The Sage From Galilee by Alan Flusser
Rediscovering Jesus' Genius
A scholarly yet accessible portrait of Jesus as a first-century Jewish sage whose teachings are rooted in the language, Scriptures, and legal debates of Second Temple Judaism. Drawing on early Jewish sources, it reconstructs his parables and aphorisms, highlighting his devotion to Israel’s God, ethical radicalism, and charismatic authority. Distinguishing his original voice from later church theology, it situates him within Pharisaic discourse and shows how his message of the kingdom, repentance, and mercy sparked a movement while remaining deeply Jewish.
