The elusive Messiah a philosophical overview of the quest for the historical Jesus

What might the findings of researchers engaged in the quest for the historical Jesus mean to Christians? In posing this question and others, The Elusive Messiah opens a window for looking anew at the age old problem of faith vs. reason. To fully understand the implications of the historical search, Raymond Martin suggests we must first examine the inquiries of the individual scholars. In the book's first section, he provides an insightful overview into the major players who have written on the subject, among them E.P. Sanders, John Meier, Elizabeth Schussler Fiorenza, J.D. Crossan.
