The Beloved Son as Tantalizing Teacher

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Carl Roemer has a passion to understand Jesus of Nazareth within the historical, economic, social, and religious contexts of late antiquity. His perspective is helpful for anyone who wants to avoid a mere sentimental view of the ‘Beloved Son.’ Roemer’s years of study are shared with readers, allowing them to visit and interact with Jesus’ contemporaries. Both scholars and Bible students will benefit from an immersion that allows both a broad review as well as new and poignant insights.”
