Alexander or Jesus?

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

Foreword

“If the reader is willing to take this journey with Canon Broad, then there is much of value to be learned from this book. Alexander or Jesus? Both, in their own way, can be said to be the most significant figures to have come down to us from Graeco-Roman antiquity, and each have had their biographers, the evangelists in the case of Jesus, and Plutarch, among others, in the case of Alexander. As exemplified in his Parallel Lives, Plutarch's method, Canon Broad reminds us, 'was to take two famous figures of history and contrast them. By comparing Alexander with Julius Caesar, he produced for both lives that are rich in history and legend.' By comparing Alexander with Jesus, and the history and legend that surround each, Canon Broad himself has followed in the footsteps of his illustrious predecessor.”

“Buchanan brings a lifetime of experience and expertise to the foundational and far-reaching theme of the covenant. Exploring the legal, historical, theological, social, ethical, political, and eschatological dimensions of this scriptural concept, he brings light to issues that have long taxed the experts. In seeking understanding of such a complex subject, the reader can be in no better hands.”
