Description
Jesus the Priest by Nicholas Perrin explores a new perspective on the historical Jesus, focusing on his role as priest. This study argues that Jesus' claims to be the high priest and his teachings on the kingdom are mutually confirming and authenticating. Perrin examines critically assured sayings of Jesus to understand how his priestly office relates to his announcement of the kingdom of God. He shows how Jesus saw himself as the local embodiment of Yahweh, and how this understanding gave shape to his teachings on worship and true devotion. Through a close analysis of Jesus' words, Perrin sheds new light on the nature of the kingdom and its relationship to his priestly office.
