Review of Henning Graf Reventlow’s “The Authority of the Bible and the Rise of the Modern World” from the Westminster Theological Journal 49.1 (Spring 1987)

Book review: ‘With a theologian’s care and a pastor’s concern, Joseph Ratzinger-now Pope Benedict XVI-desires us to behold the face of Jesus. Ratzinger’s Jesus of Nazareth is the first volume of a projected two. As the subtitle indicates, this volume covers Jesus’ life, from his baptism through his transfiguration. The second volume will reflect upon the infancy narratives as well as Jesus’ passion, death, and resurrection.’
