This book traces the development of Jesus' teachings from their origins in Jewish tradition to their transformation in the following centuries under the influence of Hellenistic thought. The author argues that the gospel of Jesus was not a wholly new religion, but rather a reinterpretation of existing Jewish beliefs in light of new insights and experiences. The author also examines the ways in which the gospel was shaped by the intellectual and cultural currents of the Hellenistic world, including Greek philosophy and the mystery religions.
