manifestos, treatises, letters, novels, liturgies, and creeds from various Christian, Jewish, Islamic, Hindu, Buddhist, and Zoroastrian traditions. This rich tapestry of responses to Jesus offers a nuanced understanding of the complex ways in which the figure has been perceived and interpreted. By exploring these diverse perspectives, readers can gain a deeper appreciation for the enduring impact of Jesus on human thought and culture.
