Synopsis

As Apostles and contemporary religious figures wrote about Jesus, they had many questions. Who was this man who claimed to be the Son of God? Was he the prophesized Messiah, a rebel, or a charlatan?

To find answers outside Jesus's own teachings, writers looked to their sacred scriptures—the Old Testament. What they found influenced their own writings on Christ and continue to affect our view of the Son of God today.

In Jesus for the Common Man, theologian Dermot J. Keary skillfully explains the Old Testament's teachings on Christ, writing with the average person in mind. No theological degree is necessary—just an earnest interest in Christ and sacred scripture.

The second half of the book examines aspects of Christianity many take as unerring truth. As Keary reduces these stories to their simple facts, their real power becomes more and more evident.

An entertaining read for anyone interested in Christ, Keary's exploration of scripture is especially appealing to those who find themselves doubting their faith. Jesus for the Common Man is for all those who demand information about Jesus in words they can understand and believe.
