More about the book

The author reflects on his experiences teaching courses on Jesus' parables and resurrection stories in 1969. He explores the intriguing similarities between these narratives, questioning whether the resurrection accounts were intended as parables rather than historical events. This examination prompts a deeper consideration of how these stories have been interpreted, suggesting that readers may have misunderstood their true nature by conflating parable with history. The book challenges conventional readings and invites a reevaluation of these foundational texts.
