Jesus Criteria and the Demise of Authenticity

"Is it possible to recover an "authentic" Jesus from the narrative representations of him? In the past, scholars have used criteria of authenticity to perform just a task. This book demonstrates that these criteria, which have stood at the heart of previous "Quests" for the historical Jesus, must be either abandoned or significantly reconfigured. The authors argue that business as usual in Jesus research is over." --Back cover.
