In this bold experiment in Christology, Ben Witherington develops a new, indirect method to discern Jesus’ self-understanding.
Using the evangelist’s portrayals of Jesus’ words, deeds, and relationships as avenues of insight, Witherington reveals a Jesus who both understood and disclosed himself in messianic terms, filling traditional terms–Son of man, Son of David, and Messiah–with new content.
