Biographies and Jesus: What Does It Mean for the Gospels to Be Biographies?

This work is a careful and critical study of the biographical information about Jesus of Nazareth.The results of this work must be taken into account in future research into the gospels’ use of sources and historical reliability. Through careful comparative study of the relevant ancient sources, with which many contemporary interpreters are not adequately acquainted, this book shows that the gospels were competently and reliably written.
