دانلود کتاب The Historical Bejeezus

Despite its whimsical title, THE HISTORICAL BEJEEZUS is a work of serious scholarship. Dr. Robert M. Price has brought up to date the work of Albert Schweitzer who, early in the last century, presented a series of critical reviews of efforts to construct biographies of a would-be messiah named Jesus. Although Schweitzer simply concluded that it was probably impossible to know anything for certain about any historical reality behind the legendary New Testament character, he never denied the historicity of Jesus. Price, however, surveys the dismally unsuccessful effort of post-Schweitzer scholars and decides it's time to pay attention to some scholars who say that no biography of any "historical Jesus" can be written for the simple reason that no such character ever existed. Price himself is one of America's most prominent Christ-myth scholars.
