What did he actually say and do, as contrasted with what early Christians (e.g., Paul and the Gospel writers) believed that he said and did? What did the man Jesus actually think of himself and of his mission, as contrasted with the messianic and even divine claims that the New Testament makes about him? In short, what are the differences—and continuities—between the Jesus who lived and died in history and the Christ who lives on in believers’ faith? Over the last four decades historical scholarship on Jesus and his times—whether conducted by Jews, Christians, or non-believers—has arrived at a strong consensus about what this undeniably historical figure (born ca. 4 BCE, died ca. 30 CE) said and did, and how he presented himself and his message to his Jewish audience. Often that historical evidence about Jesus does not easily dovetail with the traditional doctrines of Christianity. How then might one adjudicate those conflicting claims? This is a course about history, not about faith or theology. It will examine the best available literary and historical evidence about Jesus and his times and will discuss methodologies for interpreting that evidence, in order to help participants make their own judgments and draw their own conclusions. en-us Education no Historical Jesus - Audio - Call Me Yeshua - Opening lecture of Thomas Sheehan's Continuing Studies course, The Historical Jesus. 1292894563 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 23:24:15 GMT Education Thomas Sheehan 1:40:19 no Historical Jesus - Audio - Kingdom and Catastrophe - A history of Israel. 1292747961 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 23:24:15 GMT Education Thomas Sheehan 1:34:31 no Historical Jesus - Audio - Left Behind - The first century of Christianity. 1292861814 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 23:24:10 GMT Education Thomas Sheehan 1:33:23 no Historical Jesus - Audio - "Pealing" the Onion - From the Gospels and Paul back to Yeshua. 1292488998 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 23:24:07 GMT Education Thomas Sheehan 1:35:44 no Historical Jesus - Audio - Apocalypse Now - From the Baptist to the Kingdom. 1292652027 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 23:24:04 GMT Education Thomas Sheehan 1:33:23 no Historical Jesus - Audio - Words and Wonders - The ways of a prophet. 1292894546 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 23:24:03 GMT Education Thomas Sheehan 1:49:03 no Historical Jesus - Audio - The Empire Unleashed - Passion and death. 1292878192 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 23:24:27 GMT Education Thomas Sheehan 1:37:18 no Historical Jesus - Audio - Crisis and Continuity - The making of a martyr. 1292845428 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 23:24:33 GMT Education Thomas Sheehan 1:40:26 no Historical Jesus - Audio - Apocalypse to Come - Awakening the prophet. 1291522393 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 23:24:39 GMT Education Thomas Sheehan 1:36:56 no Historical Jesus - Audio - Resurrection - Rewriting history. 1292717168 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 23:24:39 GMT Education Thomas Sheehan 1:25:53 no Historical Jesus - Audio - The Historical Jesus Course Syllabus 1297459218 Mon, 01 Oct 2007 23:29:19 GMT Education Thomas Sheehan 0:00:00 no
