Many have thought that the book simply restates the perennial questions that plague humankind in a world full of suffering

and it’s a feast for my heart

The New Testament places the church at the centre of its practical vision of the Christian life and at the heart of the Great Commission

The Shadow of the Galilean: The Quest of the Historical Jesus in Narrative Form ol-textbooks-nt-001-greek-1-briones fellows for collegesFirst published in 1987 by Fortress Press, this 20th anniversary edition of this classic bestseller includes a new Afterword from the author. Here, in narrative form, is an account of the activity of Jesus of Nazareth, scrupulously constructed so that it does not undercut the insights of New Testament scholarship. What makes it different from other such attempts is that Jesus never actually appears. What we find everywhere is his shadow, his effect.
