Title: I didn't like this one much
Review: Witherington outlines the many different views of the Jesus Quest on who Jesus was and cites a few authors for each view. He just goes a little too far in trashing the opinions of his fellow scholars (many of which are better than him). The most valuable part of this book was the list of authors he has in his table of contents. Marcus Borg, John Dominic Crossan, Burton Mack, E.P. Sanders, Geza Vermes, Gerd Thiessen, Richard Horsley, Elizabeth Scussler Fiorenza, and the Jesus Seminar. Read these authors instead of wasting your time reading about what Witherington THINKS about each of them.
