DOWNLOAD EBOOKJesus Christ is arguably the most famous man who ever lived. His image adorns countless churches, icons, and paintings. He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art. Everyone can conjure an image of Jesus: usually as a handsome, white man with flowing locks and pristine linen robes. But what did Jesus really look like? Is our popular image of Jesus overly westernized and untrue to historical reality? This question continues to fascinate. Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different vision of this most famous of men. He may even have had short hair.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAlfred Edersheim's 'Life and Times of Jesus the Messiah' is a comprehensive and scholarly examination of the life of Jesus Christ, providing a detailed account of the historical context in which Jesus lived and the events that shaped his ministry. Edersheim's work is known for its meticulous research, engaging narrative style, and extensive use of ancient sources, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the historical Jesus. The book delves into the religious, political, and social landscape of first-century Palestine, shedding light on the cultural milieu in which Jesus carried out his teachings and miracles. Edersheim's thorough exploration of the life of Jesus is not only informative but also deeply insightful, offering readers a deeper understanding of the person of Jesus and the significance of his mission. Alfred Edersheim, a respected biblical scholar and minister, was well-versed in Jewish history and culture, which greatly informed his writing. His background in theology and biblical studies enabled him to provide a nuanced and compelling portrayal of Jesus' life and times. I highly recommend 'Life and Times of Jesus the Messiah' to readers seeking a thoughtful and in-depth study of the historical Jesus, as Edersheim's work remains a classic in the field of biblical scholarship.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBen F. Meyer once wrote, "Radical developments generally take place not by someone's seeing something new but by his seeing everything in a new way." This book is Michael Vicko Zolondek's attempt to bring Meyer's words to fruition. For more than two hundred years, scholars have been debating whether the historical Jesus took up the role of Davidic Messiah. In this book, Zolondek addresses this long-standing question in a fresh and unique way. He challenges a generation of scholarship by arguing that the manner in which it has gone about answering the Davidic messianic question is significantly problematic when considered in the light of Jesus' cultural context and the messianism of his day. This cultural context and messianism then forms the basis for Zolondek's fresh approach to the Davidic messianic question, which he ultimately answers in the affirmative. In this book, readers will not only be exposed to more than forty years of research on the Davidic messianic question, but they will come away with a unique understanding of what it means to be a Davidic Messiah and what it would have looked like for Jesus to have taken up that role.
