Yeshua: A Reinterpretation of Jesus

The image of Jesus that prevails in many contemporary interpretations is often at odds with the historical record and the spirit of his own teachings. This book attempts to correct this imbalance, presenting a more accurate and nuanced portrait of Yeshua, the historical figure, as opposed to the Christ of later theological interpretations, particularly those filtered through the lens of Pauline epistles.

By focusing on Yeshua’s interactions with marginalized groups, his radical critique of religious authority, and his unwavering commitment to love, compassion, and forgiveness, we can unveil a figure whose teachings resonate profoundly with a progressive social and spiritual worldview. This is not a work of apologetics, seeking to defend a specific theological position, but rather a work of historical and theological inquiry, engaging critically with the available evidence and offering a fresh perspective.
