Jesus and Liberal New Testament Scholarship

A series of articles by Dr. Gregory A. Boyd concerning the ‘Jesus Seminar’, a group of biblical scholars whose controversial claims about Jesus and early Christianity have been frequently featured in the media.

1. Naturalism and the Historical Jesus
2. The Uniqueness of Jesus
3. Did Jesus Rise From the Dead?
   
4. Are The Gospels Reliable?
   
5. Finding An Alternative Jesus

These articles are largely based on Dr. Boyd's book, Jesus Under Seige (Victor, 1995, now out of print), a popular-level introduction to the issues.  A fuller treatment may be found in his larger work, Cynic, Sage or Son of God? - Jesus in an Age of Revisionist Replies (Victor, 1995).
