| Riepilogo: | Seeking the Identity of Jesus seeks to look at Jesus through ecclesial and theological lenses and to be responsive to the very different presentations of Jesus’ identity in the canonical Gospels. This raises questions about how far some of the aspects of Jesus to be found in the Gospels can be accommodated within an ecclesial view and how selective scholars in this volume are in the aspects of Jesus on which they focus. Jesus’ activity as an exorcist, noted in some at least of the essays, is not easily accommodated within many ecclesial perspectives. The considerable attention given to Jesus’ thoroughgoing Jewishness in recent scholarship stands in sharp contrast to much traditional church teaching about Jesus. It is also notable that this book is very much a European/North American pilgrimage, which may be reflected in the paucity of attention given to Jesus’ concern for the poor. |
