The lovable New Testament scholar - writing easily digestible books summarizing prevailing New Testament scholarship ideas (particularly the Jesus as apocalyptic prophet theory) for laypeople. In the process, pissing off the theological wing of Biblical scholarship, leading to many 'response' books.
Anybody else a fan? I just got "When Jesus Became God" but haven't cracked it open yet, but found Misquoting Jesus and Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet of the New Millennium to be fantastic reads. Anybody else I should read on the subject?
