As an appreciative but critical commentary on the four Bible Gospels, this is consequently, and most importantly, an in-depth study of the Gospel portrayals of Jesus himself.
Although not the first commentator to conclude that Jesus was simply a human being like the rest of us, Leslie Scrase's analysis of the Gospels, written following many years of study, looks for the evidence that provides proof of this. Whilst he nevertheless concludes that Jesus was a fine teacher and faith healer, his reasoning, taken from the different approaches to the man's life reported within the Gospels, is stimulating and entirely free of dogma.
The final evaluation of Jesus, taken from these Gospels, written by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, all depicting the life of Jesus, is that, even though some of the teachings ascribed to him are pretty awful by today's standards, much of his teaching is timeless in its quality and remains of universal value and application.
