Jesus and the Victory of God (Christian Origins and the Question of God, Volume 2)

This highly anticipated second volume of N.T. Wright's project on Christian origins focuses directly on the historical Jesus: Who was he? What did he do? What did he say? And what did he mean by it all? It is packed with new insights and controversial proposals, yet supports a much more positive view of Jesus than has been the case with much 20th-century scholarship.
