Jesus by Michael Grant
An Historian's Review of the Gospels
A historian applies rigorous critical methods to the Gospel narratives to reconstruct what can reasonably be known about a first‑century Jewish teacher within the social, political, and religious world of Roman Palestine. The study weighs the authenticity of sayings and deeds, examines themes such as the Kingdom of God, miracles, and the “Son of Man,” and traces the path to crucifixion under Pontius Pilate. Separating historical probabilities from theological interpretation, it offers a cautious yet coherent portrait of a charismatic figure whose followers’ convictions propelled a movement that reshaped history.
