Jesus and His Death - Paperback

Recent scholarship on the historical Jesus has rightly focused upon how Jesus understood his own mission. But no scholarly effort to understand the mission of Jesus can rest content without exploring the historical possibility that Jesus envisioned his own death. In this careful and far-reaching study, Scot McKnight contends that Jesus did in fact anticipate his own death, that Jesus understood his death as an atoning sacrifice, and that his death as an atoning sacrifice stood at the heart of Jesus' own mission to protect his followers from the judgment of God.McKnight, Scot is the author of 'Jesus and His Death - Paperback' with ISBN 9781932792799 and ISBN 1932792791.
