Others have even argued that Jesus of Nazareth did not think he was God and never claimed to be divine. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe Case for Jesus\u003c\/i\u003e, Dr. Brant Pitre, the bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eJesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist\u003c\/i\u003e, goes back to the sources--the biblical and historical evidence for Christ--in order to answer several key questions, including: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e - Were the four Gospels really anonymous? \u003cbr\u003e - Are the Gospels folklore? Or are they biographies? \u003cbr\u003e - Were the four Gospels written too late to be reliable? \u003cbr\u003e - What about the so-called \"Lost Gospels,\" such as \"Q\" and the Gospel of Thomas? \u003cbr\u003e - Did Jesus claim to be God? \u003cbr\u003e - Is Jesus divine in all four Gospels? Or only in John? \u003cbr\u003e - Did Jesus fulfill the Jewish prophecies of the Messiah? \u003cbr\u003e - Why was Jesus crucified? \u003cbr\u003e - What is the evidence for the Resurrection? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs \u003ci\u003eThe Case for Jesus\u003c\/i\u003e will show, recent discoveries in New Testament scholarship, as well as neglected evidence from ancient manuscripts and the early church fathers, together have the potential to pull the rug out from under a century of skepticism toward the traditional Gospels. Above all, Pitre shows how the divine claims of Jesus of Nazareth can only be understood by putting them in their ancient Jewish context.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBRANT PITRE\u003c\/b\u003e (Ph.D., University of Notre Dame) is Professor of Sacred Scripture at Notre Dame Seminary in New Orleans.
