Mythologizing Jesus
Dennis MacDonald shows how Gospel stories parallel many Greek and Roman epics--from walking on water to visiting the land of the dead--to compel first-century readers into life-changing decisions to follow Jesus. MacDonald doesn't call into question the existence of Jesus but rather asks readers to examine the Gospels through a new, mythological lens.
