The Essential Jesus by Crossan, John Dominic
Original Sayings and Earliest Images
A concise, illustrated study that distills what may be the earliest sayings of Jesus and pairs them with some of the oldest Christian images to illuminate his original message. Through brief commentary and historical analysis, it portrays a nonviolent wisdom teacher proclaiming God’s kingdom as a present, socially transformative reality—centered on compassion, radical inclusivity, and justice—challenging entrenched hierarchies through parables and open table fellowship.
